MOTYC: Kazuchika Okada vs. Minoru Suzuki, NJPW The New Beginning in Sapporo, 02/05

Oh my God. Oh my God. Incredible. Absolutely incredible.

I'm finally watching this with the Japanese commentary and I like it more than Okada/Omega by a pretty wide margin.

idk if you'd count flashy_mcflash's post as thirding my nomination but yeah, I counted four there

You can absolutely count it as a third. I don't think there's been a match I've rewatched so much in whole or in part, in recent memory.

Can commentary turn a pretty average match into a WMOTY?

WMOTYC: Knockouts #1 Contender Gauntlet, Impact 04/07/17

The whole thing isn't online yet but the two minutes of it they put online are by far the best two minutes of the match

HM: Kushida/Juice vs Hiromu/Naito, 05/03, Dontaku

This match was so fun and I can see myself rewatching it a bunch of times. Just loving wild from bell to bell.

The clusterfuck wasn't even the worst match on the card. That'd go to the Pepper Parks/Cherry Bomb match.

that match fuckin owned what the hell

I can't think of anything on the card that was worse. I mean it was fine but everything on the rest of the show was much better to me. It sure as heck wasn't better than the Clusterfuck.

I think the Abyss vs Grado Monster's Ball match on the same card would get my nomination for WMOTY over either of those. It was abysmal, overbooked, and they screwed up the finish.

I just watched BUSHI/Fale and it was really bad, but I can't give it a vote over anything else that's been nominated.
