I put together a list (compiled from cagematch.net) of the most wwe matches worked so far in 2016:
EDIT NOTE: I originally had Miz at 170 because his page on the site was screwed up and counting every match twice. I should've figured it was off when one guy had that many more than everyone else. I've fixed the list
1. Dean Ambrose 139
2. Kevin Owens 133
3. Sami Zayn 125
3. Tyler Breeze 125
5. AJ Styles 119 (plus 9 others outside of WWE)
6. Jey Uso 118
7. Rusev 116
8. Zack Ryder 116
9. Becky Lynch 115
10. Dolph Ziggler 113
10. Sheamus 113
12. Charlotte 109

Goes to show who works hard and who is injury prone. This is why Miz gets the titles all the time. He doesn't put on amazing matches, but he's reliable. And Bex is at the top amongst women:becky

Oh yeah, you,re right. Miz is 33rd with 84 matches - less than Cesaro, who was out for the first few months. Gotta admit, I fell for the trick. Should have checked. :serious:
For the record, Dean is no. 1 with 138 matches.

You can just search this information on Cagematch and it orders it for you.
http://www.cagematch.net/?id=112&view=statistics&page=1&year=2016&month=all&promotion=1&region=&eventType=&limit=3

And the Miz is #33 with 84 matches

Every other wrestler you listed is correct.

Dean Ambrose and Kevin Owens being in the top 2 doesn't surprise me. Both of them haven't taken much time off this year. Plus, they've been competing without getting injured since the start of 2016. IMO they're definitely the WWE's workhorses.

Edit: Shit, I just realized how high Tyler Breeze is on that list lol

Heels nearly always lose house show matches.

If you think about it, it´s surprising they don´t get hurt more often. That is a totally insane schedule with all the travelling going on and the pay is pretty shitty. What are some of these bottomfeeders average out? $300-400 per match before tax and they have cover all the travel expenses.

The bottom guys make $50K a year? :aries2

I realise that but he seems to have a significantly lower win percentage than the vast majority of heels...even Baron Corbin (win ratio of 48%) and The Miz (win ratio of 39%) is significantly higher. Saying that...Seth Rollins is even lower.
Probably because faces win at houseshows is even more true of the main events than the rest of the card.

So the higher up the card the heel, the lower the win rate.
