Cosplay is kind of a Wrestle Kingdom tradition.

I'm not sure it was the best match of his career but I think it was the best heel performance of his career.

I feel like 10 years from now we're going to hold up the Jericho/Omega match as a definitive heel performance for Chris Jericho. Him calling Chono fuckface was hilarious.

I didn't do the wrestler one because I didn't feel up to taking into account all the factors that make a wrestler great. With this, I feel like if I really like a match I just have to place it correctly. Also, I have this wonderful list of matches I can watch and consider instead of going big picture with a single wrestler.

That's even better than Duggan at the Preds game last year. Side note, I really really wish DeAngelo Williams would get into wrestling. He was really good when he wrestled that match for TNA last year.

Wait... People do the English commentary? I hate Kevin Kelly with a burning passion and just go with the Japanese announcers. I don't know what they are saying but they add to the product for me vs. Kelly who actively ruins it.

Not a lot unfortunately. There are a couple of YouTube channels that have several episodes and some assorted matches and promos. That's a bummer. I would love to see the weekly TV for it.

I might nominate it then.

Is it acceptable for this to throw out nominations like say Eddie Kingston vs. Mike Quackenbush from High Noon. Nothing that will ever make a list but something that's worthwhile and people might have missed?

I will make an honest effort to get involved with this.

I always love Wrestle Kingdom. Even when the card is a little lacking. To me, it's what Mania should feel like every year. I'm super excited for Okada/Naito.

I played the IWA for a few months a couple of years ago. Yes, it's still around. I haven't done the e-fed thing for a really long time. I just don't seem to have the attention span for them despite good intentions. I ran one for about 3 years at the height of the Monday Night Wars.

How much of Poffo's ICW is out there footage wise?

I'm pretty sure I could subscribe to DDT Universe and never want for footage again. So I'll take option 1.

Just start watching the TV. It's weekly and they just had their big show.

I would like to go to more shows but I hate WWE shows for the most part, NXT is a pain to get a ticket to and RoH raised their prices. Sadly, Columbus doesn't have a good local indy to go to. I would have to drive to Dayton or Cleveland to get a reliable promotion that brings in actual good talent. It's really weird that Columbus is kind of hot for wrestling right now and no one is willing to run a good promotion.

Hell yeah, dude. Great year for them, IMO. Yeah, they have always been a promotion I have thought about getting into but never have. The fact that they run 11 shows a year really helps.

Well I got mine started and used the High Spots sale to get most of the 2017 PWG shows.

Luger's Torture Rack was pretty protected. The Jackhammer and Spear for Goldberg.

It's amazing how much bad booking he's survived and how something as simple as having a guy sing about him has gotten him so over.

I typically hate wrestling shirts but I love that Happy Rusev Day shirt.

I've been watching a bunch of stuff recently. There are just some moves that should never be kicked out of because of how cool and devastating they look. The package piledriver for instance should never be kicked out of unless you can grab the ropes.
