RIPPA Posted February 25, 2017 Share Posted February 25, 2017 TREVOR LEE vs. Cedric Alexander (CWF Mid-Atlantic - 5/18/16) vs. Andrew Everett (CWF Mid-Atlantic - 7/6/16) vs. Braxton Sutter (TNA One Night Only Dec 16) Also see PWG Trevor Lee Also note that the Trevor Lee/Roy Wilkins 105 minute match does count for this voting period due to the air date rule (The match was taped 2/27/16 but aired in March). I didn't link to it because it is 105 fucking minutes RUSH vs. Maximo Sexy (Hair Match - 3/18/16) vs. L.A. Park (7/14/16) vs. Matt Taven (CMLL 9/23/16) Also see: Rush's abs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spritenaut 32 Posted February 25, 2017 Share Posted February 25, 2017 Both guys should be in the tournament proper. God, I'm gonna run out of hate by mid-March, at this rate. I think Lee had the better year. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
odessasteps Posted February 26, 2017 Share Posted February 26, 2017 Apart from the LA Park brawl, i wouldnt say its been a good year for Rush. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt D Posted February 26, 2017 Share Posted February 26, 2017 He wrestled himself out of big match opportunities with the best Arena Mexico brawl in years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maciej Posted February 26, 2017 Share Posted February 26, 2017 I might also be the biggest fan in the world of this Rush/Silver King vs. LA Park/Fuerza match from Monterrey. That said, while I probably like the idea of high end Rush more than Trevor Lee, based on this past year (and mostly on the CWF stuff, really) I'm probably voting for Lee.

J.T. Posted February 27, 2017 Share Posted February 27, 2017 Apart from the LA Park brawl, Rush has not been very much fun this year and this is with his amazing abs factored into the algorithm. Trevor Lee gets my vote. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jiji Posted February 27, 2017 Share Posted February 27, 2017 The Maximo hair match was pretty fucking great though. The Park match may be the most fun I had watching a match in this period. Up there with some of Keith Lee's and Omega's matches. I need to finally get around to some of this CWF MA Lee stuff though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jiji Posted February 27, 2017 Share Posted February 27, 2017 The few people praising Lee aren't specifically talking about PWG or TNA. I didn't love him in BOLA, but he's been a pretty rad, gnarly prick in PWG for a while. His storytelling certainly has holes in it there but PWG tends to bring that out of people. I don't watch TNA outside of the odd Hardy segment and sometimes EC3/Lashley/Galloway, so I can't say how well he works or doesn't work in TNA other than a few matches I've seen, which were forgettable. Also, does Rush's bacne nullify his abs? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JonnyLaw Posted February 27, 2017 Share Posted February 27, 2017 This match up gave me the most trouble in Pick 'em as I weighed the board's lucha love versus the love Dylan and southern wrestling twitter have for guys like Lee. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jiji Posted February 27, 2017 Share Posted February 27, 2017 He has the best hair in wrestling, so you're right and will play into how I vote. Who has the most punchable face in wrestling? Miz? Bubblegum? Michael Cole? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dewar Posted February 27, 2017 Share Posted February 27, 2017 Oh shit, Bubblegum is a fantastic shout out for most punchable face. I'd throw Lionheart in there too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NikoBaltimore Posted February 27, 2017 Share Posted February 27, 2017 I am quite fond of Rush, and while I haven't been up to date with what he's done he would still get my vote. As for Trevor, I'm sure he's had some great matches and am generally fine with him being part of this. But him saying "Fuck Dusty!" without getting Cody's approval on it at PWG does sour me on him a tad. If that's a rather inane reason to vote against Trevor, then that point aside I still wouldn't vote him over Rush. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phil Schneider Posted February 27, 2017 Share Posted February 27, 2017 We really liked Trevor Lee v. Matt Riddle from EVOLVE http://segundacaida.blogspot.com/2016/11/evolve-63-61116.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cubbymark Posted February 28, 2017 Share Posted February 28, 2017 What hurts Rush's case for me is all the shitty Ingobernables trios matches he has had with his dad, but that's more a case of how shitty his dad is at being a luchador. Trevor Lee has been good the few times I saw him live at AAW (a real fun four way match w/ Kongo Kong/Andrew Everett/Moose and a really good tag with w/ him and Andrew Everett vs Gargano/Ciampa). I might need to sleep on this one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chicken Sandwich Carl Posted March 1, 2017 Share Posted March 1, 2017 This hurt a bit, but I went Lee. I just felt his consistency beat Rush's highs (but man, that LA Park match is immense.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CSC Posted March 2, 2017 Share Posted March 2, 2017 Wow - kind of surprised at the results right now with all the love that CWF gets but after watching that Rush/LA Park brawl I really can't fault anyone for voting his way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
