Once again, it’s on! 2025 marks the SEVENTH annual #BRP50 List, which the Black Rasslin’ Podcast releases on Juneteenth, aka our yearly look at the Top 50 Black pro wrestlers currently working in the squared circle. We look at what each wrestler has done from May 2024 to May 2025, weighing each based on a certain criteria.
