Top 10 AEW Males 2023

It is time for me to give you 10 of my fave male AEW talents from 2023. This and the Female AEW list were requested, and so here I am to deliver. Enjoy!

10: Mark Briscoe

After the tragic passing of his brother Jay, Mark Briscoe has stepped up and ensured the legacy of Jay carries on and stays strong, with Mark carrying on. He's a great performer and entertainer and has had amazing matches and moments this year. 

9: Jay White

The bang bang gang's leader makes my list after being so entertaining and hard-working, Jay White is one of the best talents on the planet and no doubt in time he will be on the mountain top. 

8: Eddie Kingston

Eddie Kingston is finally getting the gold and recognition after all this time, the dude puts on a hell of a performance and makes everything blurred feeling so real. He's a hell of a guy and after winning the ROH world title he is here on the list. 

7: Daniel Garcia

The pro wrestler and dragon slayer dances his way onto the list, he's a tough cookie, and he continues to walk the line of sports entertainer and pro wrestler.

6: Christian

Silence for our Father figure is here haaha yes, Christian has certainly made the rounds and improved himself to extraordinary levels this year, all by adopting some young talent with no dads and being the ultimate villain. 

5: Samoa Joe

The most dominant ROH tv champ in history is here, I have loved Joe for years and this year he's had a great push and even if it was weird for him to drop his roh title just to fight max one more time, it's also cool because he's a shark in a small tank, and he wants to go eat bigger prey. 

4: John Moxley

No list would be complete without the Mox himself, Honestly every top 10 AEW talent list should always include Mox somewhere, he is an absolute unit!

3: Orange Cassidy

The careless fighting champion who is freshly squeezed, he has held the international title twice and defended it for 326 days and that equals over 30 opponents! He has worked effortlessly defending his title and being banged up and then coming back healed after losing his title only to win it back, and he's still defending it as of writing haha. 

2: Swerve Strickland

Top rope catch a vibe, because I swerve when I drive! WHO'S HOUSE?! SWERVE'S HOUSE! So his feud's have been incredible and Swerve continues to improve and build and get bigger and bigger with each time he sets foot in any arena. His recent Hangman feud was insane, and their death match was a mega contender for match of the year, there's no way to not have Swerve anywhere else on my list than right here. I can't wait for him to go beef it up with MJF.

1: MJF

He's our Scumbag, and he is number 1 here on my list. What can we say about Max? He's a megastar, hard-working, great moves, stories and promos' that hit out of this world. Max holds the longest aew world title reign and his character is ever evolving and so layered and his stories and feuds this year has been outstanding, and I can't wait for more. 

That concludes my AEW lists, thanks for visiting my blog and reading these posts :)

Stay shiny!

Top 10 AEW Females 2023

Aew has a stacked roster and I was recently asked about who are my fave female wrestlers in AEW, 

So here are my top 10 of this year :)

10: Jade Cargill

The longest reigning TBS champ and also with a long reigning undefeated streak, Jade left AEW earlier this year for new pastures and no doubt she will be an even bigger success.

9: D.M.D. Britt Baker

Of course, I will put Britt on my list, she is an exceptional talent, and although we have seen less of her the past few months, she certainly is a staple in AEW.

8: Taya Valkyrie

Although Taya has been around for years and a fave of mine since appearing in TNA, she has gone to AEW this year and made a nice impact....no pun intended.

7: Skye Blue

A new talent that first emerged full of smiles and with lots of internet love for her *ahem* "asset" but since feuding with Julia Hart she has been getting darker and more violent and rocks a new look at the moment. A great athlete and even more mysterious gimmick.

6: Willow Nightingale

Another relatively new talent, Willow has exploded on the scene with her bold yet friendly nature and loveable smile and personality, I am happy enough to list her here as she has impressed me throughout her time.

5: Saraya

Saraya had an amazing moment this year in AEW ALL IN London unfortunately it was not capitalized up on. She still has it and is a draw.

4: Hikaru Shida

Shida is always a phenomenal talent, and she always deserves to be on any AEW womens list.

3: Kris Statlander

Since returning from injury and beating the undefeated TBS champ, Kris has been on fire and keeps getting better with each defence.

2: Julia Hart

A cheerleader turned into a dark and gothic, mysterious force of nature with The House Of Black. I am happy she won the TBS title recently, she has been built up so well and gets better and better every week. She is also AEW's youngest champion in history at just 22 years old.

1:Toni Storm

It's Toni's world, and we are clearly living in it. The descent into her madness and Hollywood stardom has been incredible, and in a short time she has run up 3 title reigns as AEW women's champ.

That is my list all done, look out for my top 10 tag teams and AEW Male Wrestlers lists, both coming out soon! Thanks for reading and visiting, Stay Shiny!

Top 10 Wrestling Tag Teams 2023

2023 is drawing to an end, and so I was asked to name some of my fave wrestlers of the year, and so this list is all about those tag teams that have stood out to me and I have enjoyed the most this year. This list will not be featuring tag teams from NJPW or other British or other indie companies purely because I do not watch a lot of them as compared to WWE, AEW & TNA.

10: DIY

Recently reformed and as good as ever.

9: The Creed Brothers aka Diamond Mine

Now, it's taken me a long time to like these boys, but the past few months they have come into their own and their current main roster run has been insane!

8: Imperium

Imperium is an absolute unit, with the ring general leading the team, they are one of the most dominant teams today. 

7: Sami & Ko

Of course when these two come together it's gold, glad to see them team in wwe. 

6: Bullet Club Gold

The Bang Bang Gang are absolutely extraordinarily talented wrestlers and are so entertaining also, shoutout to Cardblade haha. 

5: Bullet Club ABC

Ace and Bay are an insanely talented team full of speed and aggression, and honestly they are one of the hottest teams around and are always a joy to watch. 

4: FTR

FTR have always been dominant champions where ever they have gone, and they continue this today. 

3: The Acclaimed

Entertaining, fun, funny, strong and athletic the acclaimed have it all, so SCISSOR ME DADDY ASS!!!

2: House Of Black

A brickhouse, a follower, a wraith and a leader of darkness make up the highly mysterious, interesting and dangerous team of the House Of Black and the house always wins.

1: The Judgment Day

I love this team, it's all of my fave wrestlers in one group and the dark edge to them is always fascinating to see play out also the fact they hold a lot of the wwe gold is something special. 

That's my list, other wrestling lists are on the way, and you can find lots more on my blog.

Top 10 Yakuza Game Songs!

Now, the past few years I have become a mega fan of one Kiryu-Chan and of course Majima-San and all the rest of the ragtag crue. The Yakuza games are a series of seriousness with comedic sub-stories and moments amongst an ever-growing and evolving, tense story of the Japanese mob. I will be picking 10 of my fave songs across the series today. If your fave is not on the list then prepare to attack me randomly at any time just like Majima would haha.

10: 24 Hour Cinderella

Kicking off the list with Majima covering this lovely upbeat pop ballad with his sparkly fun uniform.

9: Friday Night

Who remembers dancing to this absolute mega banger on the dance floor in Yakuza 0. It's so damn good!

8: Majima Construction Song

Everyone, please raise for our national anthem! Need I say more? We are Majima construction, we build shit!

7: Akuma No Jigokunabe

I love metal and this is the most metal song in the series, and it's a great song!

6: Harapeko Biyori

I love the chill nature of this song and also how culturally diverse it is. Lovely song. I feel like I could happily defuse a device with this one.

5: Get Them

Alright looks like Mr Beat Em Up wants to go 1v1 yet again, show him who's boss and take all his money and whatever you do.....DON'T HOLD.....BACK!!!!

4: Funk Goes on

Alright there are a bunch of guys standing in your way and the objective, what do you do if you can't go under or over them? GO THROUGH THEM!!!! The ultimate hype fight song!

3: Sayonara Silent Night

A recent entry to the series but oh my god, I fell in love with it in an instant, and it's so beautiful, it makes me teary-eyed, I don't want to say goodbye to our best boy Kiryu anytime soon.

2: Bakamitai

Of course, our fave boy Kiryu-Chan singing this created a strong meme, and it's also a beautiful song and Kiryu's rendition is powerful. Raise your lighters up and sing along now, Dame Da Ne.

1: JUDGEMENT

To not have this in at first place would easily be considered....BREAKING THE LAW!!! WE'RE BREAKING THE WORLD! Kiryu and his brotherly bond with Nishki covering this is just unmatched, and I love the energy in the song given from them and just the song overall.

And that is my list, go check out the Yakuza and Like A Dragon games please, they are phenomenal.

Thanks for visiting my blog and reading my lists, I appreciate it, now go be like a dragon and stay shiny!

If anything were to happen to me :(

Please keep me forever alive, in some form or fashion. Preserve my tattoos. Keep them safe, I paid good money for those. 

Log into my social media and announce the sad news and update my pages. Keep them alive. Think of me and my work in blogging and content creating on tiktok and YouTube. 

Publish any drafts. Finish any videos on my playstation or memory sticks. Please complete any of my games for me. Do something in my memory set something up. 

Hopefully I made a Spotify playlist to be made available for play at the wake and funeral. 

To my friends, I love you all please be safe and keep my memory strong. Do something I'd do every single day! If any of my friends has a baby boy please put my name in there somewhere carry my name on. 

To my Mrs, I love you so much, I wish to be holding you in my arms forever and kissing those gorgeous delicate lips for eternity. Have what you want or need of me, keep a piece of me forever with you in some form or fashion and if we have kids please just keep them and yourself safe. Daddy loves you all. 

I don't want to go. I don't want to leave you all. Hopefully people are waiting to see me and remember me in the world of heaven or Valhalla or both, why don't I venture between the realms? Haha. If anyone I don't like or who is fake to me shows up at my funeral, I will haunt you. 

Hopefully I don't leave the world until I'm 1000 years old, hopefully I'll have children and great ones and great great ones and so on. Hopefully I'll have a son and daughter who will love me and adore me and will carry on my legacy and dreams with them.
