SlamBooking Indie Top 10
Editorially curated · September 2026
1Cappuccino Jones
SlamBookingWWE ID visibility + Reality of Wrestling Championship + continued independent bookings + Evolve appearances. Appeared on WWE Evolve in August and was featured in FSW's Heavyweight Championship scramble. No longer just a prospect — a nationally recognizable independent name.
2Richard Holliday
Possibly the most consistently active nationally traveling independent wrestler of the month. Appeared across multiple promotions and markets in August while continuing to carry the NWA Exodus Pro Championship. Activity + championship + geographic reach + established name.
3Silas Mason
NWA Worlds Heavyweight Champion. The NWA has him defending the championship across the country, including a scheduled August 22 defense against Heath in Tampa. Hard to ignore the person carrying one of wrestling's most historically recognizable championships.
4Atticus Cogar
Entered August as GCW Champion and #1 on The Indy Wrestling Experience's intergender ranking. One of the strongest examples of someone whose independent wrestling credibility is currently greater than his mainstream name recognition.
5Charles Mason
Entered August with multiple championships and was #6 on IWE's men's ranking and #4 on its intergender ranking. His advantage is consistency — he's not dependent on one promotion or one style.

Claire Amber LeJitsu
Owasso, OK
Claire Amber LeJitsu has quickly established herself as the most influential person on the Oklahoma independent circuit. Covering a great portion of the state and now also into Arkansas. As the self-proclaimed "Queen of FNP," she thrives on disruption, positioning herself as the ultimate "Simp Collector" Claire possesses an uncanny ability to manipulate and “Instigate” the landscape of any match, whether she is operating from ringside or directly impacting the match from inside the ring! Currently, Claire serves as the primary manager for powerhouse Floyd Maystorm and acts as the essential valet for The Money Trail. She excels at drawing heat and tilting the odds in her clients' favor, proving that you don’t need a decade in the ring to dominate the locker room. Intelligent, opportunistic, and always looking for the next power play, Claire Amber LeJitsu is the smartest investment in professional wrestling today.

Anna Wood
Auckland, New Zealand
"An iron fist in a velvet glove" As New Zealand's first and only full-time female wrestling referee, I have rapidly progressed from a junior official to a respected senior official in just two years. With 197 matches under my belt as of March 2026, I've consistently sought to enhance my skills and knowledge, even flying myself to Australia to gain deathmatch experience. My commitment to the craft is reflected in my extensive travel up and down the North Island of New Zealand, and the first aid skills that I am constantly adding to. I am seldom to be found without my personal first aid kit in my gear bag, and I consider the safety of the performers I share the ring with to be my highest priority. I’ve cultivated a dedicated following on social media, resonating with fans due to my ability to connect with an audience, confident performance, and polished presentation. I am consistently a top merch seller at live events. Eager to expand my horizons, I am actively seeking further opportunities in 2026 to collaborate with promotions around the globe. My passion for wrestling continues to drive me, and I look forward to the adventures that lie ahead.
