E: Moving this to next week because that way it'll actually be the final show of the year. But also everyone is watching Final Battle for some reason. What a world to live in that people suddenly care about ROH. Week 180: YEAR OF THE BEAST 2022  'tis time for our final PPV of the year! I'll probably also stop updating the thread after this? Maybe? I've yet to decide. I think I went through the same thing last year. I'd still be doing the shows but at this point this thread is little more than a repository for results. Anyway, here's the card of match! #1 Seven Deadly Pins Seven People vs. Each Other vs. Mina Park (c) #2 Tag Team Match* K+M vs. Mr. Shakedown and Undeddie #3 Singles Match Hayley Simmons vs. Johnny Fuckyou #4 New Year's Blast Vacation Skeleton vs. Duckbaby vs. Midas vs. ...

But finally, here it is. The awards and some numbers as well as words to accompany them. Let's just get into the awards first, all right? Best PPV 3. JUDGEMENT NIGHT IV All right, our "biggest show of the year" in a weird way. It was never meant to be this but that's what it ended up being. At least in terms of how we build for it. The Gorefest always happens here which was one of my MOTY contenders. And it's kind of funny that, spoilers, none of you voted for that as your MOTY. Ah well. The biggest thing that happened on the PPV was probably Goat-Man returning. Though, that's more something for really long time viewers as he was only a ref for the first year and a half and I guess even fewer people probably remember that he wrestled in LPFWA and kind of organically became a main eventer and later had turned face in a double turn match against Link (the Goron, not the Hero of Time) of all people. Of course, Link has not been seen since. This is not a tease or anything. He was signed up by someone who has not come back for OHPW, not that that would stop me from using him since he's not an original character (I've adopted Mr. Shakedown in the same way as "my own" character" though since he's not original I don't really handle him that way) Well, anyway, this has devolved into rambling, on with the show. 2. LIFE IS A BEACH This show was a much needed change of pace for myself. I was ready to just end OHPW at some point in the near future (and eventually it has to happen, even if I still have fun with it, this has been going for way too long) but I haven't had as much fun with a PPV like this in a long time before that. The literal change of scenery helped set the vibe as a more casual affair. We saw the return of Iggy being harassed backstage by people about matches and other things had some gimmicky matches. The "formula" was broken. Not like we never do this but normally the 7DP is at the beginning of the card, for example, here it was the midpoint of the show. 1. skeleton wars 4 Ummm... I think there were skeletons here? Let me look at the card. Yeah. I think that was the main reason this show was successful. I legit can't see anything else that stood out looking at the show. I guess as something to note it was the match where Suzan Blades reclaimed the Hellweight Title for the first time since she lost it in our first year. Her opponent was a three-time champ at the time. Oh yeah, Kayu murdered Majin Bob Sapp. That was great too. Grace Thoruson beat Chad, The Virgin, Video Game Dunkey and Dicky P in a match? I don't remember that either. drat. Ah, well, it's skeleton wars 4 baybee, your top PPV of 2022. I didn't see skeleton wars 4 coming. I thought it would either be LIFE IS A BEACH, JUDGEMENT NIGHT IV or maybe even YEAR OF THE BEAST 2022. The latter mainly due to recency bias. It was a good show, though, if I say so myself. It was at least one of the ones I had the most fun calling. Despite our old friend Discord Audio problems returning in a big way. The only PPV that didn't get a vote was HELLFIRE 2022, which is funny because of the result of the two next categories, both of which started or took place at that PPV. Best Storyline 3. Formation of the new Third Street Sinners and the return of The Majestic Goat-Man If you "only" started watching my stuff some time in the last... three years? This would mean nothing to you. Just the debut of a new character getting more screen time than other debuts. But what this really was was a thing we meant to do shortly after the Bunny Title turned into the Pokeymanz Title. In case you forgot: Majestic Goat-Man was the referee for Bunny Title matches out of a debt to the cosmic bunnies who fixed his neck after it was broken by Link (Goron, not Hylian) at the final LPFWA PPV. The imminent return angle kind of fell to the side for a long time. Then I started booking Goat-Monster again and decided it was time. As for who the new Sinners would be? Well, that was more of a thing I wanted to do myself and wasn't really necessary for a return. But the people who ended up in it were more or less random. Bobson was in because he faced Goat-Man. We figured Kelsey should be in too which would take her out of the Gorefest. But I didn't want to have Maya not be a part of it in that case. NYG was in because I had no idea what to do with him anymore but like the character enough that I want to keep using him. His original feud against Freddie concluded in the least interesting way possible (Thanks, RNG, Freddie should have won that one in an ideal world, but alas. Also big shoutouts to me letting people just turn matches into hardcore matches which due to technical limitations made the story harder to follow.) In the end, I think the debut was cool. I knew I didn't want Goat-Man and Goat-Monster to interact in that match, which required me to have Goat-Monster just leave at the end since he was tagged in at the end. I wish he or Goat-Man would have been eliminated for sim purposes, but for storytelling purposes this is the best outcome. Happy little accident because the way it shook out gave a new jumping off point for Palpy. To possibly do things. Maybe. I don't know. 2. Surfborg doesn't do his finisher and then does. Well, that one was kinda funny. It's more of a meta story than anything. When Surfborg first showed up I hyped up his finisher. From my own matches that I ran off the air I knew that it'd happen sooner or later. About every third match or so as far as I could tell. And then it never. loving. happened. I kept saying it would and how cool it'd be and it just didn't happen. But then... one day... Surfborg debuted on Episode 120. He finally did his finisher on... Episode 175. That is longer than a year. The funniest part is that the random camera angle the game cut to made it impossible to follow what was happening when he did it. And so it remains a mystery still. But at least he won with it. 1. Vacation Skeleton winning the Hellfire Tournament (and later using the prize for Bone Idol) When VS won the tournament that was a bit of a shock considering how in past tournaments they usually were out in the first or second round. No complaints from me though, they are one of my favorite characters. As for their use of the prize, well, the only thing I knew was that it wasn't gonna be something as boring as a title match. VS vs. DCB II was an obvious one but that had happened literally on that same show. I'm glad it all culminated in BONE IDOL winning the Hellweight Title. Shame she had to lose it again so soon. We didn't really have very many "scripted" stories this year and more emergent ones. Those are the most interesting ones in my opinion since they write themselves... well not really. You still have to pick up on them and present them right for them to work. Sometimes this is just a good call on commentary or creating a backstage segment to create better context. It's also the kind of stuff that can play out over a long period of time so you have to remind people that a small moment happened two years ago and this is supposed to be the pay-off or something. Not the case with any of the stories up this year, though. Those were easier to follow than that. Match of the Year All right uh... we have one with no votes, two with one vote, two with two votes and one with four votes. So so matches have to share second and third place. 3. Blaze Rider vs. Harmony Gray (EP 180) and BONE IDOL vs. Angus McMutton (also EP 180) First off Bone Idol vs. Angus was one that was put in the custom field by someone. And yeah, it was a good match, but I didn't put it in there because I thought Blaze Rider vs. Harmony was just so good and I didn't want to pick two matches from the same Episode. They also happened back to back. Great way to finish the PPV and our year for sure. Tragically, both matches had, in my opinion, the wrong winner. I wanted to see that big Blaze win, and I also wanted to see a long and fruitful Bone Idol reign. But just because the thing I wanted to happen didn't happen doesn't mean Blaze Rider's push is over or that Bone Idol is done for. It just means they will do other, possibly better things. I'll definitely put them both in the Hellfire Tournament to see what happens, that's a spoiler for you. 2. Kelsey Slaughter vs. Suzan Blades (EP 160) and The Anime Beach Episode (EP 164) Two matches that could not possibly be more different. On one side we have Kelsey and Suzan go to a time limit draw against my best efforts (and trust me, I tried to end it with all the tools I had... but you can't defy the RNG) and on the other, we got a match where people dress up in swimsuits. And Angus McMutton dressed as an anime schoolgirl eliminated everyone. Like, c'mon. KAG was in that match, Angus didn't need to do that. Well, he did also eliminate KAG. Well anyway, a 60 Fire Pro Minute singles match not sucking is remarkable (30 real life minutes) and the Anime Beach Episode match was a fun one too. 1. DCB vs. Vacation Skeleton (EP 156) So, when it came to picking matches for the MOTY poll I didn't think of this one at first. It happened right at the start of the year. But then I remembered that it happened and that it was good and I put it on there and now it won. This is also the only match I rewatched for the poll to make sure it's any good. It really was. It's all that you could want from a classico between the two most beloved babyfaces in the fed, both of which are in the same stable too. They were just having a blast in the ring and so did we. The match that didn't get any votes was this year's Gorefest. Which I had locked in as a strong contender. Though it makes sense, because had I voted myself I would have voted for DCB vs. Vacation Skeleton. The Gorefest was a rock solid second place. Probably for everyone, which is why it didn't get any votes. Funniest Thing Okay, so, two of them got four votes one of them got one vote. So let's talk about all of them. 2. FOE inserts himself into Kayu vs. Majin Bob Sapp and they decide to beat him up instead. This one was one that I thought was hilarious. The thing with FOE is that he isn't really booked. I actually put him on the card once, which I think was the biggest mistake I made in my booking career because I know FOE's deal. He's a random encounter. Well, not quite random. The faceless blob on the overworld that you run into and then you get wiped because they are too strong. Well anyway, he just kinda came out when we wanted to see Kayu vs. Bob Sapp and instead of it turning into a three way it turned into a handicap match until he was out. 2. WNA turning several tag matches into extremely long brutal warfare matches. Truth be told, I think they only really did that for two matches, but they happened close enough to each other that it's now their thing. It's a miracle now of the matches ended due to the time limit. They got close, though. Because you know the deal. Every time they go back to the ring they find a way back out again and there's blood everywhere and suddenly the announcer voice says "50 minutes passed." I'm really trying to keep tag matches in particular at a reasonable length but obviously, I fail. 1. Toru Yano and Arn Anderson team up against some local talent and shoot (on) them. Nothing much to say here really. I put Toru Yano and Arn Anderson against four people and Toru and Arn just pulled out their Glocks. The rest is history. 1. Dicky P breaking his neck as many times as possible in every match and still somehow winning sometimes. Well, yeah, that happened. A couple of times. Just so you fully understand what's happening here. Dicky P botching a backflip and landing on his neck may be a taunt, but taunts can still do damage. Not only to others but also yourself. This taunt does self damage. He is scripted to do it after his finisher too instead of a pin sometimes too. Perhaps the best thing Clock has ever done cause that wasn't me. Best Title Reign 3. Real Beer Float - Legion Tag (4 Defenses) While this one didn't get any votes I still wanna bring it up here because I would have voted for it myself. RBF consistently gave us good tag matches, sometimes even with a story or something. I don't take this for granted from fire pro tag matches. They usually make no sense. I only have a tag division because if I didn't people would ask for it. They are still fun but not usually something I look forward to. And that reign made me glad we have Tag titles. 2. Suzan Blades - Hellweight (3 Defenses) Suzan was our first-ever Hellweight Champion, she won it after beating Angus McMutton in the finals of the first Hellfire Tournament. She lost it after three defenses to Pantha, who herself would go on to defend it four times. Since then Suzan had several chances to reclaim the title that she helped make a big deal but always fell short. Sometimes in the Title match itself, sometimes in the No. 1 Contender Match before. But eventually, she managed to win the title from none other than Harmony Gray, herself on her third reign. Her reign included a MOTY contender against Kelsey that went a full 60 minutes to a time limit draw that somehow didn't suck. 1. Anna May - Darkweight (6 Defenses) The most up part is that all three reigns up for the vote were reigns for characters owned by Deathmaster780. Personally, I'm a bit surprised that this reign won. Sure, it's the longest of the bunch but it happened at the start of the year, in fact, it began on the final episode of 2021 (which aired in 2022 because time is bullshit.) But no matter how you dice it it's the longest Darkweight reign of the year. Overall it's the second longest reign but I don't think anyone's gonna beat Angus' 9-successful-defense-long rampage any time soon. Best Wrestler 1. DCB She won with only five out of eight votes. The correct choice. 2. Dash Three people voted for him. You know who you are. Dash was meant to get no votes at all. I was thinking of just discarding all votes that voted for Dash here because clearly they are wrong but I decided to be kind and not just throw them out. Numbers Oh, it's that part of our little look back. In the past years, I've done some comparisons to the previous years too but I think since there's three of those now that gets kinda hard. Also, this year was a bit of an off year. We had much fewer episodes due to me taking more weeks off. I'll probably still mention important numbers from years past, but no promise, kay? Matches  Ah, right. This one's always interesting to me when comparing it to old years. But this year looking at the percentages is more important due to us having 25 % less shows. 66.6 % singles matches. First of all, I didn't do that on purpose but I wish I had. Last year it was 57.77 %. It makes sense it's up this year because I made an effort to not have shows last super long without reducing the number of matches by simply having more singles matches, those are shorter on average, but wait till you see that average for this year in our next set of data. I have walked back this "book more singles matches" thing already by our last few shows. Interestingly, looking at the tag matches, there have been a good deal more too. Now, the hard number is 59 for last year and 52 for this year, which is pretty close. But we're up a bit less than 4 percent. Which is impressive when compared to our relative rise in singles matches. Because Battle Royals aren't exactly down that much either. In fact they are up. Maybe this is all due to the Showdown Tournament last year? Matches in the Dodecagon don't count towards the singles matches after all. With the outcomes, the Showdown Tournament is definitely the culprit. 52 KOs last year, only 3 this year. The difference of 49 could have gone anywhere else last year. So I think if you account for that the numbers are mostly the same. Of course, Battle Royals and Tag Matches with eliminations have their outcome listed as multiple because I'm not breaking that poo poo down.  In a glorious display of good matched-ness our average rating is up by 0.81 %!!! So it's pretty safe to say it was more or less the same. Overall. Tag matches were 84.53 % in the previous year and see a more substantial increase to 89.66. What this really means is the average tag match was slightly better than our overall matches on average. But we all know that the ratings don't really matter that much. What is and isn't a good match is really up to the one who watches it and can differ greatly from the rating the game gives. The times are a bit more important though. While a match that does long doesn't necessarily overstay its welcome, they often do, and a match that's too short doesn't have to be disappointing either, but in most cases it is. Last year our average match length was 18:27. This year it's 20:55. A pretty hefty increase. Singles and Tag matches have been a bit longer on average, but the Battle Royals were a bit shorter. Our highest episode average was a whole 31:28 on episode 152, skeleton wars 4. This was also our highest episode average ever.  Ooof, seeing Daitan vs. rear end on top hurts. Mainly because it's my fault it lasted this long. The thing with Texas Deeathmatches is that they tend to go a while, so what I do to shorten them is to use a mod that lowers defense values for all wrestlers in the ring. The thing is, when the pop-up came to ask me if I wanted to do it I simply pressed OK without changing anything. And so this lasted for nearly 90 minutes. The skeleton wars match was a rumble this year. It was on the card as IGgy vs. Vacation Skeleton. I'm not sure I fooled anyone with that. But out came many of our wrestlers as skeletons doing skeleton things. Bone-Idol won it and that was a sign of things to come for them as they were in the main event of the final match of the year. Kelsey vs. Suzan was a Time Limit draw that actually was fun to watch. On the other hand, Team Samio vs. Team Dash was a time limit draw that sucked. Finally, we got Harmony vs. Bop Sapp, with Harmony capturing the Hellweight Title for a third time in a very long match falling just short of another draw.  On the other end of the spectrum, we got Unfortunate things, like Duckbaby just kinda squashing Michelada. What the gently caress fire pro? No one asked for this. And I honestly don't even remember any of the other matches here. Wrestlers  I explain this every year so of course, I'll do it again: ELO is a system that measures a skill rating based on wins and losses, it also considers the rating of the other person. In most cases title matches add a factor to points gained or lost but I don't. Over time these get pretty accurate. Mainly ELO is used in chess but it can be used for any zero sum game. On top we have Angus, who's had a killer year once and then a killer Darkweight reign, cementing him as a top dog. Then we have Harmony in third and Grace in fourth. Both have shown themselves to be big parts of the show and strong contenders over a long time. Harmony is currently higher than Grace. But I would consider them both to be as equal as they come. And bursting into the Elite Four is Bone-Idol who's had a great year too, even without her title win. Hell, the fact that she did so well but was left out of the title picture was one reason why I decided to give Bone-Idol that shot. She could have still blown it, though. Compared to last year Angus is still on top, and Grace is still third. But second was Black, who has not had a proper match, and fourth was Fomore who fell just a little lower. On to the IDK rating. What does it stand for? I don't know. It's nothing established just something that I've been using. It gives points for wins and gives more for some match types and less for others. I can also actually restrict the timeframe from which matches are considered, which means this is probably a better indicator of how well someone's been doing, despite being less accurate overall. When I said earlier that Harmony and Grace are as equal as they come this is confirmed here. Harmony may be on top by 10 points but Grace is right behind her. Followed then by Angus, who in the ELO rating is resting on the foundation he's built in the past years. And since not only singles matches are considered we even got a tag team wrestler: Austin makes it in fourth place. Last year we had Angus, Grace, Maya, and Kill Anime Girls in that order. As a little fun fact: The fifth place for both of these methods is Suzan Blades. The competition got fiercer but she's still hanging out up on top with the best of them.  All right, here's where we differ from the past years. Usually, each column would be one quarter of our fed-year. However, this time we're taking stats for the whole year only, instead, separating them by match types. Compared to last year all of these numbers are lower, simply because we have fewer matches than in the years before. Last year Angus was sitting on top with 26 matches. This year it's DCB and Rick Wreckage with 18. For singles matches we got Grace as the top workhorse. Then we have second place shared by Harmony and Bone Idol. And finally Rick, Duckbaby and Blaze in third place. For tag matches I just wanna mention that I only listed a tag team name if they had the exact same number of matches. This doesn't necessarily mean all of these matches were together, just that both participants had the same amount of matches. The RBF being on top is no surprise, they did after all have a very successful reign, putting them in a guaranteed two matches per PPV cycle for as long as they were champ. Finally, Multi encompasses every match type without teams that feature three or more people. While not often overly competitive opportunities often spring from battle royals like these. And let's not forget the Seven Deadly Pins. Mina, who's on top, held it twice this year.  Again, we got Harmony and Grace very close together. It's almost like they are competing even when they are not directly fighting. And this year just happens to have Harmony edge out Grace everywhere. T his includes the Singles breakdown too. Though here we have Angus even higher. It's insane how well he did despite being kind of low key this year. His win against Bone Idol was maybe not the kinda story I wanted but it was much deserved. For the tag division, of course, RBF are on top with their reign. They have a win percentage of 69 % - good for the tag division. Anything above 50 is good in all the match types of course. However, in the tag division, there's a smaller field of competitors so win percentages are bound to be more even. With the Multi category, however, simply winning a single match is already an accomplishment. In the most extreme cases there are seven losers and one winner. Even in a three-way there are more losers than winners. As such, the win percentages are also much lower. Hell, what's considered good other match types, 50 %, is on top here. George Cluwney won half of his matches. However, I need to point out, in general people have fewer of these it might just mean he's won one and lost one. Normally I set a minimum of five matches to be considered for the stats here but I have to make exceptions here and allow people with fewer matches to be in.  All right, as you all know high Match Ratings don't necessarily mean good matches. We've both had 82 % matches that I would have given a 100 % and we had 100 % matches that were stinkers. Now, as you look at the top field for all matches you'll see some interesting names. Names of people that may not be too highly regarded, perhaps, or only had relatively few matches, or who have a gimmick. Or who are George loving Cluwney. What?! The really weird part is that in the main division these people are active they are not represented in the top ratings, with the exception of Pig Destroyer. Pig Destroyer heads the Singles division with an impressive 94.80 % match rating. Followed by Thunder with 94.40. Wow, those are both my guys! Despite using completely different types of moves they do wrestle a similar style, though, in a very basic sense. Thunder was also Pig Destroyer's very first match in OHPW and is what convinced me to keep Pig Destroyer in the roster as a regular rather than a part-timer, like some of my other characters. Let's not let that distract that Grace is only lagging behind by a very small margin. Her Suzan and Bone Idol are kind of expected here. All is right in the world. It's just weird that they were beaten by a guy who loses more than he wins and a tag guy who had just enough singles matches to make the cut. Well, you see, in the Tag Division, we have a singles guy on top. Though it makes more sense for Angus due to his affiliation with The Union. Speaking of, Josef is right behind him. And behind the two of them, we have another team, Florida Man and STevve Dirt in that order. Makes sense that people who wrestle together a lot would have similar match ratings but I didn't expect them to actually be grouped together like this. And in fifth place we got DCB! Hail DCB! Ah, speaking of! The Battle Royals. Again, I had to allow people with less than 5 matches, but DCB DID achieve a 100 % average with more than one match. Aside from Ole Sheev in fifth place with 97.40 %, everyone here has a higher average than even the highest rating in any of the other categories. Matches with many people in them active at the same time just get higher ratings. That's just how it is. Whether they are good or bad.  Ah, let's find out who's had the most Tokyo Dome main events on average. We got famous rear end wrestler Suman right on top followed by Bobson Dugnutt, Agnes, rear end and Vacation Skeleton. With the power of hindsight, these five should be in the new Third Street Sinners instead of the people we got. Not that they are bad, but this is more rag tag. For singles, rear end is on top. She also had the longest match of the year. It was almost 90 minutes long because somehow the game turned off the time limit for the Texas Deathmatch. Which, honestly, I kinda botched, I forgot to tone down the defense stats before the match (something I literally get a pop-up for when the match starts, not something I have to do in the character creator.) Suzan also makes sense, she went to a time limit draw with Kelsey and had other longer matches. Bone Idol and Vacation Skeleton also both had longer matches, obviously, in fact, they had one against each other. Pig Destroyer, though, I could swear had more normal length matches but hey, he's here, it must be right. In the tag division we have Angus on top by over two minutes followed then by Josef Dub who is also over two minutes ahead of WNA, with a combined exact same time. Makes sense, they only tagged with each other. Florida Man and Steve Dirt being here are weird to me in theory, since I built Florida man to not have long matches and Steve to also not have long matches. But here we are. In tag matches anything goes, especially out of the ring. For the Multi-person matches it's kind of interesting that, though they normally err on the longer side, this year the Tag matches the top two with longer matches than the top two for battle royals. Flash and Tara, while also singles matches, appear in multi-person matches such as the 7DP often The same is true for all the others in here, of course. Mina, Palpy and DCB all wrestle in singles and tag matches too.  This one is scary because I do consider a 14-minute match (that's 7 real life minutes) a pretty good time for a singles match. Of course, our overall average people would have higher times, they do wrestle in other match types too after all. You have Anna May here on top (the bottom?) with 15:54 minutes on average across all her matches. in fifth place we have Sapp with 18:28 minutes already. But in the singles matches where the good old 14-minute match once reigned supreme... three of our quickest singles wrestlers already fall roughly on or above that. Harley is the fastest with 10:53, though, and Kayu's got a brisk 13:01. Or average singles match overall lasts about 18:29, by the way. It's also frightening that our people with the shortest tag matches still average in at just over 20 minutes. Maya has an average time of 20:37 but even our most successful tag team clocks in at just 20:49 on average. Remarkably, Anna May has the shortest battle royal matches. She manages to still have the shortest matches overall despite not being in the fastest five for singles or tag matches. Probably as a result of being able to finish battle royals so quickly. Though, I should probably say that even in elimination matches it does count the full time of the matches for those eliminated, so everyone's active times are probably a little lower still. I see Michelada here with an average of 22:24 and am reminded to book her more. After she lost the Darkweight title so quickly my plans got kind of derailed.  Now, before we start I need to point out that the times listed here are only accurate for singles matches. Both Tag matches and battle royals can have eliminations and even if eliminated after just half the match it does count the entire duration of the match toward that person's time. But it's still a cool number to look at. For example, Vacation Skeleton was in the ring for almost nine hours. That's impressive. Especially if you consider that following him is Mr. Shakedown with almost two hours less. From here on out people are grouped together a big more closely. We're only 20 minutes removed from fifth place, George Cluwney. Also, you might think the numbers can't add up if you read further and compare and that's because the Overall includes times for specialty match types. Mainly the one Rumble we had, which added a ton of time for everyone who was in it. For Singles matches we can at least be certain the times are exact. Bone Idol spent the most time in singles matches with 5:20. That's 86.12 & of her total time. In a funny twist, the outlier Vacation Skeleton still spent a long time in singles matches but it's only been 42.53 % of all their time. Oh, and though Harmony beats Grace in most aspects, Grace certainly wrestled in singles matches for a larger amount of minutes than Harmony. In the tag division, shocking probably no one considering what they've done, Wizards Not Allowed have spent the longest amount of time in Tag matches. Even RBF, the ones with the most tag matches and the most successful team this year, is behind them. For the battle royals you could say our usual suspects are on top here. Just people who are in 7DP and other multi-person matches a lot Somehow even FOE who only really shows up very rarely got a top 5 spot.  Now for a mixed bag. In the more literal sense. Just a couple of stats that don't fit anywhere else. Best Bout Machines are the ones with the most highlights. Highlights are chosen by me, manually, and I forgot to do that for a while. But I wanna say that the ones who got several are still people that stood out to me personally. But Rick on top is kind of a surprise. Sure he's had a great Hellfire Tournament and his tear through everybody there was a big part of what made that tournament so interesting to me but I'm still surprised. Well, one of these matches is the Gorefest. Which is a match I regard highly but it didn't get a single vote in our MOTY poll. But with a sample size this small that doesn't mean too much, I guess. Anyway, DCB rules and she got 3. Grace is also always up for a good match. Family Man is another surprise, I guess I'm biased though, and just rate his matches highly because he's my character. Our next two columns are just a list of the longest title reigns in terms of defenses and days we had. I'll just let the speak for themselves as I already discussed the big reigns this year. I just wanna mention like always that defending the 7DP is insanely difficult so getting one defense is already really good. You basically have to win two matches in a row and there are even other people in there with you. And if you win on a regular episode the odds are stacked against you at the PPV, where you start the match off with other people entering more fresh. The "Workhorses" here refers to matches per EP after their debut. Or in this case, specifically matches they had this year. This is all pretty normal but it gives Goat-Man who debuted late into the year and has been booked pretty regularly since a seemingly very high ratio. And with that done, let's see what next year brings for OHPW. May it be cool and filled with many great matches. IGgy IGsen fucked around with this message at 14:49 on Jan 8, 2023 |
