Re: The 2012 MOTYC thread
NJPW Power Struggle
Shinsuke Nakamura vs Karl Anderson
Great match. Anderson playing the dominant heel was cool and he did it well, the machine gun motion he did to Nakamura as he was choking him with his foot in the corner was hilarious. Shinsuke can play a face just as well as a heel and he's easy to get behind. Table/Guardrail spot was cool, and the neck work was really good from Anderson. Hot finishing stretch as I expected going in. That's something you can always count on from any NJPW upper midcard match and upwards. Not quite as good as Okada/Anderson from KOPW, but not far off. ****

^Mike Knox?!
Not crazy about one of his opponents being Carlito Colon, although it's great to hear that he's working matches. Well, not under a mask + only using punches and kicks to suit a gimmick. You know, legit matches.

Alberto Del Rio vs John Cena (Smackdown 11-30-12) - *** 3/4 Really impressed with this match. Was not expecting much from them to be honest.

Yeah Knox was so underutilized in WWE. Seriously could have made him a beast. Does he still have that frankly amazing beard? |

Beard is in tact. 
His Flying Bear crossbody OWNS.

Re: The 2012 MOTYC thread
I'll definitely check out that Mike Knox match. I really thought WWE could've used him alot better. I thought he had a good look with the crazy hobo/lumberjack beard, and he had some good moves like the one mentioned above.

Re: The 2012 MOTYC thread
Yeah, that Cena vs Alberto Del Rio match on Smackdown was top notch. ***3/4. A low candidate on my list. It deserves a mention at the very least. Cena caps off a strong week of TV matches with that one. Del Rio needed it too following his string of crap lately. They have nice chemistry, imo.
