Utterly wasted in Evolve this year which is a shame because if you look at the places that have done interesting things and matches with him this year (NOVA, AIW, Action, SUP) he's delivered basically every time out. The feuds with Stallion, Lawlor and to a lesser degree Sage Phillips have proved not only that he can deliver with in meaningful matches, but that he can deliver at a high level in meaningful matches. Still rough around the edges in some ways, but some of those ways are clear positives and not negatives.

The only place I really see him in is Evolve, but he's managed to get himself into my top 100 and stay there for most the year, mainly due to a tag match he had against Ringkampf in January. He's getting close to falling out now, but if I binge through some shows on Powerbomb like I plan to before the end of the year he's someone I expect to see move up a bit

Figured I'd do a recommended match list for him because I actually think he has a dense resume and I've actually seen very little of him in his home promotion (AIW)
Recommended Matches
- w/Tracy Williams vs WALTER/Timothy Thatcher, 1/13 EVOLVE* - vs Juice Robinson, 1/19 AIW - vs Curt Stallion, 2/25 SUP* - w/Tracy Williams vs James Drake/Anthony Henry vs Parrow/Odinson, 4/5 EVOLVE* - vs Jake Garvin, 4/13 PWF - vs Curt Stallion, 4/22 SUP* - vs Gunner Miller, 4/27 Action - vs Sage Phillips, 5/11 NOVA Pro - vs Louis Lyndon, 5/25 AIW - vs Jonathan Gresham, 6/8 NOVA Pro - vs Sage Phillips, 6/9 NOVA Pro - vs Jeff Cobb, 6/10 SUP - vs Sage Phillips, 7/6 NOVA Pro - vs Tom Lawlor, 7/27 AIW* - vs JD Drake, 8/5 EVOLVE - vs Lexus Montez, 8/10 PWF* - vs Cain Justice, 8/17 Action - vs Kevin Ku, 8/24 NOVA Pro - w/Kevin Ku vs Jonathan Gresham/Sage Phillips, 9/21 NOVA Pro - vs Wheeler YUTA, 9/23 SUP (stay for whole segment)
I left a few things off which I enjoyed (vs Thatcher Mania weekend, vs Cash Flo PWF) which I thought probably appeal less to others. While I think all of these are worth going out of your way to see, the * denotes matches that I think are absolute standouts across the landscape of 2018 and should be seen by anyone considering him for their ballot.
