Last year, you may have recalled that I posted the finished product of a list called the A1W 100. The balloting was confined to those who had accounts at A1-Wrestling. This year though, I've decided to open things up a little bit. That's right, I'm going to open the voting up to you, the readers and commenters of The Wrestling Blog! Here are the specifics:

1. The list will be compiled by ballots sent in by you, the voters. These ballots will have a minimum of 25 wrestlers on it and a maximum of 100. Any number within those numbers is valid. The ballot MUST BE in order. Any ballot containing fewer than 25 or more than 100, then that ballot will be thrown out. Anyone who wants to submit a ballot is eligible to submit one.

2. To be eligible to be on a ballot, a wrestler must have wrestled in at least ONE match in a wrestling promotion based in the United States between the dates of 1/1 and 12/31 in calendar year 2010.

3. Ballots may be submitted to Tom Holzerman/TH either by PMing him at A1 or by sending a ballot to a1w.100.2010@gmail.com. Ballots must be received by March 14th, 2010 at 11:59:59 PM, EST, give or take a second.

4. All ballots are subject to scrutiny from TH and a select few other administrators. If any ballot received is deemed as suspicious of being a troll ballot, it will be thrown out.

So, there you have it. We're breaking out the A1W 100 in a big way this year, and hopefully, all you guys and gals out there who read this blog and have an appreciation for the matches in the ring have your voice heard. Last year, we got 20 ballots or so limiting things to one solitary website. Let's make this the most comprehensive in-ring, work-based list out there!

Remember you can contact TH and ask him questions about wrestling, life or anything else. Please refer to this post for contact information. He always takes questions!
