1. "The Big L" Steve Lenton (Last Ranking: 4)
HOLY UBER UPSET, BATMAN! Two weeks removed from his tag title victory and Honor Cup qualifier loss over the Turks, Steve Lenton would go head-to-head against our current EXODUS Pro World champion Zero McHannon and would walk away victorious, stunning the San Diego audience. After the show, "The Big L" got some very high praise by fans all over Twitter, some even demanding EXODUS Pro officials to put him in the title match like they did with Magnus Gunner. Christian Kane made a general response to the fans and told one half of the tag team champions that if he were to win his next match, he would be more than likely entered into the EXODUS Pro World title match! Now, "The Big L" was chosen by Zero McHannon to be the poison to one of the two number one contenders for the World title, Chris Strike. Can Steve Lenton continue riding this wave? Or will Strike be victorious?
2. Magnus Gunner (Last Ranking: N/A)
Speaking of upsets, how about the self proclaimed "God of EXODUS" pulling off a victory against Chris Strike? In one of the most hard fought matches of the show, Magnus Gunner would punch his ticket to the EXODUS Pro World title match when he would defeat number one contender, Chris Strike. During the show, Magnus Gunner would go on a few rants (quite possibly one while fighting Chris Strike). So, what does Magnus Gunner have to do before he goes head-to-head-to-head with Zero McHannon and Chris Strike? Why, Chris Strike knows! Less than 12 hours after the show, Strike would choose Magnus Gunner to be Zero McHannon's opponent (poison) for the next show. Can Magnus Gunner make it 2 for 2?
3. Chris Strike (Last Ranking: N/A)
While Chris Strike wasn't able to walk out with a victory over Magnus Gunner, he still looked impressive in what could already possibly be a match of the year candidate. Of course, a loss is a loss, so Strike will be looking to rebound this next show when he faces the poison chosen by Zero McHannon for him, one half of the tag team champions, "The Big L" Steve Lenton. Can Strike get back on track or will "The Big L" send the train completely off its tracks?
4. Zero McHannon (Last Ranking: 2)
Well, it is another drop in the rankings for our World champion as he falls from 2nd to 4th following an upset loss against one half of the tag team champions in Steve Lenton. Zero McHannon still managed to put up a hell of a fight and after the match, a couple of hours later, he chose Steve Lenton to face Chris Strike, making Lenton Strike's poison. But, at the next EX-Pro show, Zero McHannon will have his hands full with the poison that was chosen for him named Magnus Gunner, who also happens to be the newest addition to that World title match at Battle Without Honor or Humanity. Like Strike, can Zero get back on track?
5. Zack Lifer (Last Ranking: 3)
Two weeks after capturing the International championship against Johnny Cannon, Zack Lifer dropped two spots after defending it against SHOOT Project's Jaime Alejandro and earning himself a crucial first win in his block while locking up his title for the remainder of the tournament. We don't understand how he dropped two spots either. Damn you, Rankings Computer! Anyway, it seems that now this is the International champion's block to lose as he faces the only other person with a win on his block, Anna Molly. If Lifer is to win, then that would truly put him in the driver's seat. Can one of the EXODUS's crazies pull off a victory over "Poison Disguised as Candy"? Or will he be like James Woods in Family Guy?
6. Kira T. Zeppeli (Last Ranking: N/A)
When we talk about upsets at this last show, this has to be one of the most talked about. Kira T. Zeppeli, former San Diego Bay champion and current despair feeder, pulled off a major upset when he was able to pin former World champion and a favorite to win this block, Fiona Rourke. Now, with that shocking victory behind him, Kira looks to make it 2 for 2 in Block C as he goes up against former longest reigning EXODUS Tag Team champion Sally Talfourd. Can Kira grab yet another victory and feed on Sally's "despair" while at it or will Sally Talfourd do to Kira what she has done to so many others and beat him?
7. Savannah Taylor (Last Ranking: 10)
So, here is another person who was involved in an upset that occurred in Block C. The "Las Vegas Siren" Savannah Taylor was able to pull off a MASSIVE (not #MassiveFace) upset over Sally Talfourd, another favorite to win this entire tournament. Savannah would have other plans as she managed to pick up a crucial first victory. Now, she takes on former World champion and someone who is clearly looking to get back on track in Fiona Rourke (who lost her first match in an upset as well). Can the "Las Vegas Siren" pull off yet another victory or will Fiona Rourke get her victory in Block C?
8. Jimmy Riley (Last Ranking: N/A)
The San Diego Bay title, a crucial first victory in Block B, and Blake Jones's confidence in winning this thing. That was all gained by the former International champion on this past show as Jimmy Riley would ruin Blake's second successful defense and his small winning streak as he would capture the San Diego Bay title (making him the fifth champion and making Blake the shortest reigning) and would pick up a victory that may help him when it comes down to it. Now, Jimmy Riley will make his first defense as International champion when he faces Cthulu Jones, who was seconds away from victory in his Block B match against Seymour Almasy. Can Jimmy Riley successfully defend the San Diego Bay title or will Cthulu be victorious and pick up a nice shiny belt?
9. Andreas Lasiewicz (Last Ranking: N/A)
Two weeks after earning himself an Honor Cup spot and losing the tag titles alongside Sally Talfourd to TROUBLE (Steve Lenton and Wulf Erikssen), Andreas Lasiewicz would main event against fellow Godfather of Wrestling, Chandler Scott. The match would be an epic one, but Andreas would walk out victorious and the solo leader of Block D. Now, he faces Abby Park in what could determine who the front runner of the Block could be. Can Andreas remain as numero uno or will Abby Park leapfrog quite possibly one of the scariest wrestlers on the EXODUS Pro roster?
10. Chandler Scott (Last Ranking: N/A)
We will all like to welcome Chandler Scott to the top 10 rankings! After a heavily contested main event, Block D bout against Andreas Lasiewicz, Chandler Scott has found himself in the top 10. Unfortunately, Scott was unable to defeat his fellow Godfather of wrestling, making him the unfortunate cellar dweller in Block D. But, he gets his chance to climb out of there when he faces another Godfather of Wrestling in Gabriel Gambino. Can the Harvard grad and pompous rich boy pick up his first Block D win or will Gabriel Gambino pick up his first?
