1. Cody Rhodes
2. Swerve Strickland
3. Will Ospreay
4. Seth Rollins
5. Tetsuya Naito
6. Damien Priest
7. MJF
8. Jon Moxley
9. Gunther
10. Mistico
Not sure if the full list is out yet. This was just posted on wreddit.
Feel free to discuss. Personally I think Cody is the only choice. Also Swerve jumped from 112 to 2. That is nuts.

Punk made the top 10 while being injured most of the year tbh. I'd also put Drew in there before Swerve or Moxley ...

Even if he lost the belt the night after, ending the modern day Bruno reign guaranteed him #1. Just no way around it.
Mystico, low-key surprised he is still a thing let alone top 10.

Cody is in the right place, but Gunther should be No. 2.

Cody on making it to the top of PWI: “I’m not a wrestler who pretends like the number doesn’t matter. That’s how you can spot a liar right away, if they ever tweet, ‘nobody cares about their number on this list’. We all care".
Dean Malenko would like a word ...

Cody is in the right place, but Gunther should be No. 2. I would disagree because I'm biased about Swerve but even if Gunther finished ahead of him I wouldn't be mad. Gunther is for sure too low on this list. He should have been top 3 without question.

Didn't Roman spend more time at the top doing that time then the top 4?

Roman Reigns isn't anywhere on the list. What the fuck? What am I missing here?
EDIT: According to Kevin McElvaney, Roman was dropped from the list because he didn't wrestle enough matches in the time period. There is a 10 singles match minimum to qualify for the PWI Top 500 and Reigns only wrestled 5 singles matches from July 2023 - July 2024.
Apparently the same thing happened with Brock Lesnar a few years ago.

Mistico is #10? The hell. Admit my wrestling knowledge isn't as vast as many/all of you on here, but blimey Drew not even top 10?
