Hello there, my very good friends, Andy here for World Culture Wrestling, and we got something

fun for you today. We're going to talk about the wrestlers that I think are poised to break out

in 2026. As 2025 comes to an end, we're looking forward now to wrestlers who are going to, I don't

know, be here at the start of the year and go all the way off camera up here, potentially. Now,

ideally when you're talking about breakout wrestlers,

you'd be talking about people who are coming from a place of obscurity and suddenly inserting them the self in the wrestling sphere

to where everybody knows their name, right?

It's not the case with every single person on this list,

but it is the case with every person on this list that they will be soaring to previously unseen heights, to heights they've never been before in their wrestling careers in 2026.

I've got people who are already on WW's main roster here, but I think are going to fly next year. I've got a person on here

who has never had a single match yet. So it's a fun, varied one for sure. And look, if we're

looking at examples for this year, people I think who have broken out, Kyle Fletcher is a great

example over in AEW pretty much established now as one of the top players in that company

and a future main eventer on a regular basis. Javon Evans in WWE, he had a sneakily long indie run

before joining WWE despite being obscenely young, but now everybody knows who Javon Evans is.

I'd also throw Marina Shefier on there.

She's been around for a while, but this was the year she really found her voice.

And if the Def Rider story has been good for anyone, it's probably her.

But let's get this list on the road.

I'm Andy from What Culture.

Here are eight wrestlers poised to break out in 2026.

Number eight, Lash Legend.
