Re: The 2008 MOTYC Thread
Well, I haven't seen Ring of Homicide, but I'm always a fan of the underdog story dymanic. Once I download all of the matches that Crash upped I'm gonna try and sit and watch them all in one sitting. Just 'coz that's how I roll.

Re: The 2008 MOTYC Thread
GHT Jr. Titles Match - Shingo & BxB Hulk v KENTA & Taiji Ishimori (Dragon Gate, 3/20) ****1/4
Great match, but I've always semmed to be missing something with this match. I've seen it given as high as ****3/4, but I really don't see it at that level. Still though, most people on here at least have it at ****1/4 too so I don't think I'm underrating it (on here anyway).
Like the story with the NOAH guys killing Hulk and keeping Shingo out of there 'til they've had their way, then using the advantage of Hulk being out of it to go after the powerhouse Shingo. Ishimori is great at bringing the MOVES~ while Hulk is awesome at taking a manly beating. KENTA and Shingo are just awesome in general. I'd liked to have seen more Shingo/KENTA exchanges, but it looks like they're building to a singles match down the line anyway, so I understand them not wanting to give too much away yet.
So, really good match... great even, but I'd put at least 10 ahead of it so far this year.

Bryan Danielson vs. Mike Quackenbush - ****1/4
I don't care how long you've been watching wrestling, put these 2 f*ckers in the ring and they'll still show you some new modifier on a move.
That back body drop into a sunset flip was all kinds of awesome.
Bryan Danielson vs. Chris Hero - ****1/2
This was Crowd Manipulation 101 right here. They both have the whole building eating out of their hands before the bell even rings, and from there on it only gets better.
Ending is brilliant, and Generico should definitely get more colour commentary gigs

Re: The 2008 MOTYC Thread
Nigel McGuinnes v Tyler Black, ROH Take no Prisoners - ****3/4
Ho. Lee. Shit! This was 3534 different kinds of awesome, and it's my new MOTY so far. I fucking loved the whole deal with Nigel being the absolute M. Bison (Street Figher, in case someone's been living under a rock forever) dickhead and Tyler being the young challenger that just WILL NOT stay down and, seemingly, that's impossible not to cheer for. Nigel's utter domination was awesome; Black's determination was awesome; the crowd was awesome; everything was fucking awesome! I found myself marking and hoping that Tyler might sneak it this time... OK this time... THIS time, even though I've known the result since it happened. If that's not good 'rasslin then fuck if I know what is.
If I was going to complain about one thing, it'd be that Tyler probably kicked out of juuuust about too much (I think it ending at the Jawbreaker Lariat might've been less overkill-tastic), but the rest of the match was too good for me to bother. Unbelievable stuff!
