The Official Missouri Rankings: In Development

Posted by Ben Simon on May 2, 2014

By Ben Simon

MO Rankings

You love it or you hate it.  It’s still going.

The second period of MWR’s computerized rating system is in the book.  In March and April, nine events happened in the State.

Head over to the MO Rankings page for the latest performance publication.  Notice how the wrestlers are organized?  It’s alphabetically, not by rating.  This emphasizes that no one has participated in enough singles matches to warrant a stable rating.  What you see is simply where everyone stands.  However, here are some facts:

The highest rated is Jake Dirden.  The Dynamo Pro Champion is Missouri’s longest-reigning promotional champ.

The lowest rated is… well, let’s not bring that up.  He’s having a tough 2014.

Mark Sterling, at five, had the most matches this period.  “The Fittest Wrestler on Earth” has the endurance and will to compete regularly.

Mike Sydal, at 3-0, had the best record these last two months.  Two of those victories were in the same night as part of Modern Championship Wrestling’s Missouri title tournament.

For details on how the ratings work, read the Introduction

As the Glicko rating system continues to calculate the coming periods, we’ll see each active wrestler’s rating become accurate and stable.  Eventually, an official “Top 10” can be rendered.

I anticipate the next ratings (maybe official rankings as well) release in early July.

Two of the top young wrestlers battled it out at SICW when Daniel Eads battled “The Main Event” Mallaki Matthews.

MWR has covered pro wrestling for the past 6 years. During that time we have  featured the top title changes, the biggest matches and documenting the top moments around the Midwest.

Yet, it is our close relationship with the fans , young and old that we hope will be the legacy that we leave when it’s all said and done.

This past weekend we were in East Carondelet, Illinois for SICW when we tried to get Rhea and her young daughters picture taken with one of their favorite wrestlers, Daniel Eads.

What we got was a special moment that young Shelby Byrd will not forget.

Source: Wrestling Observer Newsletter

Bobby “The Brain” Heenan suffered a broken shoulder after falling while getting out of bed on April 24th in Las Vegas.

 

From SICW Promoter Herb Simmons on the health and outlook on Bobby Heenan in East Carondelet, Illinois

 

News on Bobby Heenan. Just talked with his wife Cindy, Bobby did have a fall and broke his arm. He is resting at home and is currently on bed rest. They haven’t put it in a cast as of now. He will be returning to the Doctor early next week for more x-rays . Cindy Heenan has asked that I wait to make a decision on his appearance until he returns from the Doctor next week. I assured her that I want his well being to be first of all over the event. She appreciated that and stated Bobby has been communicating with her all the great times he had in St. Louis over the years and is looking forward to seeing all the great wrestling fans. Therefore, at her request I will check with her next week before making a decision. If his appearance is postponed those that have purchased tickets can receive a refund. I ask that we all keep Bobby and Cindy in our thoughts and prayers, they have been through a lot over the past few years.
