Benne posted:Really everyone is just dancing around the fact that they used to love Randy Orton and are kinda embarrassed of it now I still like Randy I loved "get well Randy", I very mush enjoyed Randy "the legend killer", I thought his feud with Christian where they swapped the title was top notch, and I have always loved his "give no fucks" attitude. Also it was cool when he was told to show more babyface fire, so he did a jumping jack just to be an arsehole about it.

Is AJPW going to be on future polls? There's a Kensuke Sasaki vs. Satoshi Kojima Defense in March 2008

Nakamura won the IWGP belt at the '08 Dome show. Dude might as well have been a totally different person back then with how much he would change.

There's a Kensuke Sasaki vs. Satoshi Kojima Defense in March 2008 The first appearance of the AJPW Champion in any poll didn't come until the Champ of the Year Poll at the end of 2008. Same deal with the Open the Dream Gate Championship and the IWGP Championship*, so neither of those would be included in February and March polls. The GHC Championship did make its first appearance in a poll in the very first 2008 poll (which was in April) however! * Kurt Angle's fake IWGP Championship also appeared in the Champ of the Year Poll at the end of 2008. I'd forgotten all about that. That was... not a good time for Kurt Angle...

It just occured to me that the only champions on this list who haven't retired are Orton and Chavo.

Man Morishima ruled, he was so great. It would have taken the greatest professional wrestler in the world at the time to beat him, surpass him, and become the greatest ROH Champion of all time..... and Nigel did

Ordering in all the lovely DVDs by mail and getting my ears blasted by the peaked audio on the dvd menu music, shows always starting with interleaved video of Larry Sweeney cackling madly while Bobby Dempsey tried to workout, culminating in some of the most incredible main events of all time. Good loving times, great loving memories

When did ROH on HDnet take place? Bootlegging satellite tv was big back then and I would get what seemed like random episodes for free via stealing Fight Network, first time I ever actually watched a wrestling show I remember three things: Nigel, Danielson, and the crowd throwing streamers and/or toilet paper roughly 8 times an episode

And with that, Nigel McGuinness wins January.              We will reconvene at the beginning of the next month to judge for February, and ooh boy is that an action packed month!
