    I like the way Anderson is rated higher than both Mysterio and Punk. And obviously JTG is far more talented than Kota Ibushi. I couldn't agree more that Kane is the 4th best wrestler overall, and Miz's iconic title reign snagged him that top spot easily. The PWI guys definitely aren't a bunch of clowns, that's for sure.

    Apparently both Heath Slater & Tommy Steamer are better than Prince Devitt. Petey Williams is there too hasn't he retired,I haven't heard a thing about him since he left tna,miss the Destroyer so much.

    Lads, out of curiosity (because I don't know any others, if there are any other then Devitt and Sheamus) how many Irish are on the list overall?

    The list is based off who had the biggest year in kayfabe. Miz easily tops that list, given he had a multimonth WWE title reign and headlined (and won) at Mania.

    its a kayfabe listing to be fair, if you are looking at matches, decent three way with morrison and cena in a cage last may, some nice matches with lawler, their match on raw i thought was much much better than it should have been, couple of good matches with danielson (best was probably night of champions)

    from a kayfabe standpoint, his achievements last 12 months

    *beat r-truth for us title at fatal 4 ppv in june
    *won mitb in july
    *feud with bryan danielson which was really good in august/september, probably last feud for that belt anyone cared about to be honest
    *cash in mitb in november and went on to hold the wwe title for 160 days (the longest reign since 2008)
    * big feud with cena which resulted in mainevent at mania
    *got riley over by association

    would i have him top last 12 months, no, does he deserve to be in top 5 more than randy orton or kane :eek:, yes for sure

    Barrett was involved in the biggest angle on the biggest show for months, main eventing pay per views against top guys. Christian didn't do much in terms of kayfabe for the timeframe in question; he won the B title at a PPV he wasn't supposed to be on until the week before and lost it the next show.

    With Orton, I guess he's looked stronger than Cena over the last few months, coming out of all his feuds smelling like roses....

    Kane:
    Won Money in the Bank
    Won the World title and had multi-month title reign.
    High profile feud with Undertaker, which saw him get multiple wins (nearly unheard of against Taker)
    Won Tag Team titles and had multi-month title reign.

    My initial reaction was "wtf" as well but looking back, Kane had a dominant few months...
