In the wake of what would become the federation's most impactful W2 Event to date, the former Midwestern Company took on three competitors and started its journey as a juggernaut and a base roster of about 40 ballooned to over 100. The other companies' main belts were rechristened as the Eurasian, Inferno, and United States Championships, while the main men's and women's titles were rechristened as the Mania and Asylum belts, with all belts being gender-desegregated in the process.

The whole shebang culminated at Heart Condition 2025, where the fruits of the desegregation were made to bear, and the beginning rumblings of new forces proved to shake the very foundations of the once quiet Midwestern Front.

(All rankings are in relation to Current Roster as of end of July 2025)

1. SCHMETTERLING

Schmetterling came into the year the Men's Champion and, at the W2, not only did he reassert his place as champion in the wake of the belt desegregation but he won the first combined W2 setting his pace to be the Face of MAWL. Though he would go on to lose the belt at the Four Chambers, he held the torch before and after for new and old roster alike.

2. ZORA LUTHOR

Zora Luthor entered the W2 at a place where her previous empire had dissolved leaving just her and Jenkins the Butler. Though she initially struggled in the W2, she was able to get into the ears of several competitors over the course and worked her way first into Nor'Easter then worked her way to the top of Nor'Easter, reforming it in her image back into Zora Luthor International. Her underlings were willing to cede victories to her, causing her to get to the Final of the W2 before losing to Schmetterling. By that point, she was well on her point to rebuilding her empire and well-earning the title of "Corporate Corruptor."

3. MORGAN MAVERICK

Few people have gone through as much reinvention as Morgan Maverick, the unofficial nickname in the league being "Whiplash". She came into the year as a lovable Flight Instructor with Top Gun overtones and decided to embrace the fans' hate from the Football rivalry happening, throwing her weight in with Nor'Easter. Morgan became frustrated with Zora and stepped away, giving a brief foray as "The Woman of the Woods" before re-aligning with Zora Luthor. People may have had their misgivings with Maverick, but the shifting has served her well throughout, with her allegiances affording her some high profile victories.

4. IMOGEN

Imogen started the year as the Bubbly Disney Adult "Emma Janeer" convinced that good will always triumph over evil. One of Zora Luthor's biggest out-of-ring wins was convincing Emma that this was a pointless and futile concept, and to Luthor's credit, Imogen was most at home and having the most fun in her life shedding that cheerful image and focusing solely on herself. Imogen's win record racked up considerably following this shift. The Penthouse she got from the deal wasn't so bad, either.

5. RADE

Rade steamrolled through his second W2 in a row as a near-indestructible monster with a near-perfect record, clocking only 2 losses before the Final Tournament and none before Round 8. Though Rade once again was taken out in the Men's Final, he created more than his share of nightmares in that process and made an undeniable series of effects, including being the final straw preventing most of the 11 potential Path 2 Glory recruits from being recruited there and taking the soul of fan-favorite backstage interviewer of Ann Lee, returning her as the cold and sadistic voice of his destruction.

6. SYNFUL SYNDY SWEET

The throughline about who has done well has seemed to boil down to cutting dead weight - both in terms of person and in terms of morals - to free yourself. Sweet was at first the tag partner and best friend of Taylor Tekk but found herself constantly frustrated in having to overperform to make up for his inadequacies. In her own HBK-Window moment, she gave up in a big way on Taylor, absolutely brutalizing him throughout the Nickelodeon Universe at the MAWL of America, and became one of the first Trios Champions with her stable SugarKoma in the process.

7. DANGEROUS JOHNNY DAGGER

Ironically, Taylor Tekk had the opposite effect on Dagger than he did on Sweet, and in seeking to rescue Tekk Dagger reignited his passion for the ring, which had been dormant. That fire being relit brought Dagger to recommit to an energy and a fighting style that clicked more, as well as reminding him of his joy of being in a team, and his victory count started growing from there. Dagger could have languished in the midcard or lower but came out of February on the up.

8. GOOD DUDE GREG ARIAS

Arias' bright and shining smile being a salve for even the most dour of audience members, it has historically belied a very smash mouth and submission style that has thrown opponents in the ring but that people for the most part don't mind losing to. Arias was the Comeback Kid in the W2, starting towards the bottom of the pile and working his way up with resolve and determination. His Big Boise Energy has carried through to astounding success.

9. KALPANA

Kalpana convinced herself coming into the year that she didn't need a gimmick and she'd let her work do the talking and that she'd ride the waves of success on this. Her past and circumstances sank her hopes and dreams and she decided to lean into herself and her bitterness, which buoyed by Zora Luthor's backing, has led her to titles with people who had previously betrayed her and victories over people who'd crossed her. In finding the part of her that had Kal-Hell on deck, she hit her stride quickly and brutally.

10. SUGAR COOKI

Unlike her teammate Syndy and Sprinkl, Sugar Cooki knew and accepted who she was from the beginning and was willing to do whatever it wakes to get it done, and the only confusion comes from her enemies who don't realize who she is until it's too late. It was through this that Sugar singlehandedly won her team the Trios Titles, the feat that undoubtedly made the difference in where she was placed in this Power 50.
