Onto the next. THE TOP 50 NCW SUPERSTARS OF ALL TIME: #33
KRISTOFF LIAM BATES
Career Accomplishments: NCW Honor Champion NCW Xtreme Champion NCW Tag Team Champion (W/ Jimmy Zane) NCW Rookie of the Year (2009) Comments: Perhaps the boldest character ever to grace an NCW ring, Kristoff Liam Bates made history by being the first openly gay character to compete in NCW. Anyone who didn't take him seriously in the ring found out the hard way, Bates defeated a bevy of legends and Hall of Fame superstars including Trent Helms, Spike Kane, Xander Famularo and Rob Diamond. Bates was also very close to winning a world title match, but lost out to Will Washington in the Coliseum in 2010. In addition to singles gold. KLB and Jimmy Zane managed to capture the tag team titles in 2010, proving himself to a worthy tag partner as well. Bates broke down a lot of barriers in his career, giving him the #33 spot.
