So, I was thinking and thought this would be a good idea. You can nominate any match you believe was worthy of a nomination from this year. Keep on nominating matches as new shows are seen.

Keep on updating this thread throughout the year, and at the end of the year, we will vote on which match we believe was MOTY.

I will keep on editing this thread with your nominations.

Wasn't that in 2007?

[Marketh.]

Yeah, but the PPV was shown in January. That's why I wasn't sure if it counted or not.

AAA - Zorro vs Abismo Negro vs Mr Niebla vs Alan Stone - Rey De Reyes Finals
Awesome brawling between Abismo and Nielbla made you really feel the hate between the two and it spilled out all over the arena and was bloody and violent to the point where neither man cared about the win and only wanted to punish the other. Meanwhile you have Alan playing a great underdog against Zorro.

CMLL - Perro Agauyo Jr vs Hector Garza - Hair vs Hair Match
Really good emotional, dramatic match with lots of good brawling and such. Got really dramatic and emotional towards the end when Hector's father and Perro'd faction get involved.

NJPW - Masato Tanaka vs Koji Kanemoto
Part of the awesome Z1 vs NJ fued. Starts of with lots of good brawling thoughout the crowd and really escalates into quite the battle. Lots of great near falls, Kanemoto's great legwork and Tanaka's selling makes the final five minutes or so really tense and epic.

ROH - Nigel McGuiness vs Austin Aries - Rising Above
Nigel heels it up to fuck and the match really escalates to epic proportions. Lots of great moments throughout like Aries's epic dive which bloodys Nigel badly, Nigel top rope lariat. Great arm work by Nigel and an awesome finish.

WWE - Jeff Hardy vs Umaga - Cage Match
Exactly what you expect from these two, it was hard hitting, brutal and dramatic. Really good underdog match with an awesome atmosphere.

WWE - Ric Flair vs Shawn Michaels - Wrestlemania
My pick so far. The emotion was off the page, but everything else was so good. The constant teases and near falls and submissions, all the throw backs to Flair's career, Michaels almost breaking his back to keep Naitch down. One of the greatest finishes ever.

WWE - Randy Orton vs HHH vs John Cena vs JBL- Backlash
JBL's great heel work, awesome eliminations, and epic encounter between HHH and Orton with great selling, smart offence and a climactic finish make this a good contender.

Alright, good nominations everyone.

But if somethings already been nominated, you don't have to nominate it again. It will be added to the list.

[Paulzo]

I was actually thinking about suggesting a thread kinda like this yesterday, funnily enough.

Erik Stevens vs. Roderick Strong - FIP "Redefined"

Pretty much furthered my view that these two can do no wrong together. Brutal, well worked, intense and just great stuff all round. Probably my favourite match so far this year with Kanemoto/Tanaka coming in at #2.

Edit -

Forgot to mention:

Mistuharu Misawa vs. Takeshi Morishima - GHC Heavyweight Title Match (NOAH)

Simple storytelling done really effectively. Great stuff.
