As this one came just after the 1st round nominations last year... heres a match you should consider...

 

[cobystag]

Amazing match and I was going to look into rewatching it before the rematch so thank you for putting it up!

 

That was one of my favourite matches of 2011 featuring a UK wrestler and it was up there with Mastiff vs Sugiura and Tozawa vs Scurll.

Who's for the chop this year... and who will replace them?

Thought it would be interesting to compare this to the UKFF Scottish Top 20 I did Last December/This January.

This is the top 8 Scottish guys based on the 2011 UKFF UK50

1-Mikey Whiplash (13th)

2-Lionheart (17th)

4-Kid Fite (27th)

5-BT Gunn (29th)

6- Liam Thomson (32nd)

7-Andy Wild (35th)

8-Darkside James Scott (40th)

 

And this is the top 25 from the vote I did

 

1-BT Gunn

2-Liam Thomson

3-James Scott

4-Lionheart

5-Joe Coffey

6-Damian O'Connor

7-Kid Fite

8-Andy Anderson

9-Noam Dar

10-Nikki Storm

11-Wolfgang

12-Andy Wild

13-Dickie Divers

14-Jack Jester

15-Scott Renwick

18- Stevie Xavier

19-Davey Blaze

20-Chris Renfrew

21-Falcon

22-Chris Rampage

TWO DAYS LEFT in Stage One. If you haven't got your nominations in yet, you're running out of time.

 

Another UKFF UK50 fact: the original project in 2005 featured the contributions of only 61 UKFF members. Last year, the 2011 version saw 140 UKFFers take part...

I have a request? Out of the current WWE and TNA wrestlers, who is the top appearance makers if you take in their overall positions in the UKFF50? I imagine Doug would be number 1, Pac number 2 maybe? Did Magnus ever appear on the list? What about Sheamus?

I have a request? Out of the current WWE and TNA wrestlers, who is the top appearance makers if you take in their overall positions in the UKFF50? I imagine Doug would be number 1, Pac number 2 maybe? Did Magnus ever appear on the list? What about Sheamus?

I posted a combined 7-year cumulative list at the end of last year's project. As for current WWE and TNA stars, that means:

 

 

1 Doug Williams

2 Mark Haskins

3 Pac

4 Drew Galloway (Drew McIntyre)

5 Seamus O'Shaunessy (Sheamus)

 

Whether you want to include Haskins as a TNA star is up for debate - he's a contracted member of the roster, but is rarely used in the promotion and instead remains part of the UK scene.

 

The overall standings also include Martin Stone (4), Joel Redman (27) and Valkabious (79) who, correct me if I'm wrong, are on their way to developmental, and Hade Vansen (49) who spent some time out there but only appeared on TV once in a vignette.

[IANdrewDiceClay]

They just resigned Doug according to F4W Weekly. They are bringing him back onto TV shortly, which is LONG overdue. What with the death of the tag teams, wouldn't be surprised of a Haskins and Williams team being formed. They'd said on their website that Haskins was in the X tournament but he got dropped from it. No idea why.

[Big Benny HG]

Around 28 hours left to get your nominations in. That's right, a little over ONE DAY LEFT to take part in Stage One if you haven't so far.

 

Want another UKFF UK50 fact?

 

Only 7 wrestlers have managed to get into the UKFF UK50 in every single year:

 

El Ligero

Dave Mastiff

Stixx

Spud

RJ Singh

Jonny Storm

Terry Frazier

 

Will that run come to an end for any of them this year?

 

 

Remember, anything received after 23:59 tomorrow night will not be counted.

[Big Benny HG]

Thanks to all of you that took part so far; the nomination stage is now CLOSED. I'll be back in a couple of days to reveal who's in the 50 and what happens next. Ta!
