Re: The 2008 MOTYC Thread
Oh I wasn't trying to talk about ROH, I was trying to make sure that was the guy who said people should stop watching both promotions to watch BattleArts.

Re: The 2008 MOTYC Thread
Steiners, you should give reasoning or explanations for why you are suggesting these matches or why the 07 Rumble was better than this years (which I very much so agree on).

A good wrestling match is like a balenced diet. Basic moves are carbs, they keep you going. It may not be your favorite part, arm drags and such, but they're key to your substance. Dairy is charisma and crowd interaction, like with bones, it strengthens the match. Meat is big moves like powerbombs and finishers. They are cool, but if you just rely on them you would be unhealthy, and the matches would be unwatchable. Technical mat work is fruits and vegetables. We may not like them all, but some of it can be sweet chain wrestling. Last but not least (well maybe) is spots and random indy MoVEz~!, your sugars and fats. You can not just eat chocolate, and thus you need to do more than flips and head drops to get **** and above.

Re: The 2008 MOTYC Thread
A lot of people are starting to get down on the Dragon Gate six man from this years Supercard, but really I don't see how it's not better than last years. Yes, some spots were repeated, but they all worked and the style of the match and how it flowed better really made it seem fresh. It's certainly cleaner than last years and I think it almost approaches 2006. I can't decide if I would have that or Nigel/Aries as MOTY.

Re: The 2008 MOTYC Thread
I liked this years 6 man better than last years easy. But I can't stand Mochizuki and SHINGO didn't really work as well as I had hoped. I should rewatch all three of them tbh.
My MOTN was Nigel/Aries by the way.
