So with Drew/Brock successfully nominated for Worst Match, it looks like the two nights of Wrestlemania gave us 2 MOTYCs and 3 WMOTYCs (all 3 came on Night 2) meaning overall it was a worse show than it was good. Man those highs though

Do the MOTYCs count if they were more Lucha Underground style than WWE?

MOTYC Pencil Army vs Yunamon and Chris Brookes, I Quit Match ChocoPro 63

Emi watched the I Quit Match from Full Gear and decided to show them how it's done.

Nth

ChocoPro has been on a roll lately, but this was a perfect capper on the Lulu Pencil's hat saga.

Brookes bent Lulu like a pretzil.

MOTYC: Suzume and Neko Haruna vs Sakisama and Mei Saint Michel. TJPW Wrestling Of My Mind 12/12/2020

one of the greatest pieces of in ring storytelling of all time, a true masterpiece.

HM for me, a well executed comedy match with a great concept.

I MOTYC a Lulu Pencil and a Hyper Misao match, but this is western Joshi fan meme/comedy wrestling over-praise.

HM Joey Janela Vs. Kenny Omega
16th of December

Too short and too much of a squash to be anything better, but this was a lovely garbage match with tons of yelling and some awesome spots.

Nth, Gatoh Move is only 2 MOTYCs below main roster WWE and should be beating them but these are also great matches
