Was gonna say HM but gently caress it:

MOTYC: Rey Mysterio vs. Andrade in a 2-out-of-3 Falls match - WWE Smackdown 1/22

How the gently caress Rey can still be so quick and innovative at his age and the condition of his body belies belief. Andrade is able to keep up with him every step of the way and it made for an absolutely incredible match full of insane moves, big spots and innovative counters aided by a hot crowd that was fully into the match and absolutely invested in the face/heel dynamic. The ending may detract slightly from the match, but the match itself was so good I can't really hold it against it.

Watch this match, 2nd. The ending wont take away in what was a superb match between two wrestlers who complement each other greatly

It was a mess, but an absolutely beautiful mess and both guys were incredibly committed to getting the most out of it as possible. To the point of being legitimately concerning at times. It's carried over to MOTY status for me by the significance of the participants, but even without the circumstances of Moxley's signing it would still be an incredible match.
