Agreed on the MOTY for Styles/Kota - that finishing sequence came off like NJPW taking a dump on the RKO spot at Mania. Haven't gotten to see anything else on the card yet but looking forward to Bucks/Vice and am curious how good a Fale match could possibly be.

Getting there required build of course, and Fale and Okada work fine together, but for the first 80% of the match you'll probably be thinking,"What's so special about this?" - but the ending is incredible and puts the entire thing (and Okada's journey since his loss at WK9) into a great context.... which in turn makes the ending of the show even better.

The catch into the clash was cool, but I sort of saw it coming. Randy Orton threw a man 10 feet into the air with his head. Nothing can top that. HM - RPG Vice vs Young Bucks Incredibly fun match with some great spots, especially the count out fake out. HM - Okada vs Fale Standard fare elevated to HM level by a brilliant final 5 minutes. Fale rose to the occasion and Okada proved why he is one of the best in the world right now. Charles Gnarwin fucked around with this message at 03:58 on Apr 8, 2015 |

WMOTY: Beau James vs DeAndre Jackson 3/28 SSW TV https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e7cOFU-Yx3s It's the final match on that show. Keep in mind this piece of poo poo match had been built up for 5 months. That is the worst match of the year.

Someone ran a bunch of NECW one weekend on PSP-TV so when I ran out of Cowboy Who? I decided to run that. I think someone suggested I show SSW, and now youtube just suggests crappy indies for me which is how I found AIWF Mid Atlantic. They are responsible for the greatest ad in wrestling history: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hxuLJDQdKg4

I decided to search cagematch for SSW, and I learned that in 2010 SSW had Reid Flair and Ricky Morton vs. Frank Parker and Shanghai Pierce. I also learned that Frank Parker and Scott Sterling have also been in SSW for over 20 years.

epitasis posted:MOTYC: Young Bucks vs. Roppongi Vice, NJPW Invasion Attack, April 5 I vote for this as well. I just don't know how you put together a better tag match than this, and as the match I enjoyed the most on a show with a lot of good matches it deserves to be on the MOTYC list to me, and I'm hopeful that it ends up winning in the HM category.

HM - Neville vs. Dolph Ziggler - 4/13 Raw Awesome Raw match capped by an eye-popping spot. Great crowd heat. Could wind up being star-making for Neville. I miss the days (2013?) when Raw would have at least one borderline HM every week.
