I wonder if every WWE Raw match by default should just go into the WMOTY column unless something happens to make it not monumentally terrible

At least Braun vs Bray were a month apart, they did the same main event two weeks in a row and it was hot dogshit both times.

Seems they are pushing Kenoh down a shoot style road at present, first he faced Sakuraba last month, here he is against Murakami. It's a fairly quick match, intense striking, submission attempts I'm really digging it.

Ice Ribbon #1092
Random Draw Tag Match
Ibuki Hoshi & Suzu Suzuki vs Sareee & Tsukasa Fujimoto

Ice Ribbon seem to do this thing occasionally where they announce the competitors in a tag match but don't announce partners until they do a random draw just before the match begins. This is really good, helped by the fact that ¾ of the competitors (Sareee, Suzu Suzuki & Tsukasa Fujimoto) are great. At least worth watching as part of the Sareee retirement tour before she moves to a strange cult in Florida.

MOTYC: Saori Anou vs. Hibiscus Mii - Colega Pro Wrestling Stars Night (1/28)
HM: #STRONGHEARTS (CIMA & T-Hawk) vs. Keiichi Sato & Alejandro - Colega Pro Wrestling Stars Night (1/28)


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P9cpNbd3gjY&t=2495s
(the matches are one after the other but you'll need to skip ahead ~5 minutes unless you want to watch ring cleaning)

I'm going to keep evangelizing for this promotion because it's the most fun I've had watching pro wrestling in ages and it's keeping me tuning in despite running six days a week. Saori Anou is one of the best wrestlers in the whole world. Her fluidity and flexibility are almost super human and her selling is among the best out there. Hibiscus Mii is so great as a powerhouse bully that I think she's the biggest wrestler in Colega's women's division despite being even shorter than Ancham. This match is playing off tension between the two that has been simmering since the first Colega show and Anou's last before returning to Tokyo and rules throughout, but the absolute frenetic pace they take at the end as they play off their desperation to get the victory after the three minutes remaining call is incredible and pushes it into being one of my favourite matches of the year. Anou hits a bridging straitjacket suplex into a submission hold that I will vote 2021 move of the year if she keeps doing it. I hope Anou heads back to Osaka for more Colega sooner than later (even if it means I won't get to see her in person quite so often).

The main event is another fun #STRONGHEARTS match where CIMA gets to show off that he is one of the most charismatic people in all of wrestling.

Also worth noting that Colega own their own venue and allow fans to chant and boo (and they boo quite frequently) so if you're missing live puro with crowd noise then Colega is the show to watch.

HM: Shigehiro Irie vs. Tsubasa - Colega Pro Wrestling Saturday Night Rising Stars Grand Opening (1/23)

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l-Mp1wfB_D8&t=3062s

Could really nominate any match from this show but this was probably the best. Colega has come out of nowhere to run daily shows and it's honestly one of the highlights of my day right now. The community is great and the booking is really well done. It's showcasing a bunch of Land's End and Osaka wrestlers I'd never seen before and they're all shining. I'd strongly recommend at least watching the Saturday shows to anyone because they're supposed to be the major ones.

2nd. It's cool getting to see old OPW guys like Billy Ken Kid and TSUBASA. Irie rules obviously.

2nd this as a very good match. Definitely didn't resonate with the womens match though, especially as far too much of it happened outside the ring for a hardcam only show. It was still good, but a little shy of HM for me.
