Sam said he had the best Beyond match of the year against Tracy Williams. I'm guessing it was totally different than the insane and awesome Tremont match from the last Beyond event. I'm a big fan of him in general and have seen a few other matches of his this year so he's the kind of guy I'd probably find room for if he had say 3 or 4 matches this year that I think are legit great. Could be helped by a deep dive I suspect.

Still need to see the Tremont match but if it is near the level of the Tracy Williams match then he's an easy pick for my list. The Williams match was a lovely size versus experience match. Romero, real good seller for someone that borders on 400 lbs (slimming down though). Takes a real beating from Williams and keeps friggin' coming. Beyond put it up for free apparently which is CRAZY! 100% required viewing. To think it wasn't supposed to even happen.
Ace also has a really fun match against AR Fox from CZW's EVILution and a GREAT match against MJF from CZW's Down with the Sickness. CZW giving him a Greg Excellent program is weird. Fox match is a sweet spotfest, an environment Romero thrives. Romero is incredibly good at doing athletic things in the least athletic way. Keith Lee looks natural doing a moonsault. He's a massive man but makes his stuff look good. Romero makes his stuff look ugly and violent as sin. I mean that in the best way possible. His dropkick looks super ugly and I love it. Romero has the Black Hole Slam that is a great finish and near fall. Hope Beyond lines him up for a few more bangers to wrap up the year.

Yeah that Hot Sauce match was really fun. The Tremont match was better

I've really liked Romero in what I've seen from him this year. That match with Tremont was tremendous. He has a pretty decent chance of making my list. It's just a matter of how much of his work I end up getting to by the end of the year.

One of only a couple of people that I go out of my way to watch. On top of what's already been mentioned, the FBTW match against AR Fox up in Limitless was a lovely little hardcore romp. That was probably the first time it crossed my mind that this guy just leans into whatever he's given. Whether it's matches against bigger stars that are taking it easy slumming it on the smaller indies or breakout semi-main events in CZW, this guy takes the ball and runs with it. Haven't seen a match where he's pulled punches yet, mostly because hey, he uses that size of his well.

Tremont match was great, works well with almost everyone I have seen. Possibly might be a low 90s high 80s slot in the list

His match with Silver from the latest Beyond show is another hoot. Dude kills it at these crazy intense sprints. Someone curate a top 10 List for him this year, he feels like a guy who should be top 30 based on the handful of matches I’ve seen

He's officially snuck into my Top 100. And I want to watch more and I want him to go even higher.
Feel like he could be a huge deal in 2018 if the right people give him enough buzz.
Also, the sicko in me wants to see him work a match with WALTER.

I think he will end up in my top 10 which probably shouldn't be the most surprising thing. If you deliver nothing but HOOTS every time out. The Tremont, Silver, and Fox matches are all more than worth your time. I think the Tracy Williams match is incredible but outside of that I don't think he has another BIG TIME standout match.
Need to watch his matches against Josh Briggs as that seems like two big athletic dudes with potential who can do some things.

I finally watched that match with Hot Sauce and it really is a hoot. Really good shot at making my list now.
