  1. GARBAGE

    Greatest Match of 2020 - You Decide

    I watched less wrestling in 2020 than most other years ever so I won't know until I see all that I want to, but I wouldn't be surprised if the Big E/Sheamus falls count anywhere is the WWE tv MOTY. Really fun. edit - (WWE tv as in main roster)

    Greatest Match of 2010 - The Countdown

    The ladder match is really good but did go down a notch (a rung...) on a rewatch a couple years ago. Thought Sakura/Yoneyama was mostly pretty good and had the drama of a hair match but I didn't love it. I don't even remember that TLC happening even though I know for a fact I watched it because...

    Greatest Match of 2010 - The Countdown

    That's the wrong link (the match can be found here) but the December Fu-Ten tag was an amazing treat considering I went most of these years past 2010 not knowing Ishikawa even showed up in Fu-Ten that year, let alone having another absurdly violent match vs. Ikeda. The October tag is also...

    Greatest Match of 2010 - The Countdown

    :goku The Chicken Man match is just a fantastic, violent, bloody apuestas. One of those matches I would be tempted to recommend to someone getting into lucha for the first time, with the slight caveat that I couldn't name you one other chicken man match. Though maybe that's even better. I...

    Greatest Match of 2010 - You Decide

    Been wanting to do this for weeks and we got like five days left but here are some WWE tv matches I remember thinking were - and/or still think are - good. Even if not necessarily top top notch, still good and worth noting, for a lot of them have gone under the radar over the years, similarly to...

    Amazing thank you!!

    Greatest Match of 2010 - You Decide

    Is there any chance we could extend this by a week? I've been slipping -_-

    Greatest Match of 2010 - You Decide

    I loved Masters that year. The Chavo and Ziggler matches on Superstars are really good too.

    Greatest Match Of 2000 - The Countdown

    In polls I've done with people over the years it kind of became tradition to post your own lists at the end so why not~ 1. Atlantis vs. Villano III, Mask vs. Mask (CMLL 3/17/00) 2. Mitsuharu Misawa vs. Jun Akiyama (AJPW 2/27/00) 3. El Hijo del Santo vs. Blue Panther (Arena Coliseo Monterrey...

    Greatest Match Of 2000 - The Countdown

    The street fight fell off my list but its definitely a great match and I was fully expecting it to be the overall #1. Maybe overexposure has something to do with it because I've seen it about as any match ever but ultimately there were 25+ matches I'd rather see on my own list. No...

    Greatest Match of 2010 - You Decide

    I actually loved a lot of what was on Smackdown and Superstars (with some Raw and ECW before they folded it) through 2010, but yeah not much is in contention for a 25 best of the year. My WWE MOTY would be one of the Christian vs. Drew McIntyre matches.
  12. GARBAGE

    Greatest Match Of 2000 - The Countdown

    Of all the TLC matches that's the one I liked the most going when through them again a couple years ago. Felt more like a mad dash for the belts with big moments that come as a result, as opposed to forcing big moments the way a lot of multi-man ladder matches do to me. There was too much I...

    Greatest Match of 2010 - You Decide

    This'll be another year dominated by Japan and Mexico for me. And ironically enough, it'll be harder to find the footage than it was for 90 or 00 since some of it was just uploaded to youtube and taken down and never really seen since.
  14. GARBAGE

    Greatest Match Of 2000 - The Countdown

    Already talked a bit about Kobashi/Takayama. Despite only two singles matches against each other they felt like natural fits that had a big series of matches throughout many years. Really important match for Takayama to feel like a beast. Atlantis/Villano is just magic. Wrestling has been...

    Greatest Match Of 2000 - The Countdown

    Both of those matches were honestly way better than I remembered them being; I didn't expect to have them that high. Both absolutely fantastic atmospheres that had everyone glued to the ring. Even if I'm not a fan of a lot of the 'fighting spirit' type of Japanese wrestling normally, I thought...

    Greatest Match Of 2000 - The Countdown

    I had that match at #5 so I'm hoping the count isn't wrong somehow
  17. GARBAGE

    Greatest Match Of 2000 - The Countdown

    I don't know if I have anything specific to say about Akiyama/Misawa but it was even better than remembered. A fitting last epic in All Japan for the ace before he would jump ship.....ark.....make the ark himself. Kong vs. Kaoru is a great match not just in and of itself, but great to get to...

    Greatest Match Of 2000 - The Countdown

    My number 3 dropping already hahah. Santo vs. Panther was one of the first lucha matches I watched fifteen years ago and I've never had any doubts about it holding up, no matter how much time I spend away from it. Calling a wrestling match 'beautiful' feels kind of silly but this is one of the...

    Donnie watches WWF 1985

    Cousin Junior has a match vs. one of the Moondogs in 85 that's actually a blast imo

    Garbage's MOTY list thread

    Blue Panther/Black Warrior/Mr. Mexico vs. Tony Rivera/Ringo Mendoza/Emilio Charles Jr. (CMLL 3/14/00) Can’t believe how on-fire CMLL were with these awesome trio sprints in early 2000. I’m losing count of the amount of blood feuds CMLL seem to want around this time but I’m of no complaints – to...
