NICHOLS: Wrestling’s All Time Top Lists

Ben Nicholsby Ben Nichols
Professional wrestling exists at the intersection of sport and storytelling, producing moments that resonate across generations. Ben Nichols’ comprehensive all-time ranking project aims to evaluate professional wrestling by cataloging matches, wrestlers, events, championships, tag teams, and stables, offering a unique framework for understanding the industry’s impact. 
Spanning decades, continents, and promotions, the project provides a layered examination of wrestling’s evolution from regional territory systems to today’s global landscape. By combining match quality, historical significance, and fan reception, the rankings aim to serve as a definitive measure of professional wrestling’s legacy. 
This focus on matches sets the stage for exploring wrestling’s evolution, with the rivalry between Kazuchika Okada and Kenny Omega leading the rankings. Their two-out-of-three falls match at Dominion 2018 tops the list, showcasing elite performance and storytelling that redefined main event wrestling. 
Building on this match-centered approach, the rankings emphasize Japanese wrestling, particularly New Japan Pro Wrestling, All Japan Pro Wrestling, and Pro Wrestling NOAH. The repeated inclusion of matches involving Kenta Kobashi and Mitsuharu Misawa highlights the enduring influence of 1990s All Japan wrestling, a golden era for in-ring excellence.
Their clashes including the acclaimed 2003 encounter in NOAH and multiple All Japan classics demonstrate lasting physical intensity and storytelling influence. 
In the current era, another defining presence is Will Ospreay, whose matches against Kenny Omega and Bryan Danielson illustrate wrestling’s evolution into a faster, more globally influenced style. Danielson vs. Ospreay in 2024 is noted for its technical sophistication and for blending American and Japanese philosophies. 
The rankings then turn to milestones outside Japan, highlighting North American wrestling. In World Wrestling Entertainment, Bret Hart vs. Steve Austin at WrestleMania 13 remains a pivotal match, credited with redefining character storytelling. Similarly, Shawn Michaels vs. The Undertaker at WrestleMania 25 stands out for its dramatic pacing and execution. 
Adding to wrestling’s historical diversity, TNA’s Unbreakable 2005 triple threat match between AJ Styles, Christopher Daniels, and Samoa Joe highlights alternative promotions. This match, often cited as a turning point in independent wrestling’s visibility, proved that world-class performances can occur outside mainstream platforms. To further illustrate the sport’s complexity, breaking down rankings by promotion reveals distinct identities and contributions.
WWE emphasizes storytelling and spectacle; AEW highlights modern athleticism and narrative depth. In promotion-based rankings, AEW features prominently, with multiple entries starring Bryan Danielson, Kenny Omega, and Will Ospreay. Matches such as Omega vs. Ospreay in 2023 and Danielson vs. Swerve Strickland in 2024 showcase AEW’s dedication to high-caliber performances. New Japan Pro Wrestling dominates the rankings. Events like Wrestle Kingdom and G1 Climax consistently deliver matches with technical skill and emotional depth. Classics such as Hiroshi Tanahashi vs. Kazuchika Okada and Shingo Takagi vs. Will Ospreay cement the promotion’s excellence. 
Beyond matches, the rankings honor events for overall quality. AEW Dynamite’s Brodie Lee tribute (2020) is among the best for both in-ring action and emotional impact. New Japan’s Wrestle Kingdom series receives multiple nods for its strong cards and global impact. WrestleMania X-Seven is included as WWE’s top pay-per-view, setting benchmarks for presentation and mainstream appeal. Women’s wrestling gains recognition, with shows like Stardom’s All-Star Grand Queendom ranked highly.
These events highlight increased visibility and global appreciation for women’s wrestling. The wrestler rankings mix modern stars and historical icons. Kenny Omega and Will Ospreay top the list, representing athleticism and global reach.  Legends Kenta Kobashi and Mitsuharu Misawa continue to influence wrestling styles. Kazuchika Okada and Hiroshi Tanahashi, recognized for revitalizing New Japan Pro Wrestling, also rank among the top.  
Lou Thesz, Shawn Michaels, and Steve Austin represent earlier eras of wrestling, setting standards and remaining benchmarks in the industry. Women’s wrestling is strongly featured, with Mayu Iwatani, Aja Kong, and IYO SKY noted. Their impact underscores the importance of women in wrestling’s future. Championships anchor wrestling storytelling.
The WWWA World Championship and IWGP Heavyweight Championship top the list, marking achievements in their respective promotions. Notable titles include All Japan’s Triple Crown and AEW’s World Championship. These signify excellence in their promotions and reflect wrestling’s global diversity. 
Tag team wrestling is well covered. Holy Demon Army, led by Akira Taue and Toshiaki Kawada, stands out for its chemistry and consistency. Notable teams include The Golden Lovers, FTR, and Motor City Machine Guns, each showcasing distinct eras and styles. Among factions, the Four Horsemen are at the top, serving as the model for modern stables. Los Ingobernables de Japon, The Shield, and Evolution also stand out for their narrative impact. 
While much of the project celebrates excellence, it also confronts the industry’s shortcomings. Including poorly received matches, performers, and events provides a balanced perspective, acknowledging that wrestling’s history is not without its missteps.  Matches like Act Yasukawa vs. Yoshiko and Jeff Hardy vs. Sting are cited as disappointments. Heroes of Wrestling 1999 and WWE Super ShowDown 2020 are listed among poor shows, criticized for bad execution.  The rankings highlight individuals who failed to meet professional standards, reinforcing the idea that wrestling’s success relies on skill, preparation, and storytelling. 
Nichols’ all-time wrestling list serves as a lens for both celebration and critique, using rankings to offer insight into the industry’s best and worst aspects. This approach provides a holistic perspective on professional wrestling’s ongoing transformation. From Japanese mastery to WWE spectacle and AEW innovation, the rankings capture wrestling’s variety.
They ensure recognition for those who shaped the sport. As wrestling evolves, Nichols’ rankings invite reflection on the sport’s past and prompt consideration of its future. Legendary matches, iconic performers, and unforgettable events illustrate wrestling’s unique blend of sport and storytelling, captivating audiences worldwide.
