Interviews
| Rank | Name | Notes |
| 1 | Calypso | He was the face of the BBA, and also a 4 time World Heavyweight Champion. He never lost a main event P.P.V. match, and was also a World Television Champion, Intercontinental Champion, United States Champion, Tag-Team Champion, and Hardcore Champion. Also never lost a 2-out-of-3 Falls match, and was known as the Administrator of the BBA. |
| 2 | Johnny Shotgun (formerly The Arch Angel & Airborne Xtreme) | Despite a lengthy absence from late 2001 to spring of 2002, "The Human F'n Highlight" was the second most important Brawler in BBA history. He was a 4 time Undisputed World Champion, Intercontinental Champion, World Television Champion, Tag-Team Champion, and Hardcore Champion. |
| 3 | Real Deal Rob | "The Old School Icon" may have joined BBA at the midway point, but he was known as the biggest heel in BBA history. Historic feuds with Calypso, Triple A, and "The Franchise" propelled RDR to become the first Undisputed World Champion in BBA history. He also was a self-proclaimed "Real" World Heavyweight Champion. |
| 4 | "The Franchise" John Hanley | The 2-time BBA Undisputed World Champion was a pinnacle BBA Brawler. He began the movement that brought over the members of the defunct rival OWF wrestling federation. His hardcore style gave him the moniker "the Extreme Icon", and provided five star matches against against Brawlers like RDR, Viper, and Calypso. |
| 5 | M80 | The ultimate underdog managed to break through the glass ceiling of midcarder and became one of the most important BBA Undisputed World Champions in history. The next-generation cX member was able to also capture the World Television Championship, Intercontinental Championship, Hardcore Championship, and World Lightweight Championship. |
| 6 | Bucktooth Willy | Willy was one of the most dedicated members in BBA history. Although the ever important World Championship was never attained, he was able to capture reigns as World Television Champion, Intercontinental Champion, Hardcore Champion, and World Lightweight Champion. He was a mainstay in BBA throughout 2000 and most of 2001. |
| 7 | Above Average Angelo (formerly known as Angelove) | Triple A was an enigma in the BBA. Championships were not a plenty for him, as he only had one reign as Hardcore Champion. However, the former Network member propelled himself up the ladder through hilarious promos, and the Angelove gimmick which was loved by all. Angelo proved that championship reigns were not the only thing a Brawler needed to become noticed in the BBA. |
| 8 | The Meteor | The original C-X member was one of the founding fathers of BBA. He was the CEO, and a former World Heavyweight Champion, Intercontinental Champion, World Television Champion, and Tag Team Champion. He also innovated (with Shotgun) the B.O. match, and the B.L.C. match (with Calypso & Forsaken). |
| 9 | Viper | The "Total F'n Package" probably should be listed as the 5th or 6th Brawler on the All-Time Rankings, but things held him back. The former United States and Intercontinental Champion put on some five star matches in his day with Biohazard and John Hanley, but he always seemed to no-show some important event. Despite the dedication problem, Viper is still able to sneak in the top ten of all time. |
| 10 | The Impostor | The oldest reigning BBA Brawler besides Calypso & Shotgun. His early days saw him as a World Television Champion and Hardcore Champ, but he fell on hard times in 2002. He became less of a World Title threat and became more of a stepping stone for future stars. Despite this, The Impostor was one of the most disturbing characters in BBA history. To this day, his identity has not been revealed. |
| 11 | Chuck Fury | The "Man Monster" is the first BBA Brawler on this list without a championship reign. He no-showed potential career changing events in Realm of Champions and Hotter Than Hell, but still put on amazing matches with Brawlers like M80, Don Davis, and Calypso. Despite the ever important big 2 no-shows, he was the most dedicated big man in BBA history. |
| 12 | Jason Christopher | Christopher was destined for great things, like a future World Championship. However, he joined BBA late in the game and was never given that opportunity. In the end, he was one of the last United States Champions in BBA history. He put on five star matches with John Hanley and Calypso in his short career. |
| 13 | Crazy Joe | Crazy Joe is the lowest ranked World Heavyweight Champion on this list. He had some memorable moments in the early days of BBA, which got him reigns as World Television, Tag-Team Champion, and Hardcore Champion. He was also an Original C-X member and Next Generation cX member. He never showed the dedication that his initially intended, but a return in summer of 2002 kept him higher on this list that he probably should have been. |
| 14 | Mike Savage | Although his in-ring career was short, Mike "The Spike" Savage was an influential BBA force. He was a 2 time BBA Commissioner, and a Next Generation cX member. His comical feuds with M80 and Rob Sternberg allowed him to become a dominant figure in the BBA. |
| 15 | Don Davis | Double D, much like Chuck Fury, was an outstanding big man in the BBA. He really began to blossom in the later days of BBA's existence, as he had three great matches with the aforementioned Chuck Fury. He would have been higher on this list if he was around longer and was able to feud with others, but he still made quite the impact. |
| 16 | Rob Sternberg | Color Commentator turned Network leader, turned Commissioner made life living hell for several superstars. His feuds with Calypso, M80, Mike Savage, and Flawless made for some of the most memorable moments of BBA history. His ability to enrage the fans made him a bigger heel in the BBA than most wrestlers. He was the runner-up in the Realm of Champions II battle royal. |
| 17 | Firestarter | The former World Television and Hardcore Champion was destined for great things, but became quite unreliable in the end of BBA. His "feud" with Bucktooth Willy was one for the ages, and was the only member in BBA history to become members of both The Network and cX. |
| 18 | Flawless | The "Japanese Superstar" had a great, yet brief career in the BBA. His hardcore/high-flying blend style made him one of the most popular BBA members of his time. He won the World Television Championship and Hardcore Championship, and became a major force in the Network. His career was cut short when Sternberg had him deported back to Japan. |
| 19 | Backlash Brady | Backlash was given a "Chance of a Lifetime" against Calypso, and showed us that he was a proven competitor until the end. He won the United States Championship, and was the only Brawler to beat a cX member at "Hotter Than Hell". He was limited in the ring, but put on some great matches with Calypso, Jason Christopher, and "The Franchise". |
| 20 | Rich Field | The "100 Grand Man" never really picked up many wins in his BBA career, but was able to pick up a brief reign as Hardcore Champion. He was more notable for buying out the contracts of Chuck Fury and Firestarter. He became one of the biggest managing forces in the BBA, and one of the most hated as well. |
| 21 | Big Shot | Big Shot's career, like many, was on the rise as BBA was nearing its end. He was not involved in a ton of matches, but was able to make the people laugh with his natural charisma. He ended up winning the Cruiserweight Championship at Realm of Champions II: The Final Approach. |
| 22 | Perry "The Pecker" | The veteran referee officiated some of the most important matches in BBA history. Although he never became an official "Brawler", he was on the short end of some tempers in BBA including Albania giving him a ruptured anus, and Sternberg's firing of him. Very dedicated. |
| 23 | B.T.O.F. | The former Commissioner had a tumulus career in the BBA. His constant backstage antics gave him a bad reputation. On the other hand, he was a Hardcore Champion, and made some important decisions along his career despite his bad beef with Calypso. |
| 24 | Biohazard (formerly known as Pito) | Biohazard's career never took off the way it should. He only attended three shows in his entire career, and was still able to win the Intercontinental Title. Despite his non dedication, he put on three unbelievable matches with the likes of John Hanley, Viper, RDR, and Shotgun. Dedication was a real detractor. |
| 25 | Ultimate E | "Ultima" E was the tallest member in BBA history. His in ring credentials were short, but he was able to win the last Hardcore Championship match at Realm of Champions II. His size never really lived up to the potential, and his dedication was lacking. |
| 26 | Albania (formerly Dan "The Man" Alban & Jack Black) | Albania's natural charisma made him a star in BBA despite his few appearances. His heel turn becoming Dan "The Man" Alban showed us his promo skill potential, but was never really able to back it up in the squared-circle. He would go on to be one of the funniest commentators in BBA history. |
| 27 | Mike Kahn | Mike Kahn served as Jason Christopher's mouthpiece, and he couldn't have done a better job. He did such a good job, that "The Franchise" personally beat him up after he cost him the chance to win the BBA United States Championship. He knew how to get under Christopher's opponents skin. |
| 28 | The Punisher | The Punisher never really lived up to expectations. Despite high praise from Bucktooth Willy, Punisher only wrestled sporadically in 2001-2002. The two formed an alliance of sorts, but was dropped when Willy retired again. Punisher did on the other hand, cut good promos and took place in one of the funniest matches in BBA history with Backlash, Shotgun, and Fury. |
| 29 | Khaos Kid | Khaos Kid had untapped potential, but his ego never let him get the push he desired. He won the World Television Championship, and was the reason the title was retired (the first time). He only randomly showed up to shows, and was wasn't involved in any storylines. |
| 30 | Yard Dogg | Yard Dogg wrestled in two dark matches for BBA, and even made the roster. However, he never appeared on an official show because of his no-shows. He finally made his BBA debut in the Hardcore Title invitational at the last BBA show, Realm of Champions II. |
| 31 | Pyro Maniac | Pyro Maniac had potential to become a force in BBA. After destroying his brother in a try-out dark match, Pyro Maniac dominated M80 in his only official match before M80 was able to squeak away with the win. Pyro Maniac never appeared in a BBA show again. |
| 32 | Tommy Hawk (formerly known as Tomikaze) | Hawk only wrestled in one match, and lost to Bucktooth Willy and Shotgun. He came back to referee another match, and was never heard from again. His unwillingness to compete led to his firing. |
| 33 | John Doe | Not much is known about John Doe, except that he tagged with Jason Christopher and won his match the week before the return of "The Franchise". Doe and Hanley have similar appearances, what's up with that? |
| 34 | Bryan Blade | Blade and Viper helped RDR secure his victory against Triple A at Total Carnage, as the three of them were supposed to form the next super stable in BBA. BBA folded, as did the faction. |
| 35 | Q-Bappy | In his only official match, Q-Bappy beat the Norman Smiley impersonator the week before New Year's Nightmare. He also appeared in a dark match between Calypso & The Impostor in which he was beat up by the interfering Backlash Brady. His small stature often gave him the moniker "the midget". |
| 36 | Norman Smiley | This Norman Smiley impersonator touted himself to be the next Norman Smiley, but was quickly defeated by Q-Bappy in the last show before New Year's Nightmare. |
| 37 | Firecracker | No relation to Firestarter, however he was the brother of Pyro Maniac. He was soundly defeated by his older (and much larger) brother in a try-out dark match in 2000. BBA opted to not offer him a contract after his poor showing. |
| 38 | Tonka | Tonka was one of the original BBA members, but on the day he was scheduled to join, Calypso seriously injured his ankle in a backstage altercation with Tonka and thus he never debuted. |
| 39 | Damion | Damion was supposed to be a dominant force in the BBA, his gimmick was that of a devil worshiper. BBA even began to build his debut, by playing Slipknot's "742617000027" to build his debut. Eventually the song would play into "(SIC)" on his debut. Due to contract disputes, the Damion character was dropped. |
| 40 | Emperor Pratt | Emperor Pratt accompanied Firestarter to the ring during his Hotter Than Hell 2-out-of-3 Falls match with Calypso. Pratt did nothing to help Firestarter, as Calypso defeated him 2-1. Pratt went on to then verbally abuse Firestarter after one of the falls, and was never heard from again. |
