Is it just me or is MOTY incredibly hard to pick this year? There's a good dozen or so that I can think of where you could make an argument and I'd say fair enough

FTR/Briscoes 1
FTR/Briscoes 2
Okada/Zack
Okada/Jay
Okada/Ospreay
Eddie/Jericho 1
Anarchy in the Arena
Punk/MJF Dog Collar
SIOG/Acclaimed 1
Hangman/Bryan

And that's just off the top of my head and only really knowing about New Japan and the Khanverse

My picks in July, changes in italics

Category "A" Awards: You vote three times for these.
Lou Thesz/Ric Flair "Wrestler of the Year" Award: 1. Jon Moxley, 2. Eddie Kingston, 3. Hangman Page[/b]
Mox obviously still holds the top spot. Jericho's going in second and yeah Okada can have third

Most Outstanding Wrestler: 1. Zack Sabre Jr., 2. Eddie Kingston, 3. Dax Harwood[/b]
I'm not voting for Ospreay because of The Reasons so Zack can keep his top spot. Dax is going up to second for being on fire all year long and I love Eddie but he tailed off so third is going to be Hangman

Tag Team of the Year: 1. FTR, 2. The Young Bucks, 3. Swerve in Our Glory[/b]
I literally cannot vote against The Acclaimed so they move into #1, FTR go down to #2 and SIOG stay at #3.

Best on Interviews: 1. Eddie Kingston, 2. Zack Sabre Jr., 3. Jay White[/b]
Jay's promos this year have been phenomenal so he's up to first, Zack's still second and Eddie's down to third

Promotion of the Year: 1. AEW, 2. NJPW, 3. TJPW[/b]
Same

Best Weekly TV Show: 1. AEW Dynamite, 2. AEW Rampage, 3. Hey EW[/b]
Same

Pro Wrestling Match of the Year: 1. FTR vs. The Briscoes - ROH Supercard of Honor, 2. Kazuchika Okada vs. Jay White, NJPW Dominion, 3. Kazuchika Okada vs. Zack Sabre Jr. - NJPW Hyper Battle
FTR vs. Aussie Open from Royal Quest II is my MOTY because I was there. After that it's so hard because there were so many great matches this year. FTR/Briscoes can have the second spot, I'll pick the Final Battle one and then the G1 final can be third.

Category "B" Awards: You vote once for these.
US/Canada MVP: Jon Moxley

Feud of the Year: Eddie Kingston vs. Chris Jericho
This would still be my pick if it hadn't kept going and going and going. It's gotta be FTR/Briscoes now

Most Improved: Jade Cargill
I'm giving it to Chris Jericho because it's true

Most Charismatic: Eddie Kingston
Forever

Bryan Danielson "Best Technical Wrestler" Award: Zack Sabre Jr.
It's close but he's had the better year

Bruiser Brody Memorial "Best Brawler" Award: Jon Moxley
Easy pick

Best Flying Wrestler: Rey Fenix
Same

Most Overrated: Roman Reigns
Ok yeah Roman's actually become ok I guess fiiiiiiiiiiiiine. Oh well gently caress CM Punk

Most Underrated: Athena
She just won the ROH belt so I guess that'll do. In that case I'm gonna give it to ZSJ, dude should be in the IWGP title picture

Worst Feud of the Year: Sammy Guevara vs. Scorpio Sky
What a mess

Worst Promotion of the Year: WWE
Of course

Best Booker: Tony Khan
I'm actually gonna switch this. Gedo's done a great job reviving New Japan this year

Promoter of the Year: Tony Khan
I can't give this to the guy who allowed CM Punk to fall apart on a live mic so Bushiroad can have it

Best Gimmick: The Acclaimed
I told you about scissors bro! I loving told you!

Worst Gimmick: Lash Legend, Pro-Wrestler
