10 Wrestlers Who Have Never Been Better Than Right Now
It's now or never...
Wrestlers have many ups and downs throughout their careers.
Some can spend years at the top; dominating the main event scene, constantly reinventing themselves and winning numerous championships. Others may toil away on the undercard for the majority of their tenure; saddled with dodgy gimmicks, getting 50/50'd, and forever struggling to get over.
Nevertheless, every wrestler's career peaks at some point, a period where they seemingly can do no wrong. Certain performers may be a mere flash in the pan, whilst others are industry-changing, but it happens to them all.
Bray Wyatt was an absolute shoo-in for a spot on this list a couple of weeks ago, arguably even the #1 spot. Then Hell In A Cell happened and all the mystique and magic of The Fiend, that had been meticulously built for months, was destroyed in a match that didn't even have a satisfactory conclusion.
Luchasaurus is another name who deserves a mention. A hamstring injury which caused him to miss AEW Dynamite for this and several forthcoming weeks arguably only helps build anticipation for his TV debut. Upon his return, expect this dino to soar.
These are 10 wrestlers who have never been better than right now...
10. Chris Jericho
Chris Jericho is the undisputed master of reinventing himself, the Adam Clery of pro wrestling.
There are many phenomenal personas he's created for himself over the years; List Jericho, Y2J, The Best In The World At What He Does Jericho, but Chris Jericho as 'Le Champion' may well be his best version ever.
Despite his advancing years and being told for years in WWE that he'd never be the face of the company, he's done just that in All Elite Wrestling and looks perfect for the role.
The inaugural AEW world champion, after deservedly besting Hangman Page at All Out, he has since emerged as the leader & mouthpiece of The Inner Circle and looks set to dominate the main event scene for many months to come.
On last week's episode of AEW Dynamite he cut one of the best promos in years to introduce his new faction, and has been the talk of the wrestling world since coining his "A little bit of the bubbly!" catchphrase.
Jericho has had numerous highlights in his stellar career, but this one just has the perfect amount of je ne sais quoi.
