Re: The 2008 MOTYC Thread
Rewatched the NOAH 6-man that was getting pimped a couple pages back (by meyself included) and I'll just bump the rating down to ****1/4. Marufuji is still fucking AWESOME though.
And I REALLY want to see Kanemoto/Tanaka now as Kanemoto has been one of my favourites for a while, and Tanaka has become one of them so far this year.
And just to chime in on the wrestler of the year discussion, so far I'd have to go with either Sekimoto, Tanaka or Michaels. I need to watch a little more from the first 2 before I decide though.

Re: The 2008 MOTYC Thread
Jimmy Jacobs vs. BJ Whitmer - Barbed Wire Match - **** 1/4
Unbelievably brutal match, I might be in the minority, but I preferred the I Quit. Not to say this wasn't great but I'm just not too big on DM's.
This was still some incredibly sick stuff. The corner spot with the BW stuck in JJ back was seriously fucked up! The Piledriver by Whitmer on the outside was crazy shit and the ending was pretty cool as well. Who the fuck makes these tables lol?
Non-match notes. Really liked the commentary I don't know who those guys are but they were really good. And the speech by Jacobs afterwards was a nice touch.

I preferred the "I Quit" as well.
Not exactly sure why, i guess i'm really not that big on these sort of matches.
I find the psychology of an I Quit match to be more appealing than the deathmatch one - it gives the ultraviolence more of a reason (apart from, you know, hurting each other as much as they can).
Again, not bad by any stretch, i have it at least on the 4* mark, if not 4+1/4, but it didn't get to me as match as the I Quit did.

Re: The 2008 MOTYC Thread
^Yeah to me the I quit match seemed to have more emotion which helped me get into that one more.

I pretty much agree with this totally except i hated the commentary, my god it made me irritated at some points, for 1 i really wish they'd get a monitor or some set up where they can actually see the stuff during the match but i'll stop with the petty stuff.
Other than that it was a sick match, Jimmy was bleeding a ton to begin with and when the barb wire got stuck in his back....my god that was nasty.

Re: The 2008 MOTYC Thread
Ben Jordan & Brandon Thomaselli were the clever duo on commentary, for everyone's information.

Re: The 2008 MOTYC Thread
Just a quick question, but was Kingston on commentary for the I Quit match? I could've sworn it was, although I'm not entirely sure.
