With Flo Majors now complete for the 2012-13 season, the list of champions will be tallied here. By virtue of winning a title at a Flo Major, all Champions have secured a seed at this year’s Flonationals. 

Of course other entries, depending upon their credentials, can earn a seed. Information on Flonationals, to be held April 5-6 can be found here.

A few exceptional wrestlers won four Flo Majors this season. 
Amazingly, Isaiah Martinez made the finals at 6 majors, winning four crowns at Super 32, Reno, Doc Buchanan, and Temecula Valley. Kyle Snyder joins the club with these four: Super 32, Ironman, Beast of the East, and Powerade. Zahid Valencia matches them with titles at Freak Show, Ironman, Doc Buchanan, and Temecula Valley.
