I feel like OSJ would be our Rudy Giuliani because no one voted for the Kentuckians and The Assassins over that bullshit we call tag team wrestling today. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's cause Dave Meltzer wanted it that way. So due to this, we should automatically DQ him in our hypothetical awards. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Matt D Posted February 27, 2021 Share Posted February 27, 2021 22 minutes ago, Elsalvajeloco said: It would be because: 1. There is a good segment here that doesn't watch WWE or watch WWE regularly 2. There is a good amount of AEW fans here which frankly pisses off some people here. The AEW fans are going with Mox. The WWE fans will be divided up among people in all three brands. If there was one singular WWE brand or even just only one or two notable WWE wrestlers, you would have a case. There is more avid fandom among several different wrestlers in WWE whereas AEW only has 1-3 people you can really call stars above and beyond everyone else. Interesting hypotheticals. I wonder how we could verify. Oh wait. It’s March 1 on Monday. (You know what that means.) 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Curt McGirt Posted February 27, 2021 Share Posted February 27, 2021 If we ever did a DVDVR Best of the Year poll it should be everyone writes in their own winners and maybe even their own categories and explains them. If any of them jive then we have a consensus, and there should be a definite consensus vote on "Most Outlandish Answer". I think that would actually be a lot of fun. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Speaking of being print subscriber, the shoddy state of the USPS has led to things like this happening. You live in Delaware? Eww. *hits unfollow* But seriously, you're lucky you got both of them. I'm assuming that first one got lost in the snow somewhere and they found it. It takes two weeks automatically for something to get here cross country under normal circumstances. The only reason I get stuff fast here is: (a) It's Amazon Prime or (b) it's from Walmart and I fucking live in Northwest Arkansas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John E. Dynamite Posted February 27, 2021 Share Posted February 27, 2021 (edited) I think the safest thing is to completely eliminate legitimate categories like Wrestler of the Year, Promotion of the Year, whatever. Stick to the board classics. Best Punches. Best WCW Worldwide match. Best Squashes. "The Cody Rhodes Award" for worst tattoo. Edited February 27, 2021 by John E.

But I think the age Bob Holly was when he made his generic bad choice really gives him a leg up. Anyone who nominates Bam Bam's head tattoo would need to be banned. Obviously.

Spontaneous Posted February 28, 2021 Share Posted February 28, 2021 Hasn't Meltzer himself said he rates matches based upon his likes/preferences? If you like what he likes, use his ratings to see what you'd like? Although, I can't think of any awards show that isn't always just kindling for endless arguments. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Give Rhea Seehorn all the Emmys, you cowards! In lieu of that, I hereby nominate her for a Niner award. Of course he'll probably snub her too because he preferred Mercedes in The Mandalorian. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
