SatoshiMiwa posted:This year has seen so much good wrestling across the world that matches that would normally be top 5 of the year might not even make a best match list. Yeah, I can think of a handful of matches that would normally be duking it out for the number one spot that are currently struggling to make it into the top 3 (all of which feature Okada, two of which feature Omega) because holy poo poo there have been some amazing matches this year.

G1 Climax 30/07 HM: Kazuchika Okada vs. Juice Robinson HM: Michael Elgin vs. SANADA Worst Moment of the Year: Omega selling Kojima's chops. Turned a great match into a stupid, goofy shitshow. 25 seconds into this video. I love Kenny but this was the worst of the worst of his worst. Most Touching Moment of the Year: Hiromu sending the spirit of  off to the sky.

I will give the HM to Juice/Okada Wasn't Kenny referencing the Big Daddy Yum Yum sell of those chops that got him into contention for most improved of the year in whatever year that happened?

I haven't watched the last two nights of G1 due to time issues. I know I should see Ishii vs Naito and Juice vs Okada. Are there any others I should seek out when I have time?

In a shocking and unexpected turn of events, I'm gonna go ahead and put in a HM Nomination for Hiroshi Tanahashi vs Kota Ibushi at G1 Climax Night 11. Turns out those two are very good wrestlers!

Foul Fowl posted:G1 Climax 30/07 get this: Kojima's chops loving suck and ruin every match he does them in. There are only two acceptable ways to sell those weak lovely chops and it's the Kenny/Big Daddy Yum Yum method or completely ignoring them. A fly could believably no-sell Koji's chops.

Venomous posted:HM: John Cena vs. Shinsuke Nakamura, WWE Smackdown Live, 1/8 seconding this one, insane Ibushi esque bump from Cena and Nak won clean with one finisher after kicking out of one of Cena's and totally no-selling the other one. I'm so mad about Koji's chops, still. They're my most hated move in wrestling. That poo poo pulls me out of a match faster than anything Jim Cornette has ever complained about.

not gonna hm or whatever cuz it ain't gonna get any seconds but You Should Watch: Akira Tozawa vs Ariya Daivari, 205 Live, 8/1 just a real solid, if heatless, match to get you excited for the best match on the Summerslam card assuming you count the preshow

I guess I personally felt like cena/nakamura was barely anything but a promising look at a bigger match somewhere down the line. Half commercial break, half finishing stretch, and the right guy went over

Venomous posted:HM: Chad Gable vs. Rusev, WWE Smackdown Live, 1/8 nth this one. I don't think Cena/Nakamura was quite there, but Gable/Rusev was a drat fine match that, in my opinion, got both guys over. Gable could've waited a few more seconds before tapping but what are ya gonna do?

Seeing as this is the Match Recommendation Thread, my personal favorite match of last year and probably the single best match I've ever witnessed with my own eyes was finally uploaded to YouTube (they wanted to make a DVD of the event but I guess that's not happening) and I just REALLY want to recommend people watch it if you have the time: Valentine (c) vs King Kong Karhula, Talvisota X, 2016 https://youtu.be/Lzqmnz7tYo8
