I'm not making a fucking QCS thread for this but seriously can we take a harder stance on Kiwifarms freaks like this guy, Jesus Christ seriously, you used to be better at knocking these creeps down. I guess ADTRW mods aren't responsible like GBS mods are.

Current nominations through the first six months of the year:

You left out Zoya vs Liberty Belle, which got enough nominations.

A) They showed the whole match
B) It first aired in 2017
C) There was a solid story behind it involving the two wrestlers that can be appreciated based on the buildup.
D) The wrestling was competent enough that it, plus the story elevates it to HM.

I don't see why you would leave it out?

e: also Kairi/Mayu got at least 3 votes for HM.

So's Raw, so's Smackdown, so's LU, so's Impact.

The match had better production values than anything we've seen in Raw and Smackdown, a better story than most of the stuff on most of those shows, and was inoffensive enough that I justify it being an HM. I'd see the issue if I nominated it a MOTYC but it wasn't good enough of a match to justify that so

Honestly the big annoyance to me is that Mayu/Kairi wasn't counted as a HM considering it got 3 votes for that, and with all the arguing about GLOW covering it up, I went and did legwork to show the three nominations for HM so J-Ru can't ignore this.

Real good match, with great selling and emotion. It had a few low points, but otherwise was real solid match. Match title is also a link. :ssh:

Iwatani/Hojo was better but I really like Shirai/Storm, so I figure it deserves a nod too.

(World of Stardom is a really good value; 750 Yen a month for all these matches, english subtitled promos, and specials like The yearly janken tournament.)

Because TNA and Lucha Underground are actual wrestling promotions, who run shows and tapings you can attend.
