I don't have an encyclopedic knowledge of the smaller shows, but I would say at least:

first of all the K-1 guys (Sudo, Yamamoto, etc), but K-1 is a major organization so this shouldn't count

Imanari
Kikuchi
Shields
Rampage
Lindland
Melendez

and just cause I like him, Maeda

Chris Horodecki and maybe Sam Guillet. Mark my words, they will own non-japanese lightweight divisions someday...

Good revival, I’d love to see Chris Wilson in a big show.

There are a lot of fighters who have been to the big show that should be brought back

There are a lot of IFL guys who could step up. Radach, The Janitor, Hieron, Horwich and Rothwell,

Lindland, Doerkson, Ninja and Mayhem Miller all belong in a big show as well.
