It did in my book (Tanahashi vs. Okada-WK10), but I admit that I'm taking booking into account and my personal biases are in play here as well. That might've been my favorite match ever

There is not a hypothetical timeline where Zayn vs Nakamura is not MOTY. The possibility is nonexistent.

Yeah, maybe it's the emotional drain, but I didn't think it was quite as good as either the tag match of the transcendental nakamura/zayn match

I'll watch it again later and maybe change my opinion

The crowd started dead, hotted up, and then died again like 3/4 of the way through and that killed the MOTYC potential for me

Some teeth long for ripping, gleaming wet from black dog gums. So you keep your eyes closed at the end. You don't want to see such a mouth up close. before the bite, before its oblivion in the goring of your soft parts, the speckled lips will curl back in a whinny of excitement. You just know it.
Is there a Match Of All Time category, because I seriously don't think I've ever seen anything on the level of Zayn/Nakamura. Anything, anywhere.

Nakamura/AJ at WK10 is great, and Tanahashi/Okada at the same show is the best match I have ever seen live and a stronger contender for the best match I've ever seen in my life.

Not to take anything away from Nakamura/Zayn because that was amazing.

No more nominations from me for the NXT show. Tag & Zayn/Naka were awesome. Others were good but not on the same level.

HM for every other non-Corbin match on the card.

And seconding the HM for Shibata/Kojima because I finally watched that last night too.

I loved Nakamura/Styles, both of those are really close. I don't know, I was soured by the whole fact that Tana/Okada happened last year going in. I'll agree it was worth it and perfect in almost every other way in the end, but boy I really don't want to see that match ever again and especially not at a Wrestle Kingdom. If it's still the last Tana/Okada match by year's end, my opinion will probably change.

As is, this will definitely be NXT MOTY no contest.

I'll Nth the Bayley/Asuka HM too

Joe/Balor would have been a MOTYC if it carried on like the opening exchanges instead of the constant stoppages but it can't be helped I guess.

Nth all of these. Tag match was fantastic but some parts were a bit sloppy.

I had a big smile on my face for the entire duration of the Nakamura/Zayn match. Their ring chemistry wasn't what I expected it to be but it was still an amazing match.

All of these. I think Nakamura vs Zayn just edged out Tana vs Okada for MOTY thus far, I haven't been this into a match in a while.
