WRESTLING BREAKOUT START OF THE DECADE
This is for both Major stars and Indy stars.
So here's the Nominations in my opinion.
"American Dragon" Bryan Danielson: Mr. ROH. He main evented the first ROH show in 2002 against Lo Ki and Chris Daniels. He just departed ROH for the WWE. He is one of the best wrestlers of this decade. He was also a major part in the big ROH V.S CZW Rivalry that litterly split Philly in half in 2006.
Tommy Dreamer: When ECW folded in 2001. Alot of people said that Tommy Dreamer was the reason ECW lasted as long as it did. Tommy Dreamer won the ECW title at Cyberslam 2000 and held it for 9 minutes...9 years later when WWE relaunched ECW in it's own crappy vision. Dreamer would win the belt back in a 3 way match. Between the time ECW died and relaunched in such a crappy manner Dreamer worked as a WWE road agent and also one of the men behind ECW one night stand in 2005. Dreamer broke his body to hell for the business because he loves it with all his heart and soul.
Thumbtack Jack: He sorta looks like Ville Valo from HIM (which has the females on his side), He grew up in Germany idolizing Mick Foley. And followed in foley's bloody footsteps bringing hardcore back to life in Europe. In 2009 we saw Thumbtack Jack breakout in the US by being the only person in the biz to win both the IWA-MS King Of The Deathmatches and the CZW Tournament Of Death Trophies. He is currently CZW's Ultraviolent Underground Champion and it looks like that the sky's just the limit for Thumbtack Jack.
AJ Styles: AJ Styles started out as Air Styles in WCW before it folded in 2001. But since than he's Made ROH a living standpoint, became the first NWA Triple Crown Champion. and also became TNA's first Grand Slam Champion. AJ Styles is also one of the forerunners of the TNA X-Division which also helped bring Crusierweight Wrestling back to the mainstream.
John Zandig: Zandig was not known in the US untill late 2001 when his company at the time CZW held Cage Of Death 3 in December 2001 at the ECW Arena...8 months after ECW folded and 1 year to the date of ECW's last show in the ECW Arena. Before that he was just another American going hardcore in Japan. Since COD 3 in 2001 CZW has had 15 Nationaly Distributed DVD's, been featured on Backyard Wrestling 2, and recently been on both Discovery Channel's Timewarp and G4's G4 Underground Programs. He sold his company to DJ Hyde in august of 2009. Zandig is also the only non-ECW Alumi to be in the ECW Arena's Hardcore Hall Of Fame.
Sonjay Dutt: Never has a man since Sabu from the middle east give Wrestling fans a r eason to watch suicidal high flying stunts this decade. Sonjay helped ROH get to where they are, Gave TNA the bottomline for it's death-defying Ultimate-X, and gave CZW's Jr. Heavyweight Division an Identity. Sonjay Dutt is not only a superstar in the making. But like American Dragon and AJ Styles. he's the Future of this business.
John Cena: the guy you love to hate so much that you cheer for him. He gave the hip hop generation it's Stone Cold for this decade. John Cena is WWE's Future as it looks like now. Rather you love him or hate him. This multi time Champion ain't going anywhere. He came from the same training school as the next man in this list. And that same list has giving Wrestling Fans more new stars than Vinnie Mac's Genetic Jackhammer
Samoa Joe: Alot of people call him this decades Taz. Samoa Joe has inspired alot of Heavy-Set Wrestlers to go to the Crusierweight level and not let the weight put em down. Samoa Joe comes from the same area as The Samoans, The Headshrinkers, Yokozuna, Rocky Johnson, Peter Meivia, and The Rock. Samoa Joe like AJ Styles and Danielson helped put ROH on the Map and Samoa Joe's the first heavyweight wrestler in the business to win a Crusierweight championship when he won the TNA X-Division Championip in 2005.
vote wisely..i hope i don't get in trouble for this lol.
