NotQuiteQuentin posted:I think for stuff that's taped for airing we go by air date but if it's just a live show (PWG), it's actual date. This makes sense to me. LU is primarily a TV show, so it's fair to count a match orginially aired this year as a 2015 match imo.

Illinois Smith posted:They're both the top guys? Both went through the DDT dojo and have spent their whole career there, Ibushi is just popular enough that it doesn't really matter whether he has a belt all the time or not. Also HARASHIMA has been around a few years longer and DDT's titles on the whole are more props for stories than an indication of where a guy stands on the roster totem pole. People's spots there are a lot more fluid than in other places. I could also see his dual contract with NJPW possbily affecting their willingness to put their top belt on him. I don't think he's had it since he signed.

Yeah, the trios match and Honma/Ibushi were really fun matches everyone should watch, but I'd hesitate to call either a HM. The later was hurt slightly by the fact that every NJPW fan could of predicted it in their heads move for lmove before it even happened. I personally felt the three way jr tag match was disappointing when you look at what all three teams are capable of. Thauros fucked around with this message at 21:26 on Feb 11, 2015 |

That was an HM to me. It pains me to say it becuase those two guys are among my favorite wrestlers, but parts of the match were definitely flawed and the bad crowd took it down a notch. It's still probably the second best match I've seen today. Spermgod posted:I have to admit that with how trigger happy people are with the MOTYC noms here I'm a bit befuddled at that getting HM nods. My own guideline for MOTYC based on what I believe HulkaMatt himself said in a previous one is that if I can rate it ****1/4 or better I give it a nod even if I can't really see myself actually voting it for MOTY at the end of the year. If I took the latter approach something woukd have to be as good as Nakamura/Ibushi and that's bloody unlikely. Thauros fucked around with this message at 04:10 on Feb 12, 2015 |

Finally saw the Bullet Club vs. ROH trios match. Really fun spotfest that was elevated by an incredibly hot crowd. Cool to see three current IWGP champions show up on ROH tv. Anyone who still hasn't gotten around to seeing it yet should defintiely check it out on the ROH site for free before the new TV episode goes up on Thursday.

I'll give the title match a MOTY nod. Great match and that was the most I've been emotionally invested in a WWE match since MITB 2011. Rusev vs. Cena's on the borderline of HM I guess. HHH vs Sting was a fun spectacle that I couldn't even really give a rating to. Nothing else was really nomination worthy for good or bad reasons, and it was a really fun show overall thanks to Mania bullshit and it surpassed my expectations.

I think I'm the only PSP poster who was actually there since hate man refuses to post, but you all need to check War of the Worlds out when you can.

that was closer to a WMOTC than a HM but doesn't really warrant either imo. Nothing on this show has so far, the tag match was really good but not quite HM levels.

Agreed that the ridiculous finisher sequences are basically just part of what makes the Bucks what they are, but while I think the Styles Clash is a fine finisher unlike many people on here I do think it's dumb that AJ does a ganso bomb as a setup to it rather than a super powered big match variant finisher.
