Much worse than anything in Lacey Evans/Nattie series. At least they can run the ropes and throw strikes.

There was nothing wrong with it, it was just a standard squash. Sure Bates looked dreadful but she's basically a glorified jobber

If he felt it was a WMOTYC then he's completely within reason to post a nomination just like anybody else in the thread, this is a thread based entirely on personal opinions.

Leva vs. Nyla was not good, and I would even agree with Rovert that it was probably the worst AEW match to date, but I wouldn't put it as worst of the year.

I can't in good conscious call Bates/Rose a wmoty when the last time I watched WWE their average women's match was like Cameron vs. Aksana, and this was no way close to that.

nth the first, as loathe as I am to give Elgin props. The finish was weird and overdrawn but it was a good strong style-y match.

Going to HM the second. Would have maybe been a MOTYC for me if the right person won, but doing the ~swerve~ finish just made me disappointed.

no idea who these guys are but i got bored waiting for AEW to come on and watched this. the lads tore it up! i will give it the HM. would probably be a MOTYC if i had any context for what was going on. even i get that blondie is a prick and black hair is the good one

I salute you for watching this. So, some context, blondie is Kento Miyahara who is the AJPW Triple Crown champ, which as of today he's held for 1 year and 3 days. He's the ace of the company and he knows it, so like you said he's a smug prick. The other guy is Nomura, he's only 25 and is the future of the company. He went to the final of the big AJPW tournament, Champion Carnival this year and generally it's been a break through year for him. So he's the underdog but he's getting closer to Kento each time they face each other.

I'm in the camp of the battle royal part and the absolute insanity of the final two averages out to HM.

yo what if a royal rumble but with cool poo poo instead of bullshit time wasting? also everybody is dressed in stylish and outrageous costumes? what if it turned into a singles match between a mad max smegma crazy dressed for the winter and a dinosaur at the end? and they did a load of incredibly reckless spots?

yeah this was good HM

gently caress :yeah:

I'm not 100% sure how to recommend matches sometimes beyond "this match is good, it is very exciting." I'm glad you took a shot at it. Miyahara is really great and Nomura is going to be great once he's a little more experienced. He kind of reminds me of Sanada in that he's a great wrestler, but isn't the best at showing charisma just yet.

MOTYC: Jake Lee vs. Kento Miyahara, AJPW Royal Road (9/23)

HM: Jake Lee vs. Suwama, AJPW Royal Road (9/14)
HM: Jiro Kuroshio vs. Kento Miyahara, AJPW Royal Road (9/18)
HM: Mistico vs. Sanson, CMLL 8/4
HM: David Starr vs. Tomohiro Ishii, RevPro Live in New York (4/5)
HM: Kyle Fletcher & Mark Davis vs. SHO & YOH, RevPro Live in New York (4/5)
HM: Shane Taylor vs. Jeff Cobb, RoH 17th Anniversary Show (3/15)

One that inspired me in particular in that block is Taylor vs. Cobb. This is a really fun hoss off. Not as great as an Ishii hossing, but I think that you get a better idea of what Jeff Cobb can be in the best of times. Kind of unexpectedly: Shane Taylor is loving great in this! He's easily better than anything else I've seen him in this year.
