331. Dick Shikat

A former recognized two time World Heavyweight Champion in wrestling, Dick Shikat would join the post World War One circuit and would become a World Heavyweight Champion himself.  Shikat should be considered a dark horse candidate in terms of the WWE Hall of Fame and its legends wing.

337. Bert Assirati

The greatest wrestler from England in the first half of the 20th century, Bert Assirati was the largest box office draw in the United Kingdom and perhaps one of the best.  Assairati was a legitimate strongman and a major domino in the history of British wrestling but his failure to even crack the American mid-card works largely against him.  Still, the legendary strength, viciousness and tolerance for pain is the one of wrestling legend.

240. Everett Marshall

A former two time World Heavyweight Champion, Everett Marshall was a decent draw in the 1930’s and had classics with Lou Thesz.  As a former recognized world champion the new wing for the WWE Hall of Fame work in his favour, but where does he fall in that pecking order?

214. Manami Toyota

For a time in the 1990’s, there were wrestling fans and journalists alike decreeing Manami Toyota as the best professional wrestler in the world regardless of gender.  Toyota was a true star in Japan and is the recipient of nine five star matches from the Wrestling Observer Newsletter and the winner of any Japanese women’s title worth having in the 90’s.
