Who had the best 2013?

Which wrestler had the best 2013?  Now this is not who is the best wrestler.  Those lists would seldom change.  The question is who had the most success and good matches and feuds and yes championships.

Missing the list this year are regulars like John Cena, who missed time because of injury in addition to losing the title, CM Punk, who spent too much time with Paul Heyman fighting nobodies and getting pinned by Heyman, and Austin Ares, who seems to have disappeared completely from TNA.

So without further ado.

5. Magnus - Ending the year as champ clearly helped, but he had shots at the main event all year, participated in beating Aces and Eights at Lethal Lockdown, and beat Sting at Bound for Glory.  All in all, a good year.

4. Kahagas - The Toyko Monster started the year as the NWA Heavyweight Champion.  He dropped in March, but before April was over he had won the North American Championship, which he retained all year.

3. Randy Orton - The Legend Killer appeared in some big matches such as the Elimination Chamber, had a great feud with Daniel Bryan prior to the title feud, won the Money in the Bank, won the WWE title (although dubiously), and unified the titles to end the year.  Pretty good run.

2. Daniel Bryan - The master of the Yes Lock won the WWE title and was stripped of it over and over.  He showed he was super over with the crowd.

1. Rob Conway - The Ironman won the NWA World Title early in the year, and would become the first World Champ to have both the World Title and Tag Titles.  He kept both to the end of the year.  Making history and having a 200+ title reign is the best of the best this year.
