Duke Ingraham applied a statistical tool to the writer's individual lists to come up with power rankings of the top 25 wrestlers in Georgia. Deserving wrestlers end up being left off no matter what the size of the list. The results are below along with Dusty Finnish's take on the rankings.
The Top 10

Halen started with the Iron Man match at SFCW and with a Great War games match at KLT. I really believe Halen owned the summer. His status at the top was solidified at the biggest Georgia wrestling event of the year he defeated Geter to win the coveted Anarchy Heavyweight Championship. The current top wrestler in the state and at the moment the living litmus test.

He has been on top of both SH and SFCW for most of the summer and only recently lost the championship of the latter. The top rated big man this quarter and deservedly so. His showdown with Ali will be the first major test for the final quarter of the year. There’s a realistic chance that he finishes the year in the number one spot.

The current SFCW champion who has tangled with more men in the top 25 than anyone else on the list. If there’s a ring you can almost guarantee that Hunter James will be there. This quarter has seen him compete in the main events of SFCW, PCW, GCW, and WrestleMerica. Not only is he the youngest member of this list but in the argument of most active.
His odyssey to establish himself as the true IWTV champion has been one of the best stories this year. The year as whole has been up and down but the Summer was a refreshing upswing for the big man. The first of 3 men that went from honorable mentions to top ten. A healthy Krule is a guaranteed main event talent.
The Hierarchy's first representative on this list. Chip Day is the workhorse champion of Southern Honor and I don’t think much more needs to be said. From relative newcomers like Shoot Taylor to grizzled veterans like Kyle Matthews this stylistic stallion keeps working.

It’s not the size of the dog in the fight but the size of the fight in the dog. When it comes to Najasism it’s always time to fight. In my estimation one of the easily identifiable wrestlers in the state. The fearless face painted warrior has slowed down on his capacity to steal shows.

Former number 1 place holder is still going strong. He has the potential to reclaim his throne with multiple huge showdowns set for the final act of the year. The captain is on top of VPW and CCW can he add more.

The long time tag team specialist has been a singles standout recently and added the PCW and GIPW top titles to his collection. The Frat Daddy has upped his game 100% and is currently on one of the best runs of his young career and doesn’t look to stop any time soon.

The odd man out in this top ten. He’s the only man with no championships to his name. However he has steadily climbed the list behind strong work at CCW, PCW, and Wrestlemerica. Top heel yes, top face sure, top champion we will see.
The Assassin out of Action and current Action heavyweight champion. His battle on behalf of IWTV feels as if it’s reintroduced him to the Georgia scene. Possibly the most gifted technicancian in the state and he could easily wrap the Peach State into a pretzel if he wished.
The Next In
Skrilla The Great the man that showed up to the GWH Gala with all the gold, is still here and still doing great.
Joe Black has racked up 3 different sets of tag gold. What differentiates him from his partner are his multiple singles feuds populating around the state including Skrilla and Zach Mosley.
The Kenway has slowly but surely earned his respect. His age and ability means he can easily make a play for a top ten spot sooner rather than later.
Jacob Ashworth a staple of Georgia wrestling for years. Nowadays he doesn’t have as much gold but he still has all of the good ole Georgia grit and grappling ability.
Chris Kamikaze Kamikaze walked away from KLT’s biggest event of the year with the top prize. His position as a dangerous loomer at Pro South means he could finish the year with two top titles.
Best Of The Rest
Brandon Whatley, current Pro South Champion,
Austin Towers is the current SVW Champion and I’m pretty sure he’s the longest current reigning champion in Georgia.
Murder 1 he is currently riding a wave that can only be considered a career renaissance with his success in Georgia’s tag team division.
Xavier Reyes the reigning Wrestlemerica Champion and one of the most underrated power players in the state.
Zach Mosley earlier this year he was labeled the best wrestler in Georgia. His return to full time action looks to put him back in that conversation after gaining steam at KLT, SH, and CEW.
David Ali the savior has returned. Ali was the heart of Southern Honor in its early years. Returning from the central states he’s picking up where he left off.
The Rest
Suge D His character work at ACTION and his ungodly brutal match with Jaden Newman at SCI stood out
Curtis Coleman His exploits in Puerto Rico make him unique on the Georgia scene
Trever Aeon Top of the card in multiple promotions
Chip Skyler CEW built their shows around him all summer long
