UPDATED FOR MAY 2025:


While you're waiting for Rebellion results, wet your whistle with some ELO for May! Rebellion obviously doesn't factor into this, but May Day does!

I'll also take the time to announce now that June will see the first of a few tweaks of ELO that I'm looking at putting in. That one will be a bit more of a Version 1.1, while I also start testing some more robust Version 2 changes with the aim to better reward wins and see some bigger changes in these rankings. Those changes won't land until later in the year after I see if I've got the formula changes right, but hopefully it makes these more exciting and allows for more impact for knocking off people higher up the list than you!

Getting back to this month...

ACHIEVEMENT UNLOCKED!!!

• Ladies and gentlemen... please join me in giving a heartfelt congratulations to Tommy Wish, who this month ticked up his 128th recorded match in the ELO system, entering the Top 5 number of recorded matches - tied with XWF Legend Centurion at 5th.
  

Biggest ranking rise:

• James Shark - There was only one choice here. The Universal Champion defended successfully at May Day and it was enough to see him rise up 2 spots in the rankings this month! June will be interesting though...
  

Highest debut/return:

• King Kieran - I flagged him last month to keep your eye one, and after going to a draw with Mark Flynn at May Day, the reigning AND defending King of the XWF returns to the list at number 3. 
  

ACHIEVEMENT UNLOCKED!!! PART TWO!

• Sebastian Everett-Bryce - This month SEB ticks up his 7th month in total at the number one spot, tying Corey Smith at 5th place for most total months at number one (regardless of how many reigns)! Congrats, and thank you for being the flag bearer for the fed that you have been.
  

Eyes on:

• Charlie Nickles - With two achievements to acknowledge this month, I'm going to cheat again with this nod. Knowing what we know about how Rebellion is going to pan out given the rps. Charlie Nickles has a big ratings gain coming his way in June. What will that do to the rankings?
