SEE THE RANKINGS
The new Official Missouri Rankings list, good through June, has been calculated and published. Head over to the MO Rankings page for the latest publication. To qualify for the Top 10, a wrestler must have the highest ratings with consistent activity (RD ≤ 175). Rankings are published every two months.

MOVEMENTS & EXPLANATIONS
The hottest new training facility in Saint Louis shows they may be the toughest, as Team Ambition’s #2Davey Richards and #4Frodo The Ghost debut in the list alongside #6Camaro Jackson and #7Moses. It is unclear whether CMike Outlaw has explicitly left the camp since turning on Richards at The Pageant on April 24.
A reminder about the defense adjustment…
From 2015 until last fall, the Missouri title had been on the line in every singles bout that the champion wrestled in the State. After analysis of title changes from 2015-19 (specifically upsets), Brian Kelley and Ben Simon have determined to give the MWR champ a break and increase the value of the rankings system.
Going forward, the title will always be on the line when the Missouri champion wrestles a current Top 10 contender. The contender has earned it; no ifs, ands, or buts.
For all other singles matches, it is at the champion’s discretion whether the crown is on the line. While the opponent has not necessarily earned the right to wrestle for and win the MWR belt, our champion may use it to even stakes in challenges, double title matches, etc.
