Look, it's a loving load of nonsense. There's far too much Dieno being Dieno. BUT. They do a wrestling match on a train & I will never not love that. Also this gets an extra ¼* for the outfit Naya turned up in.

I don't expect this to get enough votes to warrant it going through but:

WMOTYC: Becky Lynch/Lita vs Dakota Kai/Iyo Sky, WWE RAW 2/27/23

Lita looked absolute loving dogshit in the ring and the finish made Iyo look like the biggest loving loser of 2023. All to put over Becky, Lita, and Trish. And Lita and Trish don't need to be going over younger talents like this. Especially if the endgame is them putting over Ronda/Shayna. I know on the Fightful review, SRS was absolutely floored at how bad Lita looked and how bad the finish was. Like astounded that WWE thought that finish was a great idea.

Lita was never particularly good outside of high-risk poo poo and she's retired and late 40s which is beyond the point everyone starts slowing down. I've not seen any clips yet but I can totally believe she'd not be doing well in there

Yeah here is the clip of the finish. Its incredibly sad. One comparison I saw is that Lita was moving like a sloth with broken legs in there.

https://streamlala.com/UMuVI/

That's not even mentioning she botched every single move she did that wasn't the moonsault. And almost necked Iyo during one of her moves. Its easily going to be one of the worst matches of 2023 and its baffling how people think it was just ring rust.

If possible, could we have some kind of HM section in the OP for matches that receive only one or two votes? I feel like there's a bunch of good matches I see nominated from Impact, DDT, Stardom etc that don't receive enough viewers and don't receive enough votes, and thus people might miss them.

I know this thread is recommending matches based on votes, but I use it to watch whatever is recommended.

These lists get REALLY long and the number of votes changing means I often have to edit at least two of them at a time just to account for a single new vote, so adding ANOTHER list to that would be adding another complicating factor into the mix that I don't know I really have the time for. I will attempt to post every couple of months or so lists of matches close to MOTY and WMOTY status, and include some that are close to HM status as well if I can, to help get attention on matches that haven't quite gotten enough votes.
