7. Jimmy Havoc

A cult favourite on the UK independents, Jimmy Havoc has just returned to the ring after a lengthy injury absence. He has wasted absolutely no time in jumping back into the fire, however, and recently embarked on a vile, bitter feud with fellow UK favourite Marty Scurll over in PROGRESS.

Havoc is a 12-year veteran, and the country’s most notable anti-hero. He made his name through brutal, violent deathmatch-style clashes, but aside from that, Havoc is an underrated all-rounder in the ring. He’s no World of Sport-style wizard, but Havoc’s an incredibly smart wrestler who knows how to pace a match, and he always leaves his matches looking like a star.

Havoc’s real strengths lie in his charisma and character work. He’s working as a face in PROGRESS at the moment, but at his darkest, Havoc is the best heel in the country. Few British workers know how to manipulate a crowd’s hatred quite like Havoc, and his grim, brooding personality shines through in everything he does.

Havoc would be a real wildcard tournament pick. He’s a truly unique worker, and after moonlighting for TNA earlier this year, it’s time he returned to one of wrestling’s major stages.
