He's probably the only realistic alternative over the course of the decade. Depends what we're calling the decade, 2010-2019 or 2011-2020, because Okada's 2020 was dogshit.

my friend, are you asking if the 2010s includes the year 2020

The 2010s include 2020 because there is no year zero. So every decade is 1 - 10 and not 0 - 9

tbh I'd say Takashi Sugiura is up there as well for best of the last decade, but I know for a fact that I'm alone in that opinion

I love Sugiura now, but shamefully i've not seen enough of him from the 2010s to comment

No, I think either is valid depending upon perspective, was just asking for the sake of the conversation which to use.

Yeah, thats technically true, but common use is 0 - 9.

There is no year 0 so you cannot count any years ending in 0. That's why Okada took it easy last year.

That is canon as it erases Triple H's 2000 too.

If there's no year 0 then what was Tekno Team 2000?

1 BCE functions as a year zero, so I'm confident in saying that the 2010s started in 2010 and ended in 2019

The second decade of the 21st century includes 2020, but that's not how "the 2010s" is commonly used

Part of me wants to check f or context. Another part wants to just die thinking he got bitten by a wild Cody Rhodes or something and can't live with the fact.

I am so naive that when I heard this news I just thought "oh thats kind of them" and then didn't give it a single second thought. I had no idea it would cause such rage over just a nice thing.
