8 Indie Wrestlers Who Could Be The Next Daniel Bryan
6. Timothy Thatcher
From two high octane performers to one with his feet most firmly planted on the floor. Timothy Thatcher is one of the leading proponents of the realistic grappling-based movement that seems to be picking up momentum across the independent scene. His technical abilities are more than impressive, and all of his matches are guaranteed to be at the higher end of the scientific scale. Thatcher also possesses a intangible charisma that sets him apart from his compadres in the technical school. Much like Bryan his facial expressions are on point, constantly making sure that crowd are involved and not bored to tears by wristlocks and armbars. It is this that will allow Thatcher to succeed if he makes the jump to WWE. Similar to Bryan, Thatcher doesn't exactly look like a breakout sensation. Even so, it is easy to imagine the WWE Universe getting behind him and proclaiming his their new unlikely hero.
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.
