ROH might still have it in stock and you could get 20% off. If not, SMV is where it can be found.

Re: The 2008 MOTYC Thread
5/23/2008
200 Lighttubes + Lighttube Boards Deathmatch
T. Sasaki, Miyamoto, Numazawa vs Shadow WX, Ito, Kobayashi
**** and the best deathmatch BJW has put on this year. +1/4 for the aftermath (which saw Kasai return and tell Ito, Sasaki, Miyamoto, WX, and Abby Jr that they are all wimps compared to him).

Re: The 2008 MOTYC Thread
Someone NEEDS to start upping BJW again, I've been left out of the loop for months now.

Also, I was close to rating Marufuji/Williams 4 stars so maybe I'll go back and watch it.

Ahh yeah I finished it on my vacation weekend. I need to rewatch Bone/Danielson since I was half asleep when I watched it. I wonder why Mot Van Kunder (and this is no joke) had a dildo with him.
I really loved Danielson/Hero especially Dragon out smarting him for the win, plus the crowd was really awesome since Hero is a god to them and Dragon is the anti-christ for some reason.

Re: The 2008 MOTYC Thread
Yeah, Hero/Danielson was quite brilliant. Hero attacking Danielson's arm to hinder his offense was incredibly smart as was Danielson attacking Hero's nose to cause him trouble breathing because Danielson intended to stretch the match out. Then, Danielson wrestling a slow pace and stalling was absolutely brilliant because he was trying to take the crowd out of the match. As for the finish, I absolutely loved it. It fit perfectly with the match and Danielson's persona.
I thought Danielson/Bones was almost as good as Hero/Danielson. Just a tremendous underdog story. It reminded me a lot of Danielson's match at Ring of Homicide with Delirious but this was even better because Danielson was a full blown dickhead.
Absolutely awesome stuff from Danielson the entire tournament.

I'm still giving it to Sekimoto/Y Sasaki vs T Sasaki/Miyamoto.

Re: The 2008 MOTYC Thread
I'm wildly behind on my Puro and WxW 16 Karat is waiting... nevertheless...
NEW MOTY
Briscoes vs. Murder City Machine Guns - Return Engagement **** 3/4
We begin with MCMG owning, showing new double team the Briscoes don't know and a willingness to take shortcuts to get ahead that lets them end in control of most exchanges, though, as always, the Briscoes are close behind. Finally, the Guns do a miscommunication spot, that allows the Briscoes to control. Being so awesome at combos, the Briscoes do a lot of damage fast and control Shelley until that willingness to cheat rears it's head again and MCMG regain control. Some eye rakes then allow Sabin to dive and it's clear the Briscoes are a step behind this encounter.
The Briscoes finally fight fire with fire, isolating Sabin and keeping Shelley off the apron. Sabin's workover is sold beautifully, stiff and really well done. Awesomely, from here on out, Sabin can't get more than a move or two in a row without collapsing from how badly he's been beaten. Shelley's hot tag leads to numerous tag sequences, with things that worked in the first match and even earlier in this one not working now, but it's clear that Briscoe are at a disadvantage in the tag work department, a departure from last year where they were barely superior at that.
The Briscoes get desparate and start inventing new combos on the spot. This turns out successful and leads to an out-of-nowhere Jay Driller, which Sabin manages to kick out of, having gotten a decent amount of rest while Shelley did the bulk of the work for several minutes. He then eats a Springboard Doomsday, having no energy left to fight out, and is saved by Shelley at the last second. Shelley takes out Jay and himself, as Mark goes for a shooting star on the downed Sabin. Sabin knows its coming from their last match (awesomely pointed out by the commentary) and moves, getting the huge tag to Shelley.
Mark is hurt so Shelley goes with the Sliced Bread #2. Mark is strong enough to escape that, so Shelley goes up. Jay stops him, but with his last bit of energy Sabin hits a super German suplex. Mark manages to climb up to try and stop Shelley, but Shelley suckerred him and Mark's still too weak. A Super Sliced Bread #2 finishes.
This was incredibly well done with only a bit of off selling from (who else) Mark keeping it from the full 5, but even Mark was far better than usual. The Guns stepped up their tag game and used cheating to keep ahead of the Briscoes, but when Jay and Mark's hands were forced they started trying new things. Unfortunately, they only really weakenned Sabin, but not enough that he had nothing and he was able to come through in a big moment due to knowing his opponents from the last encounter and Shelley, the freshest man in the match, was able to finish.
Wow.

Re: The 2008 MOTYC Thread
I have three ties:
John Cena vs Triple H (NOC) - ****1/4 (alot better than wm22, shocking ending)
Edge vs Undertaker TLC (ONS) - ****1/4 (very unpredictable)
Ric Flair vs Shawn Michael (WM24) - ****1/4 (the emotion factor brings it up)
However I think I'm leaning towards the TLC match. The ending shocked the hell outta me even though I was pulling for Edge to win. Great match.
