If I can be Storm Trooper for a Minute
I..... think they got the top 5 right.

Considering the rankings are based on July through June or something like that (Fightful said July 1 2022 through July 31 2023 surprised it'd be a 13 month thing but maybe it is) not surprised Mox is that high up there. He carried AEW at the beginning of the ranking period and has been a steady Star for them all year.

Orange Cassidy in the top 10 is crazy to me. Totally deserving of it by the way.

nitpick time (i dont actually care, I am not upset)

MJF should be higher than vikingo, strength of competition was way higher. Gunther prob should be above Moxley. OC is too low.

Cody should not be on this list

Naito is a lock Top 10 if he wins the IWGP World Title over Sanada at Wrestle Kingdom sucks that the cut off didn't happen later for him. I would say though outside the G1 Climax win which is huge no doubt he's hasn't that big Year with tons of Match of the Year quality Matches lately. It feels like to me he's cruising a little too much right now I feel.
