Doesn't have the same resume as his British Strong Style stable mates do, but he hasn't been totally lacking of good matches this year. While teaming with Tyler Bate he had 2 good matches against CCK, War Machine, and Ringkampf, and had good 6 man tags against Ringkamf and the team of Jimmy Havoc, Mark Haskins, and Morgan Webster. His singles stuff has been pretty lacking this year so he won't make it too high on my list, especially now that BSS don't hold the tag team titles and may not be in tag team scene anymore, but I think he'll grab a spot late in the list.

His skills don't really translate to this type of list. Obviously he holds his own in tags/trios, and his personality is integral to the BSS act, but that isn't a huge boon. His best singles match is probably the Riddle one at SSS16.

I think Trent's singles work is being underrated a bit here because he's not as good as Bate or Dunne. He's got a great match with Riddle from Progress Orlando, a great match with Dunne from the WWE UK special and great matches with Travis Banks from Chap. 48 and Fight Club Pro. He's also got some fun multi man main events for FCP. I don't really like ICW, but his matches would usually be the highlight of any show I've checked out like Vs Wolfgang from Square Go.
Maybe I'll be the high vote on him.

Great worker. Smart worker. Wouldn't mind if I never had to see him work ever again.

I've seen very little evidence to support the thesis that he's good. Probably had the worst Riddle match I've seen this year at Mania (not that it was terrible, but boy it wasn't much). Has presence and is a good character but if he was from any scene other than the UK he'd be viewed as just a guy and probably routinely maligned.

I know it doesn't matter for this poll but he is a hell of a promo.

Agree. But for shit stirring promos from that universe I'd rate him beyond Gibson, and I prefer Gibson by many miles in the ring

I mean he's the least talented of the three British Strong Style folks but he's done more than enough to end up in my Top 100.
Would also point out that like Pete Dunne and Tyler Bate, his best work that I saw this year happened in WWE.
Wolfgang vs Trent in the UK Classic fucking ruled. Tag match from Brooklyn vs Dunne and Wolfgang fucking ruled. I saw a couple of bangers from Progress. Tag match vs Pete Dunne and Mark Andrews also fucking ruled.
There's still a couple of WWE/NXT matches that I need to see so he'll actually go up my list.
