Welp, I guess if you just want good technical matches with lots of action, search Youtube for Daniel Bryan, Seth Rollins, Dolph Ziggler, AJ Styles, Sami Zayn, Samoa Joe, Cesaro, & CM Punk for starters. Those are current and past WWE stars.

Ring of Honor might have a show in your area on one of the free TV networks like CW on weekends. Times and channels vary. You could also search Youtube for such RoH stars as Jay Lethal, Roderick Strong, & Adam Cole. Search for any name on this [page](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Ring_of_Honor_personnel) for that matter. RoH is a distant second to WWE as far as popularity goes, but their shows are awesome and many of their people eventually wind up with WWE.

For classic wrestlers who have definitely influenced today’s talent, search for Ric Flair, Terry Funk, Ricky Steamboat, “Macho Man” Randy Savage, Shawn Michaels, the Undertaker, Mick Foley (as Cactus Jack and Mankind), Stone Cold Steve Austin, The Rock (Dwayne Johnson), and many many others.

I’m sure my fellow threadsters can recommend more names to search.
