Oh good god this is amazing. Riots are tow thuggish bullies. Vipers are scrawny looking insects. The thugs kill the wannabe boy band. And by kill I mean they absolutely destroy them and it's fucking amazing. Vipers get enough spots in for it to be competitive enough but Riots cut them off everytime and go back to destroying them some more. Someone needs to send me every London Riots match that exists. This is on youtube as well as DVD so there's reason not to watch it because this ruled the earth.

Yeah this was just an incredible spectacle and a total blast to sit through. Both Vipers make Pete Doherty look like a bodybuiler and they're just bumping machines for everything the Riots throw at them. Riots themselves are really entertaining bruisers with some nice trash talk and just being suitably stiff in every bit of offence they dish out. More commentators need to reference their distain that the Justin Bieber wannabee getting slaughtered isn't actually the real Beiber. HOLY SHIT at the attempted Ziggler monkey flip bump the scrawny looking Viper attempted when taking an exploder suplex, landed disgustingly on his knees and got taken to the back almost immediately. The Viper who took most of the beating actually looked pretty damn good as a mini Evan Bourne bump freak with some admittedly spotty offence, although the extent to which the Riots had continually dominated at least made the chaotic and unique offence feel necessary instead of just mindless spots. Spot where one of the Riots dislodged the mouthguard, spat on it and then pushed it back into the Viper's mouth was a nifty character moment and the sort of thing someone like Steen should replicate.

Yeah this was really good. London Riots looked so good, definitely two guys I'd like to see more of. LOL at one of the Vipers actually being that little chavy kid in the film Attack The Block.

Bully Ray vs Austin Aries sacrifice
Austin Aries vs Bobby Roode Destination X
Bobby Roode vs James Storm BFG
AJ Styles and Kurt angle vs Christopher Daniels and Kazarian Slammiversary

The tag match being the weakest of the bunch. The rest are simply fantastic. I wasn't sold on Roode entirely to I watched some of these and A Double is the fucking man as we all know. His match with Bully Ray is just immense.

Only TNA match I have as a legit MOTYC is Aries/Roode.

This.

and even that match isn't in the same league as the big 3 matches from NJPW this year.

[Violent By Design]

Great year for TNA as a product, but there isn't a serious MOTY candidate. Best match I saw was Aries vs Roode 1 (didn't see their rematch), and it doesn't touch NJPW, PWG and WWE's MOTYs imo

Ray/Aries > all.

This. Also, WWE's best matches are well ahead of it I'd say.

I was very disappointed in both the Roode/Aries matches, but both ppv Styles & Angle/Daniels & Kazarian matches, Aries/Ray, and Roode/Styles from "Impact" are all MOTYCs. I'd be very surprised if any of them actually ranked too highly on anybody's list in end-of-year voting, but they'll all be somewhere on mine. (Aries' X Division title defenses against Shelley and Joe are pretty great as well.)

What didn't you like about Ray/Aries or have you even seen it? If not I highly recommend it.

TNA hasn't had many great matches this years the matches I've mentioned ( forgot Styles/Roode from Impact) are legit MOTYC IMO. I know PWG and New Japan have had better matches, and far more MOTYC on a consistent bases but it doesn't take away from these matches being great.
