MJF, Sheamus, Matt Cardona, More React To 2022 PWI 500 Rankings
The annual Pro Wrestling Illustrated dropped on Wednesday with Roman Reigns topping the list.
The evaluation period for this year’s PWI 500 is July 1, 2021 – June 30, 2022. The criteria for ranking includes win-loss record, technical ability, influence on the sport, success against the highest grade of competition, success against the most diverse competition, and activity.
After the rankings dropped, wrestlers reacted to their respective rankings and the overall rankings.
I just knew about #PWI500 results. Last year I was ranked No.136 and this year I was able to improve my ranking to No.59. Thank you all for your support. I will strive to be in the top 20 next year.

Ok @roderickstrong, there’s only one way to settle this. I want my spot back. I need argument leverage when I argue with the office. https://t.co/HhGeWMV9jA
