Will LU come off the poll after this month since it's dead now?

Yep, unless it gets renewed and new episodes start airing, this is the end for LU.

No it won't. Won't be for me either since Omega still isn't going to be on the list.

It's still very close with Okada holding an incredibly narrow lead and Pentagon Dark juuuust sliding into second place over Chuckie T. This could still go any number of ways.

It was as close as it has ever been, but despite extremely strong challenges from Pentagon Dark, Chuck Taylor and even Viral Meningitis - it was Kazuchika Okada who won the Champ of the Month poll for October of 2017. That marks 7 of 10 months this year that Okada has been victorious - though just like last month his win is perhaps down to the opposition vote being split, which itself only speaks well for the quality of wrestling going on this year.

Uglier on the inside.

So, Okada has now tied himself for Most Months Won in One Year at 7, and now has the Longest Streak of Wins at 5, passing AJ, Bryan, Kane, Punk and himself who were tied at 4.

That might be it for him this year, we'll see what happens in November but I suspect he's largely going to take a backseat to stuff like the Young Lions Cup and World Tag League and take it easy to build up for Wrestle Kingdom, and he might drop off the poll as a result.

He’s won months with no title defenses.

As someone who voted for Pentagon, I ain't even mad. Okada deserves it.

Aphrodite posted:

Yeah but usually he's still heavily involved in some storyline directly impacting the title. We'll see how November and December go, but it's possible that he may do nothing more than be involved in some 6 or 8 man tags on the undercard of shows and have little to no interaction with Naito during that period.

We'll see!

Okada probably needs a break after this run but it's gonna be odd not being able to vote for him in 2018.

But than we have Naitooooooooo

Miz also won 4 in a row, they were just not in the same calendar year (November '10 to February '11)

If you're not dividing streaks by calendar year, Okada already has the longest streak at 6, from October 2013 to March 2014. The next longest streak looks like Daniel Bryan from December 2011 to March 12. In order to break his own record of 6 months, Okada would have to win this month and next month, which is unlikely(though not impossible).

Multiple-year streaks absolutely should be counted. Month-to-month voting has nothing to do with calendar year.

can you either change the October 2015 winner from a no symbol to a giant "No" or change the things in the background of September 2015 to no symbols? this is very triggering to me, they should look the same.

and could you also change the 2015 champion of the year to someone less embarrassing, perhaps The Miz

Jerry Lawler did a lot of hard work getting Miz over in that run, it is all a credit to him.

That was early 2011, where Miz (rightly) won CotM coming off of securing 2010 CotY

Their TLC match was his first title defense in 2010. The Morrison match I believe was very early in 2011. The February Lawler match was still good, but the TLC match was a much needed hot singles match to start his reign.

Dang, I didn't realize how long that was. That's pretty cool.
