Undisputed Rankings – 01/23/2021
What a month, what a show and what a huge change in the IGNITE Wrestling Top 10 Undisputed Rankings as a woman has made the list for the first time and we have seen major changes as voted for by our ranking committee comprised of select IGNITE fans.
The shock of the day is the crowning of a new champion as our belt was vacated and Kilynn King cashed in her contract to face the surprise opponent Leon The Terrible. Other significant changes include ranking increases for Justin Blax, the inclusion of Timmy Lou Retton and moves from Beastly.
Come May, we will see who remains, who joins the ranking and our champion on his first defense. Stay tuned!

IGNITE Wrestling Lapel Pins Become This Season’s Hot Item
IGNITE Wrestling Lapel Pins become this season’s hot item as they launched for the holiday shopping season. Lapel pins have had quite the resurgence in recent years so it is no surprise that our fans have asked for (and will receive) the opportunity to purchase their very own IGNITE Wrestling lapel pins to add to their collections. There is a lapel pin for everybody today, it appears. There are designs for nature lovers, environmental activists, shoppers, music fans, and artists. So naturally, they have taken off in pro wrestling for fans who want something to show their love and support of indy wrestling, particular companies, and wrestlers that they love and support.
When you think about it pretty much everyone has at some point in their lives bought a lapel pin. You might have seen pins from cartoon shows, sporting teams and how many times have you seen the Presidents wearing the American Flag as a lapel pin?
What we love is that you don’t have to wear them just on your jackets. Of course, they naturally look great in denim and leather jackets but pins aren’t limited to just be worn in jackets, they can work on your hat, scarf, backpack, purse, or satchel. The possibilities are endless.
Ready to start or add an IGNITE Wrestling lapel pin to your collection? Just visit our shop to grab yours today!
Captain Aaron Nova To Debut At IGNITE Wrestling Fifth Anniversary Show
Florida indy wrestler “Captain” Aaron Nova is set to debut on January 23, 2021 against the returning Jarett Diaz in singles action. This marks the first singles appearance for Diaz who has appeared in “scramble” matches in previous shows showcasing his talent against other young and hungry performers for the opportunity to move into singles action. Nova, who has appeared in several parody videos with That Klassic Tag Team is known for his highly entertaining promo videos. We look forward to what both these young lions bring to the ring and to the fans.

Serpentico Is Officially All Elite
We are excited for Serpentico as his “is he/isn’t he” status in All Elite Wrestling (AEW) has finally been put to rest in an exclusive interview with Inside The Ropes. Serpentico has confirmed that he is indeed All Elite. Our favorite masked wrestler has become a mainstay on the AEW Dark roster since March wrestling as Jon Cruz and Serpentico on various shows for the company. But his career-defining moment came when he tagged on the 30th Anniversary Match with Luther (Chaos Project) against the Demo God Chris Jericho and Jake Hager.
Fans began to question his ongoing IGNITE Wrestling storyline when he challenged newly crowned Undisputed Champion Troy Hollywood but we were mum on this match for our upcoming show until last week when we opened the match up to challengers for the title.
MAJOR ANNOUNCEMENT:
— IGNITE Wrestling 🔥 (@IGNITEWrestling) October 16, 2020
Due to Serpentico’s schedule and obligations in AEW, our title match against Troy Hollywood will be changed.
IGNITE Management is carefully considering what new challenger will be facing Troy Hollywood for the Undisputed Title.
While we had not confirmed his status at that time, we realized we needed to fill that match for our upcoming show and we will be announcing that contestant soon. Meanwhile, we wish Serpentico all the best in AEW and although we are heartbroken to see him leave, we knew that his talent would lead him to the biggest stages in wrestling. Love ya Snakeman and we urge you all to tune in and watch him as well as check out his indy matches on our Youtube channel.
