3. Zack Sabre Jr.
From one former Battle of Los Angeles winner to the current champion, from one young grappling technician to another, from a Canadian to one of our own. The last two years have seen Zack Sabre Jr. come into the success many earmarked him for from an early age as he has taken the States by storm. The 2015 Battle of Los Angeles was the shining moment for this young man, a tournament victory that included a dream match of his own against Pentagon Jr (the type of match that got 'This is Awesome' chants before the bell) and a manic three-way final with Chris Hero and Mike Bailey. In truth, the only thing that should stop Rey Mysterio vs. Zack Sabre Jr. happening in 2016 is Sabre's inevitable move to NXT.

Born in the middle of Wales in the middle of the 1980's, John can't quite remember when he started watching wrestling but he has a terrible feeling that Dino Bravo was involved. Now living in Prague, John spends most of his time trying to work out how Tomohiro Ishii still stands upright. His favourite wrestler of all time is Dean Malenko, but really it is Repo Man. He is the author of 'An Illustrated History of Slavic Misery', the best book about the Slavic people that you haven't yet read. You can get that and others from www.poshlostbooks.com.
