1.
first time he�s been ranked in the Indy Power Rankings and with
his first ranking, comes a #1 ranking. Hard to argue with him at
#1 after he won the very prestigious New Japan G1 Climax
Tournament, finishing it off this week by defeating Hirooki Goto
on 8/4, Lance Archer on 8/6, Minoru Suzuki on 8/8, and then
Nakamura on 8/10 in the Finals. While many would debate whether
New Japan is in fact an independent promotion, by our standards
in 2014, he qualified and took home the top spot. Next year, ALL
New Japan will be eligible. For now, it�s only the talent that
has wrestled in the U.S., Canada, or Europe in 2014. Tied for #2
in the online poll.
2.
been broken, but it was a struggle to bump him out of the #1
spot this week. After all of his wins in recent weeks, he picked
up 2 more including another title in the Mid-Atlantic Junior
Heavyweight Title after 2 wins over Sigmon this week. While his
streak has been broken, this high ranking just adds more points
to his 2014 IPR 100 ranking and can only start pushing him
higher and higher up the Top 100 with just a few months to go.
3.
this �monsta� refuses to lose. He has been ranked every week for
a couple of months now. The IWA World Champion doesn�t just win
at IWA, he wins anywhere and everywhere he goes. Strong Style
Wrestling was no different over the weekend as he defeated D1W
Champion Madman Pondo to prove that he is the true king of the
Midwest right now. After that, he defeated John Wayne Murdoch to
retain his title on 8/10 in a fantastic contest. If you�re in
this beast�s way, it�s time to get the hell out of the way. He�s
not stopping any time soon. Tied for #2 in the online poll.
4.
the Top 10, but he forced his way in after winning the First
Annual JC Bailey Memorial Tournament at CCW on 8/9. On top of
that, he finished off his weekend with a victory vs. Harry
Palmer at IWA Mid-South on 8/10. While he stays mostly in the
Midwest, he has had a stellar 2014, racking up wins and titles
where ever he goes. Time will tell if he can keep this pace up
as he has been competing almost every weekend for several months
now.
5.
10 jumps in with both feet after an outstanding weekend where
she beat Martin Kirby for the SWE Speed King Title on 8/9. That
same day she defeated Kris Travis by DQ and then finished off
the weekend on 8/10, retaining the title vs. Robbie X, Jimmy
Havoc, & Zak Northern. It was a strong 3-0 weekend for her and a
great start for her to possibly start climbing up the rankings
in the future. We hope to see more to come from this rising
star! #8 in the online poll.
6.
chance at a 3-0 weekend but was unable to make the AIW show on
8/8 and thus ended up going 2-0 instead. On 8/9 he teamed with
Jimmy Jacobs to defeat Caprice Coleman and Takaaki Watanabe and
then �Mr. IWA� went to IWA Mid-South on 8/10 where he won a #1
Contender�s Match, defeating Ace Perry, Gary Jay, Reed Bentley,
and Shane Mercer. He has the IWA World Title in his sights, but
standing in his way will be the monstrous Kongo Kong!
7.
ROH World Champion as it was kind of a battle of champions as it
was Elgin, the ROH and AIW Absolute Champ taking on PWX and
WrestleForce Champ Cedric Alexander on 8/9. In the end,
�Unbreakable� Michael Elgin came out on top and got ranked yet
again. While he�s not working the breakneck schedule he was at
the beginning of the year, he is defending the ROH World Title
every chance he gets. He�s currently sitting at #2 in the IPR
100 after coming in at #1 last year. He has a few months left to
sneak back into that #1 spot!
8.
been seen in the IPR Top 10 for several months, but after some
success at NOAH over the weekend he returned with a bang. First
he defeated Hajime Ohara and Jinzo on 8/8 in a 3 Way at NOAH and
then won a 13 Man Battle Royal the same day. It was that
combined with him winning 5 of his last 6 matches that helped
get him ranked this week. It will be interesting to see how he
fares in PWG�s Battle of Los Angeles coming up.
9.
it was for the former Drew McIntyre as on his first night at
EVOLVE he knocked off Chris Hero to win the title there. He then
went on to defeat Anthony Nese to retain the title, before
finally losing to Ricochet the last day, which isn�t exactly a
bad loss considering Ricochet is sitting in the driver�s seat
for #1 in the IPR 100 this year. This former WWE star is making
big waves and after his huge weekend at EVOLVE it will be
enjoyable to see what he can do from here. #9 in the online
poll.
10.
Hybrid Champion proved once again how important the fan poll was
this week as she squeaked into the Top 10. She was tied with
John Greed at the end of the day, but her higher vote total in
the fan poll pushed her above Greed for the #10 spot this week.
It was a solid 2-0 week for the new champ and if she can
continue this momentum, it won�t be her last time cracking the
Top 10. #5 in the online poll.
People�s Champ. Bill Black/Will White (@BBlackWrestling)-One of
the most unique characters in all of Canada retained his Squared
Circle Live Premier Title on 8/10 vs. Ashley Sixx and then took
that success to the online vote where he came from behind to
secure the People�s Champ award this week.

Honorable Mention. John Greed (@greedwrestling)-He had a big 3-0
week, but fell just short of making the Top 10 as he didn�t
quite have enough fan votes to push him past Beautiful Beaa this
week. Strong showing by the Canadian talent this week, overall.
