voted Mr. Selfish Shingo Takagi. His amazing match versus Don Fujii is available here. His defense early 11/1 morning against Masaaki Mochizuki (the show started on 10/31 PDT time) should also deserve consideration. Everyone should be all aboard a self-reliant and brutal future*. All Aboard Shingo Takagi. sticklefifer posted:We had a DG champ last year, so you never know. I can retire from the forums knowing I did my life's work. * until Akira Tozawa beats him next month and the most charismatic person in wrestling finally gets his crown jewel.

Voted for Seth Rollins because he beat The Big Red Monster, The Demon Kane (through hellfire and brimstone) at the Hell in a Cell WWE Network Event and remained the world's WWE Heavyweight Champion.

I have reconsidered and wish to change my vote to Shingo Takagi. Jay is perfect but that match with Fujii was the best match I saw all month.

Jerusalem, does Shingo Takagi's defense against Mochizuki count for October or November. I ask since I think it was still 10/31 on the West Coast when the show started in Osaka.

I consider it a November match and I'll talk it up when it comes to the November poll, but for a borderline case like that just make your own call

I labeled it November in the MOTY thread because it was evening on November 1st in Japan. PSP better loving remember Shingo next month though because that match was nuts.

Shingo's probably got a decent shot next month. No Takeover so fewer people will (probably) have their underwear twisted about NXT not being on the poll, Seth will be in the Survivor Series match rather than having a title defense, ROH is still kind of in a holding pattern until Final Battle and that's in December. If Okada and Nakamura don't have blowaway matches at Power Struggle I think Takagi could get enough support.

I like Bayley just fine and her success has been the most feel-good thing associated with WWE since WM30, but I really don't get the fervor around her specifically in these threads. There were a few NXT protest votes before, but nothing like the none of the above option completely running away with the poll. Why didn't this happen when Sasha was women's champ, or when Sami won the belt in a legitimately amazing match with a great build?

I don't care for your Bayley discussion, I voted "none" because all the champs of the promotions I watch sucked this month.

Why didn't this happen when Sasha was women's champ, or when Sami won the belt in a legitimately amazing match with a great build? I think it's at least partially because HHH has been really public about saying "it's not developmental anymore, it's a brand" in the past few months. A brand owned by WWE, yes, but considered a separate promotion now with separate rosters and separate booking, similar to NOAH/NJPW. Bayley also main evented the first ever PPV headlined by a women's title as champion as well, so it's not exactly outlandish.

There were a few NXT protest votes before, but nothing like the none of the above option completely running away with the poll. Why didn't this happen when Sasha was women's champ, or when Sami won the belt in a legitimately amazing match with a great build? I say this with all sincerity - if I thought the NXT brand was more than just a developmental then I would put both Finn Balor and Bayley into the poll and I would vote for Bayley in a second. Her rise to the top and first successful defense of the belt were amazing, inspiring feelgood moments and as a character and a performer she gets me more invested in what she doing than basically any other Champion around at the moment (WHEN Okada beats Tanahashi in January that will probably change). But NXT is still a developmental, despite the rather nice lipservice that Triple H pays to it being a separate brand. They're making baby-steps in that direction but they're not there yet, and a big part of that is that except for where big stars have negotiated their own contracts, most of the roster are still on developmental contracts and - as far as I know - not getting anything in the way of merchandise or house percentages (correct me if I'm wrong somebody). The reason why is because they're still considered trainees, learning the business and developing into become main roster talent. The fact that NXT is far and away the best thing WWE is actually producing right now is a problem for WWE to fix, but it's not yet a distinct brand in its own right. God I wish it was, because I'd like to vote for Bayley too.

Also, if we establish the NXT Women's Championship as eligible for this vote shouldn't the Divas title go on there as well? Not that anyone would vote for it, but nobody voted for the NWA titles when those were eligible choices either. I guess you could make the IWGP Intercontinental argument that the NXT Women's title main evented a 'PPV' when the Divas title would never do that in a million years, but I dunno. That happened once and with Bayley the only one of the Four Horsewomen left in NXT I suspect it'll be a pretty long time before it happens again.

I think it has a lot to do with a lack of other championship reigns really being good/great right now, especially since a portion of the subforum only watches WWE

I voted none of the above not because wishing Bayley was on it, I voted none of the above as none of the champions had even an average month this month. It was a mediocre month for everyone listed regarding the championships.
