The January 2024 Pro Wrestling Illustrated's Women's 250 issue is now out online and to the public. WWE's Rhea Ripley is the number one women's wrestler on the magazine's poll.
This blogger was skimming through the magazine and it was a welcome sight to see some women's names from Southeast Asia that are more than deserving. SPWs - Alexis Lee, Yuki Kamifuku and Yappy were the recognizable names that I saw there. However, after looking through the list several times, there was a glaring omission. The omission is Crystal with the Manila Wrestling Federation.
This blogger knows it's difficult coming up with a list like this. Seeing the men's list, there was a lot of grumbling going on there.
However, Crystal has had two titles in 2023 in the MYPW Wrestlcon Championship and the APAC Women's Title. She has faced the top competition in the Southeast Asia region this year. If I was putting this list together, Crystal would very easily be on my list.
The names I mentioned above deserve to be there. However, Crystal should be joining them!
