Re: The 2008 MOTYC Thread
Excuse the ignorance, but what is a CMLL Grand Prix match?

Re: The 2008 MOTYC Thread
It was pretty much TNA jobbers vs. CMLL Super stars, Andy.
I'd personally pass. I'm not really big on the lucha style though.

Re: The 2008 MOTYC Thread
The recent Tyler Black and Dragon match, was possibly the best match ive seen live.

Re: The 2008 MOTYC Thread
The Grand Prix is a 7 on 7 (I could be wrong with that number, it may be 8) elimination tag. This year it was TNA guys (MCMG, Koslov, Dutt, Leathal...etc) against some of the biggest names in CMLL. Match was nearly an hour long. I haven't heard any star quotes yet though. Does anyone know if they will put that show on Galavision? I used to TiVo both AAA and CMLL but I stopped cause I don't have any time to watch it, but I need to reset that if this show is on because the whole card is good.
I also am mega behind in viewing. The last ROH stuff I have seen was the pimped matches from November and December, and the last full show was Honor Nation. I also haven't seen any Dragon Gate from this year, but I am doing a big order on IVP later today...

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.
MOTY-KENTA vs. Katsuhiko Nakajima ****1/2 (Kensuke Office)

AJ STYLES Is not A jobber 
The match is on youtube if anyone is interested I can post the links. The match went almost an hour long but I still think the tag match from Victory road was way better. And Ultimo Guerrero challenged Alex Shelley to a Hair vs mask match for the future. Will he accept?
my rating
***
Like Inoki said too confusing. |

Either way, I REALLY need to catch up with the indy and puro scene from this year. I'm only as far as Bedlam in Beantown for ROH (not full shows; only the pimped matches) and I'm still in like, March, for puro. I suck. |
Their 1/1 match was better than their 4/28 match. Partly because I was there watching it live...
Here's my ratings on Sekimoto's big three matches this year:
4/28 M Tanaka vs D Sekimoto **** 1/4
1/1 M Tanaka vs D Sekimoto **** 1/2
1/2 D Sekimoto and Y Sasaki vs T Sasaki and Y Miyamoto **** 3/4 (my current MOTY) |

Me neither, man. If Dr. Wagner Jr. was in it I'd watch it, but he's not, so I'm not.
Shelly/Ultimo sohuld be good if it happens though...

The 1/2 tag is in my top 5 this year for sure. I've got it at ****1/2, but I have a, perhaps inexplicable, love for Seki/Mammoth from 2/9 (which I also have at ****1/2) and that sits third in my MOTY list.
I've got the Seki/Tanaka 1/1 match at ****1/4, btw.

Yeah, that tag is amazing...probably the best tag this year at ****1/2 for me.
I have two Steenerico matches, one Shingo/Hulk and the Kensuke Office tag at 4+1/2 too but the BJW one nips ahead.
In fact, i'd say Sekimoto dead weight Germans it ahead... 
We still need to clear up the "Rising Above" Aries/Nigel situation because that one is pretty high on my list (needs a second viewing too though so it may drop...)
I know it was from last year but got released this year blah blah blah, but if we didn't get it involved in the 2007 MOTYC thread (did we?) and we don't get it involved now, then it'd be like the match got lost in the shuffle
