Outlook - Joey Ryan is one of the top dogs on the SoCal indy scene, largely because of his company, Pro-Wrestling Guerrilla, being one of the hot items in that wrestling hot bed. Ryan was one of hungry kids a few years ago and he turned into a very capable worker with a bright future if he continues to develop. PWG has given Ryan a strong platform for himself as one of its top stars and he may be able to attract the attention of Japanese companies if he is lucky. Ryan does have a certain blandness that many people who idolized Benoit, Malenko and Guerrero have, but it is something he needs to move past. Otherwise, Ryan is a strong talent and someone with the ability to go places in the pro-wrestling world.
