Both are very handsome men. Io Shirai is super-attractive.

El Satanico - 30 years 1984: Koshinaka, Cochise, Atlantis 2014: El Dandy (maybe not so much "great" as "two old-timers having a really solid match")

Corey Graves' brother who works for CMLL.

Very good TV match with great selling by both guys. Bryan with the long-term damage done by Cass and accumulated in the Rumble and Rusev with the work on the wrist done in the opening minutes. I didn't agree with Rusev going over, but the set up for the Machka kick was really cool.

If we're going multiman you can push this back a few years for Liger. Any ones in particular?

Forgot all about that match. That was indeed a hoot.

Leader of Men is a great song.

Really cool to get a perspective from someone who doesn't closely follow the product. I've only been following myself for the past year or so, bu you pretty much hit the nail on the head with this.

On that note, Negro Casas has certainly had some great matches the last 3 years, so pegging him at 2015 seems to be selling him short. Guy had a really good match with Sam Adonis of all people on New Year's Day. You're pretty much guaranteed at least one banger singles match from Casas per year.

Music: Pretty much hard rock and heavy metal all the time when it comes to music. Judas Priest is probably my favorite. My favorite album by them is either Painkiller, Defenders of the Faith, or British SteeI. I also really dig progressive/symphonic/power metal a lot, particularly European bands like Gamma Ray, Helloween, Sonata Arctica, and Stratovarius. Favorite thrash band is Megadeth, favorite alternative band is Alice in Chains Not a huge hip hop fan but there's some artists/albums I absolutely love. Most of Lupe Fiasco's, Kanye West's, and Eminem's stuff is my favorite. It's Dark and Hell is Hot by DMX also ranks up there. Sports: Not really a sports fan except when it comes to MMA, and even then I've sort of been on the outs with it.

I was thinking Tenryu as well, but I think his match with Okada was similar to Lawler vs. Miz where it was good for what it was rather than truly great.

Terry Funk is probably the winner though.

Jushin Liger-26 years vs. Naoki Sano (1990) vs. KUSHIDA (2016)

How do you feel about late era Dexter? After season 4 it becomes a super peaks and valleys show. Hated season 5, thought season 6 was pretty good, season 7 was OK, season 8 started strong but completely sputtered out at the finish line.

The "Is TNA the Worst Promotion?" thread is interesting because a lot of cool stuff is being re-discovered and there are some really high peak matches, but there's still a ton of crap they put on as well.

His TV match resume is very good, especially when he was almost regularly wrestling in 2016. And the fact that he got legitimately good stuff out of Jinder of all people speaks volumes to his ability of making the most out of (almost) anyone.

The Roman ER match and Cena Rumble match might be the the two best of his career.

The weekly weigh-ins Team 3D had to have in order to participate in X Division matches were hilarious.

The Simpsons Breaking Bad Seinfeld Dexter Law & Order: SVU Bojack Horseman Family Guy It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia Big Bang Theory The Office (U.S.)

I think this was the best of the series. While the last two matches saw them basically just having a wrestle, the intensity was turned up quite a few notches this time. Nakamura was aggressive from the onset and repeatedly disrespected A.J. with stomps and taps to the head. A.J. in turn was much more fired-up during his comebacks, hitting a forearm to the back of the head in particular. Still, Nakamura always seemed one step ahead until A.J. threw a chair at his legs (which reverberated and cut him up something nice). Both men trading low blows was good at first but then it got way overkill leading to an unbelievably anti-climactic and nonsensical double-finish. Still, there was a lot to like about this match.

Liv isn't great, but I think she has the character stuff down pretty well and does a good job with those flopping heel bumps. Sarah hasn't really stood out though.

The whole feud stunk to begin with, but Brie all of a sudden turning heel in 2014 for reasons even after all the awful things Nikki did to her was some of the laziest storytelling I've ever seen. Then again, that sort of sums up late 2014 into 2015 WWE.

I was always against the move to the four-sided ring. Six sides is what made them unique.

As soon as Russo got back in TNA in 2006, he turned AJ Styles from a super over babyface main eventer into a stupid tag-along heel. It's amazing that AJ managed to actually make it work, it's a testament to his talent, really. But the turn really sucked when it happened and made no sense whatsoever. I always thought Tatanka (yeah, old-school), once the turn was done (which was excellent in build in execution) went from hot babyface to just totally blah in a matter of weeks. Lackey A.J. is literally one of my least favorite runs in all of wrestling.

A.J's heel turn in 2010 that led him to becoming the new "Nature Boy". Just a really bad fit for him. I've actually hated all of A.J's heel runs with the exception of Bullet Club and his turn in WWE. Seemed like he had a much better idea of who he wanted to be and how to convey that on the mic.
