  1. 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.

    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
  6. 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...

    Garbage's MOTY list thread

    Aja Kong vs. KAORU (GAEA 2/13/00) Well this certainly went a different route than I expected halfway through. Similar to Akiyama on Vader a month earlier, Kaoru gets the early jump on Aja, and even though it gets less time and there’s also an easy German suplex, I think I preferred how this was...

    Garbage's MOTY list thread

    few trios in the Satanico vs. Tarzan Boy feud El Satanico/Rey Bucanero/Ultimo Guerrero vs. Tarzan Boy/Olimpico/Antifaz (CMLL 1/14/00) Pretty awesome, mostly out of control trio. I was gonna watch the Tarzan Boy vs. Rey Bucanero match I remember loving but it was actually taped in 1999 so I...

    Garbage's MOTY list thread

    2000 START Jun Akiyama vs. Yoshihiro Takayama (AJPW 1/9/00) It’s wild how unnatural Yoshihiro Takayama looks with black to me despite being a Japanese man. I liked this match more the first time I watched it many years ago, and it isn't making a top 25, but it's still really good and I love...

    Garbage's MOTY list thread

    The 1990 countdown is done, so here's the top 25 I submitted. El Satanico vs. El Dandy, Hair vs. Hair (EMLL 12/14/90) Mitsuharu Misawa/Toshiaki Kawada/Kenta Kobashi vs. Jumbo Tsuruta/Akira Taue/Masanobu Fuchi (AJPW 10/19/90) Angel Azteca vs. El Dandy (EMLL 6/1/90) El Faraon vs. Pirata Morgan...

    Greatest Wrestling Match Of 1990 - The Countdown

    A worthy number 1. It was actually my own #1 for a while but the more I watched the more it got toppled. Actually it's the only match in my top 10 from before June, so I guess 1990 is a back-heavy year for me.
  16. GARBAGE

    Greatest Wrestling Match Of 1990 - The Countdown

    Yeahhhh I didn't vote for that either. It's very good, at times great, at some points outstanding, but sort of similar to Warrior/Hogan, I thought its main strengths were the beginning and the end, while the middle sort of meandered a bit. The tag matches they had from May to December all felt...

    Greatest Wrestling Match Of 1990 - The Countdown

    I think I messed up a lil because I could have sworn I had that and my #5 (Kandori vs. Harley) swapped around. If it wasn't a mess up then I do wish I had MX/Southern Boys at #5 instead of 6 anyway.

    The Sultan (Rikishi) has a tongue and uses it to put out a diss track on Hulk Hogan

    I can't believe he missed an opportunity to say "we wanna hear you say nword no more" IT WAS RIGHT THERE
  19. GARBAGE

    Greatest Wrestling Match Of 1990 - The Countdown

    I watched Hogan/Warrior for the first time in forever last year. Thought it started out about as perfectly as it could have and also had a great ending. the meat of the match wasn't blowing me away but I still get why the match does it for people. I think I'm of the opinion that there's a great...

    Greatest Wrestling Match Of 1990 - The Countdown

    Correct me if I'm wrong but is that the first unanimous vote so far?
