I'm sure it's already been nominated but MOTYC: Matt Cardona. vs Nick Gage - GCW Homecoming Night 1 - Jesus loving Christ what an amazing match

OFFICIAL RACIST
I've had some time to think about this, but why the gently caress not:

WMOTYC: Nikki A.S.H. vs Charlotte Flair, WWE RAW 7/26/21

Charlotte controlled 95% of the match, and the 5% she wasn't in control, she no sold Nikki's offense. The audience was completely apathetic to the match. The finish was hilariously dumb and made Nikki look like an even bigger loser. And the post match stuff was even more hilarious with Charlotte completely burying Nikki in a promo, Nikki throwing a temper tantrum and claiming that she was CLOSE to winning (she wasn't), and then getting her rear end kicked again. All while WWE turned on the heat machine while the audience was sitting in complete apathy.

DDT Summer Vacation Tour July 15th
MOTYC
Chris Brookes (c) vs Shinya Aoki (c) - DDT Extreme & Iron Man Heavymetalweight Championships - No DQ, No Submission Match
- What a stipulation, everything is legal unless it's life threatening. Except submissions, all submisisons are illegal (like ref Matsui was even giving them the five count for armringers at the beginning :laffo:). Watching these two guys fumble about and still put on a compelling match without the vast majority of their offence was absolutely fascinating. I've said it before and i'll say it again, DDT at it's best is far beyond wrestling, it's art.

HM
Eruption (Saki Akai, Yukio Sakaguchi and Kazusada Higuchi) vs DisasterBox (HARASHIMA and Naomi Yoshimura) and Keigo Nakamura
- Eruption continue to be the goddamn coolest, Harashima and Yoshimura still hit like trucks, and poor Keigo Nakamura got the piss beaten out of him, as is his wont

Junretsu (Jun Akiyama, Makoto Oishi and Yusuke Okada) vs 37KAMIINA (Konosuke Takeshita, MAO and Shunma Katsumata)
- Those Sauna boys are loving superstars, considering the oldest guy is only 28 if they can stay healthy they could carry the company on their back for the next decade plus. Uncle Jun was pretty quiet here, but Oishi and particularly Okada were working real hard to make up for it.

NOAH Up to Emotion July 22nd
HM
Los Perros del Mal de Japon (NOSAWA Rongai, Kotaro Suzuki and YO-HEY) vs Kongoh (Nioh, Haoh and Tadasuke)
- Aside from not knowing who is supposed to be the face in this feud because everyone is a raging arsehole (except Haoh who is a good lad with lovely friends), this match was a bunch of fun. Nosawa stayed the hell out of the way for the majority of the match and let the other five have a fast paced hard hitting match that was very entertaining

Kenoh vs Daisuke Nakamura
- A fun little UWF-lite match that Kenoh excells at but I haven't seen a ton from him since last years N-1. Far as I can tell his opponent is solely a mixed martial artist (or at least is unknown enough in wrestling to not have a cagematch profile) but he didn't look awkward in the ring like I remember Sakuraba did when he first came back. Not MOTYC but definitely seek this out if you enjoy the style

Kongoh (Manabu Soya and Katsuhiko Nakajima (c)) vs Masa Kitamiya (c) and Kaito Kiyomiya - GHC Tag Team Championships
- Masa and Katsu continue to bring the hate because they're goddamn lunatics, Soya brought the beef, and Kiyomiya was also there. Started off fast before slowing down a tad before sprinting towards the finish. Didn't feel this as much as I wanted to with the people involved but it was still a real good tag match.

NOAH Sanctuary July 27th
HM
Los Perros del Mal de Japon (NOSAWA Rongai, Kotaro Suzuki, Ikuto Hidaka and YO-HEY) vs Kongoh (Nioh, Haoh, Aleja and Tadasuke)
- So happy Kongoh have a new member, this unlocks endless possibilities for their dumb group poses. Thankfully they got rid of the chaff quickly and had a real fun elimination match with the most capable members. Some of the usual face/heel confusion inherent in the division but it was fun seeing Tadasuke as the fiery underdog babyface despite being, just, the biggest dickhead. Aleja got to show off his skills as well, it'll be interesting how he'll slot into the scene going forward.

Momo no Seishun (Daisuke Harada, Atsushi Kotoge, Hajime Ohara and Junta Miyawaki) vs Stinger (Yoshinari Ogawa, HAYATA, Yuya Susumu and Seiki Yoshioka)
- Started out on a sour note with an immediate dumb DQ leaving us with a 4-3 match but worked hard to pull me back in. Harada and Yoshioka have incredible chemistry, Ogawa brings that ratbag energy, Junta and Ohara brought the babyface fire and Kotoge/Hayata managed to stay out of the way while their cooler teammates did cool poo poo (also Susumu was there). Just a fun time all round with a very tense final fall.

I'm picky about giving MOTYC nods, but I'll give an HM for each of these:

GLEAT [G PROWRESTLING Ver. 1] - 7/25/21
-Atsuki Aoyagi & Yu Iizuka vs. Jun Masaoka & Takanori Ito
-CIMA vs. Issei Onitsuka
-El Lindaman & Soma Watanabe vs. Hayato Tamura & Ryuichi Kawakami

Really high on Yu Iizuka at the moment as a crossover talent between GLEAT's styles, and I continue to be amazed at El Lindaman's drastic improvement since his DG days. CIMA's as good as ever.

NOAH Kongo Box Office DIAMOND4 Kongo vs NOAH
MOTYC
Katsuhiko Nakajima vs Kaito Kiyomiya
- Holy poo poo, I was not expecting them to go nearly this hard for a Produce show, especially a month out from the N-1. These two mad lads battered the absolute poo poo out of each other. Watch this match it ruled, Kaito is really bringing the aggresion since Nosawa brained him with that chair

HM
Tadasuke vs Kinya Okada
- My favourite beefy kicklad going up against Kongoh's resident dirtbag. I assumed Okada was going heavyweight when his rookie period was over but he had an easy chemistry with Tadasuke I'd definitely like to see more of in the coming years

Kenoh vs Masa Kitamiya
- A great match hampered only because it immidiately followed Katsu/Kaito. Kenoh sold the legwork really well and it really had me thinking he was going to lose the main event on his own show to his former underling, great stuff all round, much love for that pissy kickboy

Nth'ing this.

That opening match was probably the best multi-man tag AEW has done yet. It also made me believe 100% that Hangman was going to beat Kenny Omega AND the Young Bucks even though that really wouldn't make any logical sense.
