THIS EDITION IS SRS' OPINIONS. IT SHOULD NOT BE AGGREGATED

***

Who do you think is the best wrestler in WWE currently? And AEW? Just going off of athleticism and story-telling, not as much promo work.

Cody Rhodes I think is the best for what WWE does. When you think of the last few years, he had great defenses or matches with Logan Paul, AJ Styles, Kevin Owens, a Bloodline Rules match that was insane, and some great Rumble appearances. If we go strictly in-ring ability, I'd have to put IYO SKY right there too.

Will Ospreay in AEW. There's a ton of guys there that are amazing, but Ospreay has raised things for everyone.

Who's your picks to win MITB?

Roxanne Perez would be a great pick on the women's side. It works really well to establish out of the gate that someone is a big deal. I'd honestly really like Dominik Mysterio to win it for the men. It gives them a year-long story to play with for him. Then when he cashes in, literally all the women he's cost titles can screw him out of it.

Do you have any indie wrestlers you expect to be under a contract with a major promotion this year?

Maggie Lee, J Rod, Brittnie Brooks, Aleah James, Maya World, Hyan on the women's side.

Ben Bishop, Jordan Oliver, Mance Warner, Michael Oku, Alec Price, Man Like Dereiss on the mens' side.

Some of them maybe longer than a year, since they're still young.
