This
is the OVW Top 20 for the week of July 1-7, 2018 exclusively
on
OVWmania. Each category features the champion followed by the top
contenders.
SIDE NOTE: When we put the Top 20 on hiatus in February of 2014, we didn't think it would take this long for it to return! We are still working on logistics, but I think this will once again be weekly and will be released on Saturday afternoons following OVW TV. Please leave a comment on your thoughts!
TOP 10 SINGLES
#1) MICHAEL HAYES
OVW HEAVYWEIGHT CHAMPION
RECENTLY: Considering himself the "G.O.A.T", he will be put to the test again at the July 7th SNS when he faces his biggest "demon", Amon, in a casket match!
#
2)
AMON
RECENTLY: OVW's resident demon still has not been pinned or submitted. Can he bury the champ, Michael Hayes, at SNS: No Limits and ascend to the top of the OVW food chain?
#
3)
"WRESTLING'S ROCKSTAR" RYAN HOWE
RECENTLY: Howe thinks he rightfully deserves the #1 contendership over Justin Smooth. He might just have the leg up after a tag team win this past Wednesday night.
#
4)
"THE TRINIDAD TITAN" JUSTIN SMOOTH
RECENTLY: Neither Smooth, nor Ryan Howe were standing after their last fight, but Smooth plans to be the last man standing at the July 7th SNS to become the new #1 contender!
#5) "THE MAN" DAPPER DAN
OVW ANARCHY CHAMPION
RECENTLY: Dapper Dan is OVW's man when it comes to "hardcore". He wants to make sure the Anarchy Title stays around his waist as he looks to "shoot" Tony Gunn out of his way at SNS: No Limits.
#
6)
"THE BOY WONDER" SAM THOMPSON
OVW TELEVISION CHAMPION
RECENTLY: After finally besting Logan James to become champion, Sam has been on a successful streak of defending it. At the July 7th SNS, he looks to get the Elite out of his hair...literally!
#
7)
"THE REAL DEAL" RANDALL FLOYD
RECENTLY: Floyd's momentum took a hit after Ryan Howe, Justin Smooth, & Randy Royal all returned looking to get in the title picture. He looks to knock 1 of those 3 out of his way at SNS: No Limits, facing Royal in a street fight.
#8) "DOUBLE R SUPERSTAR" RANDY ROYAL
RECENTLY: Randy feels he was "royally" screwed over by Randall Floyd, trying to get another shot at the OVW Heavyweight Title. He will look to leap up in the rankings by beating Floyd at SNS: No Limits in a street fight.
#
9)
"SHOTGUN" TONY GUNN
RECENTLY: Gunn is furious that he has to fight in an evening gown powerbomb match against Dapper Dan at SNS: No Limits, but as Gilbert Corsey said...if Gunn wins, he can end the anarchy and prove that he is "the best wrestler here".
#
10)
BILLY O
RECENTLY: Billy has looked impressive as of late. Now that he's joined up with DL3, will he be elevated to "star" status?
MISSING THIS WEEK'S CUT:
Cardinal
-"The Empire State Goliath" has been tearing through competition and may soon see himself tearing up the Top 20.
TOP 5 TAG TEAMS
#1) "THE BRO GODZ": COLTON CAGE & DUSTIN JACKSON
OVW SOUTHERN TAG TEAM CHAMPIONS
RECENTLY: The champs have had some struggles recently with a surprise opponent in the War Kings, then a loss in 6-man tag action this past week. Will they do "bro"-kay against DL3 & Shiloh Jonze in a Texas "Bro"nado match at the July 7th SNS?
#2)"THE WAR KINGS": CRIMSON & JAX DANE
RECENTLY: They came, they saw, they destroyed! The War Kings left a giant mark on OVW's tag division that won't be forgotten as we await their return from India.
#
3)
DL3 & SHILOH JONZE
RECENTLY: DL3's latest script has him & Shiloh as the stars of the tag division as they look to oust the Bro Godz from the top spot...and scene!
#4) "THE VOID": CHACE DESTINY, HOUDINI, & NIGEL
RECENTLY: Their main goal is to help Amon send Michael Hayes to the darkness, but when put together inside the squared circle, their competition starts to pale in comparison in the tag division.
#5) "THE ELITE": ADAM REVOLVER & TED McNALER
RECENTLY: The Elite are back in action at SNS: No Limits, and they look to ruffle some feathers by beating the team of Sam Thompson & Eddie Knight, then shaving Sam's head!
TOP 5 FEMME FATALES
#1) CALI
OVW WOMEN'S CHAMPION
RECENTLY: Cali's arm isn't 100%, but she plans to give it all she's got in a submission match against Jaylee at SNS: No Limits!
#
2)
JAYLEE
RECENTLY: Jaylee hopes to have her arm raised and Cali's arm hanging following their submission match at the July 7th SNS.
#3) JORDAN BLADE
RECENTLY: Jordan had an impressive debut and victory over the current #1 contender Jaylee.
#4) MEG
RECENTLY: Meg has started making her presence known in the Femme Fatale division.
#5) JESSIE BELLE
RECENTLY: Jessie has not seen much in-ring action, but has the genes to take control of it any time she chooses.
