Personally, FMM from VR is my pick for TNA match of the year so far. Awesome match.

Btw the VR opener is amazing but some will like it more than others depending on if you like spotty matches.

I have the 12-man Elimination X at ****1/4. And my rating for the IronMan is not overrated at all. If you're into the feud and if you know the characters of AJ and Daniels.. you will enjoy it very much.

I've got the 2 VR matches at **** for the FMM and ****1/4 for the 12 man tag, there both great matches totally deserving of the ratings IMO. Meltzer gave them ***3/4 and ****1/4 respectively, so it's just not just people from here saying they were great.

VR 08 only guys.

I will give my rating on the opener tomorrow once I have watched it. I don't like spot fests which are meaningless. Hopefully some good story telling in the match too.

Wouldn't go that far.

Yeah I knew that with the last post, I was saying that I thought before you clarified it that you were talking about that match.

Nope, no storytelling at all until the final 4 atleast. You know when you watch and X-Division match and there are fast paced spots and slow rest holds. Well this one is just like that minus the rest holds

What are some of the candidates for 2008 MOTY?

I think Joe/Angle at Lockdown and the 12-man tag at VR, what else?

[Taroostyles]

^My top 10

1. Joe/Angle-Lockdown-****1/4-****1/2
2. 12 Man Tag-Victory Road-****1/4
3. Cage/Angle-Against All Odds-****1/4
4. Angle/Styles-Slammi-****-****1/4
5. Lethal Lockdown-Lockdown-****
6. Angle/3D vs Cage/Styles/Rhino-Victory Road-****
7. Cage/Angle-Final Resolution-****
8. Gail/Kong-Final Resolution-***3/4
9. MCMG/Speed Muscle-Impact 6/12-***3/4
10.Petey/Kaz-Slammi-***3/4

This list changes frequently tho, Cage/Angle six sides of steel I think would probably be the next after this.

[TripleG]

MOTYC's for TNA:

(no order, just as they come to mind)

Joe vs. Angle from Lockdown

Angle vs. AJ from Slammiversary

12 Man Elimination from Victory Road

AJ/Cage/Rhino vs. Angle/Team 3D Victory Road

Lethal Lockdown

Kaz vs. Petey Slammiversary

Cage/Angle series (FR, AGA, SSOS on Impact)

Gail vs. Kong: Final Resolution

I'm sure I could think of more, but those are the ones that popped into my head right away.

Now, I liked Angle/Cage at Final Resolution better than Against All Odds, but maybe that's just me.

I think you might have AJ/Angle too high, it wasn't a bad match by any means but I feel like they can do better.

And like Triple G said I also think Kurt vs Cage SSoS fits somewhere in the Top 10, I'd take MCMG/Speed Muscle out just because it was such a short match. With a longer match they'd be Top 5 easily!

But overall I think that's a great list, hopefully we can add to it tomorrow with some great matches at Hard Justice.

Kaz|Petey (SV) - ****
12 Man Tag (VR) - ****1/4
Angle|Joe (LD) - ***1/4
Angle|AJ (SV) - ***1/2
Lethal LockDown (LD) - ***3/4+

MCMG|Speed Muscle - ***
