Nobody on this list has done more to further the idea of excellence in Scottish wrestling than Drew Galloway. A clear talent during his formative years in the industry, he was snapped up by WWE in 2006. From there, everything looked rosy for Galloway. As Drew McIntyre, he was even positioned on television as Vince McMahon's 'Chosen One'.

Despite winning the WWE Intercontinental and Tag-Team Titles during his tenure, Drew was released in 2014. Many were surprised to learn this, including legends like Bret Hart. Galloway had always made the best of everything WWE handed him, but he was determined to make a splash even when seeing his contract terminated.

Coming back to the company with which he first made his name, ICW, Galloway won the promotion's top title and defended it across the globe. Not only did that turn the belt into a recognised World Title, it also caused more eyes than ever before to look at Scottish wrestling.

Whether in WWE, TNA, ICW, Evolve, or anywhere else he has worked, Galloway is chiefly responsible for causing a Scottish revolution in wrestling. For that, he can be proud.
