I don't think New Day stuff is going to age well guys.

Bayley has spent nearly all of her time since the iron man match wrestling barely trained workers, and making them look good. Names.

I like Gable and Jordan and generally agree with a lot of Matt's criticism BUT Lesnar destroying everything at the post-Wrestlemania Raw and the Undertaker pull apart brawl were the best WWE segment of the year and the Reigns match may have been the best WWE match so. He wins.

You ok man? I don't give a shit about you not liking something but your argumentation and personal attacks have been pretty pathetic. Cut it out.

Not like he wore a Beatles shirt.

When did Sasha wear an Operation Ivy shirt? Boom.

I can't help but imagine how much everyone in PWG would laugh at you for talking shit about a popular japanese wrestler.

Not El Satanico.

Feeling a strong desire to play WWF Attitude now.

I hope he has a year long IWGP Title reign so RIPPA can't ignore him in next year's tournament.

How about using a proper STO instead of reverse ones STOs rule Space Tornado Ogawa

It's Taurus right? says me, who has watched like two AAA matches this year if that. I don't even know how the guy looks.

Guys we haven't had an Overdrive in a while...

I can't believe the popular WWE wrestler is winning.

Man you are not going to convince me by pointing to VOW. People like Dragon Gate over there. And since his gimmick is intertwined in his ringwork I don't see why it wouldn't be a valid reason. And considering how many of the New Japan "greats" are worked these days I'm fine with Naito working differently.

I'm selling my vote. Vote for guys I voted for and I'll vote for your guy here.

Wrestling is fake.

Ambrose's clothesline IS half of his offence.

I don't think Sami's done anything great since he returned (well. not anything great THAT'S AIRED at least) and I picked Balor in the pick 'em but then I remembered how boring Prince Devitt is and the terrible match they had in Japan and how he really works like that all the time and Sami has at least some stuff I liked a lot before he got injured so. Zayn wins.

I like Sasha a lot but I don't think she's capable of producing a nuanced performance like Suzuki's vs Nakajima or the first two Marufuji matches, or would be able to carry MAYBACH Taniguchi to a match I would watch and enjoy. Suzuki is hardly the world's most consistent worker but I feel like his ceiling is much higher than Sasha's and we there were enough great performances of his this year for me to be able justifying a vote for him.

These guys get a spot yet Toru Yano doesn't. The world is neither just nor unjust.

Look, I like UG but it's not like he had this great year when he wasn't feuding with Thunder. The Rey Escoprion match ruled. And there's a couple other fun matches. Meiko has a much stronger resume with the Hojo matches, the Hamada matches, the Io Shirai match, the Arisa Nakajima match etc.

Naito has a great match vs Shibata in the G1 and their rematch was really good as well. Most importantly to me he's been super enjoyable to watch in everything he's done and his match vs. Yano from the G1 may have been my favourite match all year. I would vote Meiko over Naito easily, the other worker in a great Meiko match not so much.
