20 Absolute Best Wrestlers In The World Right Now
16. Rey Fenix
High-flying wrestling is so flush with vanilla flippers that it's extremely difficult to stand out in 2020. While much of what these aerial artists do requires supreme athleticism and coordination, it's everywhere these days, from the smallest indie venues to WWE's cavernous basketball arenas. Everyone has a suicide dive in their locker, every high spot has been giffed a thousand times, and moves that were once cutting edge and spectacular have become the norm, despite the level of skill required to execute them.
That Rey Fenix transcends all this is part of why he's so special. In a crowded field, this Lucha Brother is one of only a few capable of doing things the audience has legitimately never seen before - and he does so almost every time of asking. The man's a marvel whose agility is matched only by his creativity, as shown in acclaimed 2019 bouts with Kenny Omega, Nick Jackson, and alongside Pentagon in their numerous tag team thrillers, all of which showcased Fenix at his adrenaline-pumping best.
