Kingpin (6)

I believe the answer is:

bigwig

'kingpin' is the definition.
(synonyms)

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for bigwig that I've seen before include "Somebody" , "Important person (slang)" , "'Chief, top banana (6)'" , "Personage" , "Person of some importance" .)

I've seen this clue in the Family Time, the L.A. Times Daily, the Jonesin', the Sydney Morning Herald and The Washington Post.
