WMOTYC: Roman Reigns vs. Samoa Joe, WWE Backlash 5/6/18

I'll nominate it. Nothing but restholds and it was a match that hurt both participants more than not having a match at all.

e: Ha, beaten. Consider this an Nth then :v:

Personally I'd say it was an HM, felt like it had a few more minutes left in it. On the flip side, they did so much crazy poo poo maybe their bodies literally didn't have a few more minutes left in them.

Agreeing with HM. But holy poo poo :stare:

MOTYC: Kota Ibushi vs. Tomohiro Ishii - G1 Climax Night 10 - 07/28

Holy gently caress Ishii. Holy gently caress Ibushi. Holy gently caress both those guys.

Am I crazy for thinking there was too much no-selling of big moves in this match? Don't get me wrong -- I just started watching NJPW right before G1 and am completely sold on Ishii. But Ibushi standing up out of big suplexes just took away from the match for me :shrug:

The last match was unreal.

Agreeing with this as well (haven't watched Juice/Goto yet). But HOLY poo poo Omega/Ibushi. I was legit doing :aaa: at some of the spots in that match.

Would it be possible to organize the running list by promotion? Not the end of the world if not - I just signed up for NJPW's streaming for G1 and it'd be nice to go back and watch the MOTYCs.

I think after this year I need to revamp how this runs pretty heavily. Mostly because of the very good "problem" that the quality of wrestling the last 2-3 years has exploded and the lists are getting really unwieldy under the current system.

No worries - just didn't know if you kept them on a spreadsheet or something where it would be possible to do it.

MOTYC: Hiroshi Tanahashi vs. Kota Ibushi - G1 Climax 2018 Final

This deserves to be on the list for the strike exchange alone... then there was the moonsault double-knees :stare:

AND HOLY poo poo THIS :stare: Such an incredible loving match. Worth every penny I spent on a NJPW World sub.

That match loving sucked. I want my time back.

Raskolnikov38 posted:

WMOTY: braun/roman HIAC

Agreeing with both of these.

And the MOTYC nod I gave for Rollins/Ambrose vs. Ziggler/McIntyre was in large part to it being one of - if not the - best main-roster matches this year.

Yep. Could have done without the Rousey interference, but it makes sense.
