1. Sally Talfourd: (Previous Ranking: 8)
- The Last Magician storms into the top spot on this edition of the EXPRO Rankings and for good reason. She answered all doubts about whether she was still on form as a singles competitor, by doing something no one in the company had yet to accomplish until EXPRO on FX #18 - beating Lexy Chapel. Sal-Tal and the International Champion competed in a classic that well went over 20 minutes, but in the end Talfourd was able to steal the win (literally), shocking everyone in Fukuoka, and the entire EXODUS community. With that big victory under her belt, she'll meet another huge challenge in Kerry Windsor in two weeks.
2. Christum Furor (Previous Ranking: 2)
- The World Champion has seen better days. He may not remember those days though, thanks in part to what happened to him in Fukuoka. He started the night in his usual fashion - intimidating non-wrestling personalities with his latest victim being Maggie Rourke. Then he got all he could handle in an extremely competitive contest against Christian Kane that nearly went the distance - that was until Zack Lifer came out and knocked him around for the disqualification. That was just the beginning of a bad night for the champion. He'd learn that he'd be teaming with his hated rival, Fiona Collins in the Main Event of our Go Home Show in two weeks.
3. Fiona Collins (Previous Ranking: 4)
- The number one contender to the EXODUS World Championship was her heroic, inspiring self this past Monday. In a moment of weakness, she reminded Jonathan Collins his importance to the Sekigun . She'd then go on to get another demon off her back later in the show. Due to their history in another company during her early career, Fiona Collins had wanted a piece of Justin Brooks for a long time, and his attack on her in the Cibernetico only added more fuel to the fire. She'd go on to put that fire out with a good win against The Big Bad Brooks in a close contest that many believe could've gone to either competitor. Though due to her participation in the post show brawl between HATE and TROUBLE, Fiona will be teaming with the man she hates more than anyone, Christum Furor to take on The Ninth Gate for the Tag Team Titles as she vyes for the EXODUS Grand Slam.
4. WEAPON (Previous Ranking: 1)
- The EXODUS Failsafe Program has been a wrecking ball of destruction for the enemies of the Sekigun since his emergence at Absent Are the Saints. After picking up the victory in the Trios Main Event over Gods & Monsters the show before, he took down another reprehensible character in Kameron Chase. In a back and forth match, WEAPON was able to vanquish the Tag Team Champion, proving yet again that he may be EXODUS' best hope for ridding the company of the villains that are currently wreaking havoc.
5. Steve Lenton (Previous Ranking: 6)
- Many people consider The Big L to be the heart and soul of EXODUS Pro, and those who do had another legitimate reason to think so after what he accomplished on Monday. The Suntan Superman knocked off his biggest personal hurdle to date -- he defeated Daisuke Iwakuma in the middle of the ring. The Perfect Evil tried to use the numbers game once again to screw Steve out of a victory, but with Wulf Erikssen watching his back, the former Tag Team Champ put down Iwakuma, then fought off HATE to close the show. Kudos to you, Big L.
6. Kerry Windsor (Previous Ranking: 7)
- For those of you who don't know, Kerry Windsor is the real deal. The self made superstar is proving to be one of EXODUS Pro's best Free Agent acquisitions in company history. Two weeks ago he outsmarted the "Smartest Man In Professional Wrestling", Chuck Matthews in a great match. This past Monday he shined brighter than "The Ultimate Entertainer", Kliff Ulysses in another fantastic match. Windsor is quickly racking up the wins and is letting the EXODUS Nation know that he is going to be a power player in the company. However, in two weeks he'll be meeting another top star in Sally Talfourd in what is already becoming a highly anticipated contest that may steal the show.
7. Savannah Taylor (Previous Ranking: N/A)
- The Las Vegas Siren had a lot of skeptics doubting her going into Monday's title match against Angela Jameson. Many people think she did not earn the San Diego Bay Championship, and even more were already planning for a title change in Fukuoka. Well, Savannah proved them all wrong, as she successfully retained against the willy veteran, picking up a huge win for herself, and impressing EXODUS Headmaster Cleon Gray in the process.
8. Chuck Matthews (Previous Ranking: N/A)
- "The Smartest Man in Professional Wrestling" did what he does best Monday, leave us guessing as to what's going on in his head. Chuck seems to be starting an alliance with The New Iron Saint, Zack Lifer - the very man he picked up a victory over to get himself back to his winning ways. After defeating the only man he respected in EXODUS, we will be watching closely as to what Mr. Matthews may or may not have up his sleeve as we continue our tour of Japan.
9. Lexy Chapel (Previous Ranking: 3)
- The International Champion may now have a legitimate horse in this war between the EXODUS Sekigun and Gods & Monsters. Between threats on the well being of her husband Nate Chapel, and people calling her out on her relationship with The Collins family, Lexy Chapel would suffer her first professional defeat at the hands of Sally Talfourd by extremely controversial means. There's no doubt in anyone's mind that Lexy will come back stronger from this setback, however, many are wondering whether she'll be seeking revenge against The Last Magician. All we know for sure is that she'll be teaming once again with WEAPON to take on Savannah Taylor and Brett Sands on July 7th when EXODUS comes to the Kobe Sambo Hall, in Kobe, Japan.
10. The Ninth Gate (Previous Ranking: N/A)
- Daisuke Iwakuma and Kameron Chase will be trying to forget EXODUS on FX #18 - they don't have one good memory to hang their hats on. With Chase taking the loss against WEAPON earlier in the show, and "The Perfect Evil" losing to Steve Lenton in the Main Event, the EXODUS Tag Team Champions found out that as punishment for their "bad behavior" in the post-match brawl, they'll be defending their titles in their V1 defense of their second tag reign against the World Champion Christum Furor, and "The Stardust Seraph" Fiona Collins.
