Welcome to the inaugural Wrestler of the Month thread. The wrestler picked this month is Christian Cage, the best wrestler ever. Wikipedia has more on his long illustrious career. He is a multi time world champion across 2 promotions and a pioneer of tag team wrestling, winning multiple world tag team championships. He is currently the AEW TNT Champion and father figure to all. Here are a few tasty matches that Ive picked presented in chronological order

https://www.dailymotion.com/video/xz53i8
WWF SummerSlam 2000 TLC 1 Edge and Christian vs The Dudley Boyz vs The Hardy Boyz
this match is a classic and upped the level of insanity you could do in a wwf match up several notches. It also cemented the 3 teams as stars

https://youtu.be/EyNL4vl-lu0?si=8wsXC8U7k6dzYTq8&t=9137
TNA Destination X 2007 Christian Cage vs Samoa Joe
Samoa Joe has been waiting 2 years for a chance a the nwa championship but hes matched up against Christian Cage. Christians best friend and differnce maker Tyson Tomko is absent. Peak Samoa Joe always a good watch.

https://www.dailymotion.com/video/x8mrwh7
WWE Over The Limit 2011 Christian vs Randy Orton.
these two have extremely good chemistry. This is their second match after Randy got the shock win and the championship on Smackdown a few weeks ago. There is lots of good counters and the crowd is very hot.

Do you like Christian? Are you a peep like me or do you want a blue dot plastered on his face. Post your thoughts, pictures, videos, anything.

I was never into him during his WWE run, but he's been so good at AEW. We needed a heel at his level with MJF and Jericho currently being faces.

Christian has always reeked of awesomeness. Whether a vampire, a goggle-wearing goof, a whiny petulant little brother, or a legitimate world champion that you can trust to carry your brand, he’s a dude that deserves his flowers. Dad of the Year every year.

Classic Edge & Christian Christian is my favorite Christian (also AT LAST YOU’RE ON YOUR OWN Christian)

Christian is an amazing heel but I really loved his babyface run in WWECW as a fighting champion during the dying days of that third brand. Still hilarious that the final WWECW Champion was Ezekiel Jackson. It's a real tragedy because Big Zeke ain't got no cuts.

Never forget that Christian main evented the biggest PPV in AEW history.

Would you be my new best friends?

The Christian/Orton feud was one of those few times that Orton seemed actually invested in what he was doing, and I loved how each time they fought they'd each adapted to the other to avoid the mistakes that cost them previously.

Also was AJ Styles the first wrestler that Christian became a surrogate dad to (albeit a dad that AJ Styles wanted to gently caress)?

Honestly couldn't stand him in any iteration of his career, none of it clicked for me. I hated the TNA stuff, was always weirded out about how oddly colored yellow(?) his skin was when he came back to the Fed around '09 (did he have jaundice or just a bad spray tan?). Serious Xpac heat with me, I can't explain it.

His AEW debut was fine, I guess, but his match with Omega really opened my eyes and since his black turtleneck dead father gimmick hit, he's been incredible.

Part of Christian's current gimmick is also flagrant lies about his reign. At the scrum after he beat Darby he also mentioned beating Darby 2-0 for pinfalls, and counted his reign as starting when Luchasaurus got the belt. So I just assume this is another one.

At least I don't dance with them, right?

All Out 2021 still has the highest PPV buys, and was main evented by Christian/Omega.

Yes, i agree and I think christian has the most great theme songs. The Brood Theme, 1st Solo theme, Both versions of Just Close Your Eyes, Dale Olivers crazy good Evanesence rip off and the current Micky version.
