Power 5

|1|­-Hayden Hardkore-
Well I thought about this, and between Jackass, and the man ranked under him, I really had a tough time deciding who should be ranked number one on the Power 5. In my mind I striped away all of their previous titles and accomplishments, I striped away all of the legends and myths surrounding their names, I striped away all of my encounters with them both, and I tried to place them by talent alone. Even then, the margins were so close, that I wound up giving this spot to the winner of the last match these two had against each other. Now I know it wasn't the cleanest win ever, but the showing that Hayden put on was absolutely awesome. So on behalf of everyone here at GHW congratulation.


|2|-Metal Dragon-
Metal Dragon ended up losing against Hayden Hardkore, but despite this he has had some really great wins in the last few weeks. First at Red, White, and Bruised, in a closely contested triple threat match and then against our very own Blain "The Empo" on TNT, like I stated earlier, I really had a hard time choosing between him and The Jackass for the number 1 spot, so don't be surprised if he comes out on top next week. I would personally like to thank MD for being extremely professional and for knowing how to work a story, on behalf of all of GHW I would like to say to him congratulations.

|3|-Dominik Santiago-
I think I speak for us all when I say, that if GHW's "New Age Champion" had fought a real match against Brian Commonwealth, he would not be ranked so high on the power 5. Since that is not the case though, and our "Champ" holds a victory over the superstar ranked at #1 on the list, he has earned himself the third highest spot here on the power five. To him I would like to say that I'm a firm believer in the principle that a win is a win, and on behalf of us all here on GHW I would like to say congratulations.

|4|-Demolition Thugs- -*
After winning the Heaven and Hell Aligned Titles, these two men defended them well in a match at RWAB. Despite this, the reason why they as a team have been placed on the power 5, is due greatly to there singles success. Gnrafflinger "The Great" holds a victory over Meathead, while Reeves was the victor of a match between him and Psycho Savage. I personally like it when superstars don't ride each other to greatness, but can go out and make a name for their own selves.

Note: You descending down the ranking is not due to any fault of your own, it is due to the success of other superstars.

|5|-DM Vasher- *
This guy is an absolute beast, I have watched him get in the ring these last two weeks and take out some really nice competition. I think that he has a lot of potential and I'm looking forward to what the future holds for this young man.

NIce work, glad someone has decided to take over the Power 5. I like the use of the key at the bottom, are the colored names for the champions?

[Kamikaze]

I am number 4 anyway I will make the Power 20 on Sundays, that's when the shows end.

[Dominik Santiago]

No not really, It was an Olympic Games reference.

1 - Gold
2 - Silver
3 - Bronze

P.S. Thanks for all of the constructive comments guys, and to Dom, I did not know you wanted to do the Power 5, if you want we can work together on some of them .

Good job man. Thanks for your words of encouragement.

As an elementary school teacher who spends my life decyphering kids books and writing, can I just say that I love hw easily and neatly set out everything is.
Every entry in the Power 5 has their own heading and paragraph, its easy to follow and well colour coded, easy on my eyes.

Good blurbs BTW, its always good to know what goes on in the mind of Teral B. Hilliard

Thanks Hayden, I do try to dot my T's and cross my I's. ;D lol.

Nice to see there's still a place for an old fart like me near the top. Number 1 has always eluded me though...
