1.
did we ever get it! Over the weekend, we saw some very good
performances, but no one that really DOMINATED a weekend enough
to be considered a clear cut #1…except for this talented lady.
She answered the question as to whether we need separate
rankings for women by becoming the first ever woman to be ranked
#1 after winning the QPW Women’s Tournament on 9/13. It was a
hell of a victory for a hell of a talent. Regardless of gender,
she absolutely earned her #1 ranking this week with wins over
Kahmora, Heidi Lovelace, and Joey Ryan on 9/14. Congrats to her!
#6 in the online poll.
2.
bouncing around the Top 10 a bit without a very high ranking of
note, but that all changed after the weekend he just had. First,
he defeated Rich Swann to retain the title on 9/13 and then he
defeated Roderick Strong in a non-title match (that he requested
to be a title match to no avail) on 9/14. He’s obviously a
fighting champion and this will continue to help his rankings in
the future. More good things are obviously on the horizon for
this WWE superstar.#7 in the online poll.
3.
we’ve seen his name in the Top 10, but he’s sitting in the #3
spot in the IPR 100 right now for a reason. He wins more often
than not, quite frankly. This past weekend he defeated Jimmy
Jacobs at AAW on 9/12 and then retained his DREAMWAVE Title in a
dream “Cage vs. Cage Match” vs. Brian Cage on 9/13. It was one
hell of a weekend for unquestionably one of the best in the
Midwest. There’s very little that “Money” hasn’t accomplished so
far in 2014.
4.
in terms of wins and losses (and subsequently a lack of
rankings) he’s starting to get on a roll now. He is 5-0 the last
3 weeks after defeating Adam Thornstowe at QPW on 9/13. The PWG
World Champion and ˝ of the ROH World Tag Team Champions is
really starting to make his mark and in doing so, he’s steadily
climbing that IPR 100 ladder. With just a few months left, we’ll
see what kind of progress he can make in singles before the end
of the year. Tied for #9 in the online poll.
5.
when she won the Luna Vachon Cup at Vendetta Pro. It was an
impressive performance as she defeated Kikyo Nakamaura, Sage Sin
Supreme, Laura Palmer, and Andrea the Giant in a Rumble Gauntlet
to be crowned the winner of the cup. This is surprisingly her
first ranking, but not surprisingly it’s a very good one as she
has been doing a fantastic job making a name for herself on the
West Coast. Now that she’s got some momentum and a ranking on
her side, it will be interesting to see what she can accomplish
the rest of the way in 2014. #4 in the online poll with 49
votes.
6.
notably absent for the last several months after dominating the
early part of 2014. At EVOLVE over the weekend, he had one of
the better showings as he defeated Ricochet clean in the middle
of the ring on 9/13 and then followed that up by winning the
DGUSA Open the United Gate Tag Team Titles with Anthony Nese
from the Bravado Brothers in a 3 Way also involving Rich Swann &
AR Fox on 9/14. It was the type of weekend that got Konley right
back on the IPR radar and it’s most definitely something to
build on for the former PWX & WrestleForce Champion. #8 in the
online poll.
7.
up in the Top 10 nearly as much as it did in 2013, his weekend
was inarguably as “good as gold.” On 9/13 he outlasted a slew of
other talented competitors in the DREAMWAVE Good As Gold Rumble
and came out on top. That HUGE win not only earned him a spot in
the Top 10, but a future shot at the DREAMWAVE Title currently
held by our #3 Matt Cage. This is definitely a “money” matchup
in the future and we are looking forward to it all going down.
8.
were actually tied, it was the fan vote that separated the two
of them as Kojima did not get any fan support, despite a 5-0
weekend at New Japan. With so much talent on the poll, it
happens from time to time to even some of the best in the world.
One thing that kept him from an even higher ranking this week
was that all 5 wins were in some form of tag team matches. After
getting a #1 ranking earlier this year, this is his chance to
move up the IPR 100 if he can build on this.
9.
NJPW star didn’t get a lot of fan support this week BUT the
official voters gave him enough votes to get him into the Top 10
once again this week. Also like Kojima, he’s a former #1 in the
Indy Power Rankings and this ranking will help his stock in the
IPR 100 at the end of the year. With two major titles to his
credit (IWGP Junior Heavyweight and IWGP Junior Tag Team) he’s
going to have many more chances to get ranked this year.
10.
strength of her impressive title defense vs. Allysin Kay on
9/13. This is long overdue as LuFisto has been absolutely
tearing it up this year all across North America. While the fans
didn’t necessarily give her a lot of support this week due to
the litany of talent that was on the poll this week, again the
official voters gave her a lot of credit for her recent body of
work. We look forward to seeing her name more and more
throughout 2014.
People’s Champ. Dru Skillz (@DruSkillz)-He was a late addition
to the poll, but his fans made the most of it as they came from
WAY behind to pass James Anthony for the #1 spot in the poll and
The People’s Champ award this week with 126 votes this week
after defeating Carlito at Heroes and Legends on 9/13. Big week
for ˝ of the Soul Shooters.
