Reserving a spot for HM: Lucha Bros vs LAX , Impact Homecoming, 1/6

Even if this match somehow ends with Jeff Jarrett winning due to TNAnigans, it'll still rule.

Watch Cavernario's two matches with Fenix last year, both are incredible.

I'm not nominating it, but I do wanna say people should check out Rey Mysterio and Mustafa Ali vs. Samoa Joe and Andrade "Cien" Almas from the latest Smackdown. It was a hell of a lot of fun and Mysterio works so well with EVERYBODY.

pretty fucking embarrassing to watch
I would like to nth Okada/White, Dragon Lee/Barbaro Cavernario, All In-#StrongHearts, Meiko Satomura-Reika Saki and the Ishii-Goto-Ospreay vs Nagata-KUSIDA-Cobb six man - all very good matches.

This one is an Honourable Mention rather than a MOTY; but I'd like to recommend Maki Ito vs Miyu Yamashita from the 1/4 Tokyo Joshi Pro show. In terms of pure in-ring work this one probably ought to not be suggested - its a little sloppy at times and there's nothing that stands out - but its brought up by the charisma of the people involved and the success of the story that they told. The story of the match is very simple: Ito does everything she can and tries as hard as possible but she's not really got a chance in the world of beating Miyu; but that effort almost got her there and the effectiveness of what they did and the charisma of everyone involved meant that I really really enjoyed it and had to suggest it. Ito losing also didn't really cost her anything here: its part of a wider story that they are telling with her that I imagine leads to her eventually knocking Miyu off to win the Princess of Pricess title at some point soon. Not a workrate match but pro wrestling is more than that; and while I'm sure that its only me that dug this as much as I did I just felt the need to recommend it here.

Dragon Lee/Barbaro Cavernario needs one more vote to make the list, if anybody who has seen it hasn't seconded the nomination yet.

HM: Gallus (Joe Coffey, Mark Coffey, Wolfgang) vs British Strong Style (Pete Dunne, Tyler Bate, Trent Seven) from NXT UK Episode 24

No stakes involved, other than, I guess, momentum going into the first UK Takeover event, but I legitimately enjoyed this match more than any of BSS/Mustache Mountain's various bouts with Undisputed Era, which, last I checked, all got HMs last year.

So like, this should get an HM, because it's at least as good as any of those, even without any belts directly involved.

I don't know if it counts for this topic having aired this year but happened last year but everyone who enjoyed Masashi Takeda's work last year needs to see him vs. Jun Kasai from Blood Christmas

Absolutely fantastic.

I'm going to give this an HM because while the ring work is great, not knowing All Out left me lost at times.

I guess this is the match recommendations thread so the most appropriate place, so if you sign up for a DDT Bronze Account (free), then you can watch them wrestle on a train live for free in 45 minutes (7pm JST). Not sure if it'll still be free on demand. Last time it was really fun so I heartily recommend it now

THIS. I want to concur with the above WMOTYC because Dunne beat the best wrestler in Scotland, but that was the best example of hyper-spectacle that the WWE's ever produced. loving amazing. Joe was robbed, but HOLY poo poo WALTER
