10 Best Wrestlers Of 2025

10. Kyle Fletcher

A one-man match-of-the-night factory on shows designed to have about 10 over a five hour period, Kyle Fletcher has spent 2025 continuing to surpass even the wildest expectations he might have set for audiences when he burst out as a singles threat in 2024.

It's a growth that requires constant checking to see if it can really have happened that quickly. But it really did. It was an October 2024 edition of Dynamite where, during an awkward promo, Fletcher got rid of the blonde mop haircut that served as the latest (but not last) comparison to Will Ospreay ahead of a feud with the 'Aerial Assassin' that culminated in a steel cage classic at Revolution. Like Ospreay, he became undeniable, and as early as March, he was one of the select few in the challenger brand that appeared to be working for the job he wanted rather than simply content with the one he had.

This was far from the only show he stole, too. Becoming a fixture on the weekly shows and pay-per-views - itself a credit to the work and his ability to stand out from the sprawling Don Callis family - he was strong in contests against the likes of Hiromu Takahashi, Dustin Rhodes, Daniel Garcia, Sammy Guevara, Mark Briscoe (twice) and especially Hangman Adam Page in both the Owen Hart tournament semi final and an AEW World Heavyweight Vs TNT Champion Vs Champion main event designed to show just how close he was to ascending to the next level.

On endless evidence, it'd be foolish to bet against him.
