Come on ! I nominated Raven knowning he was gonna get obliterated anyway. I'm sure Muraco has more fans. I mean, when he was on, he was ON.

I was planning on nominating him after I had some time to sit down and review about 20 matches to make a really strong argument. I can put him up now, but he will be attacked badly and I am not armed with enough tools to make a strong defense.

Raven, Takada and Backlund didn't wait for strong positive defenses to get their own threads. But hey, you are the one putting the threads up… I'm curious tp hear your argument though, because I love Muraco when he's on. When he's not… AHHHHHHH !!!!!!!!!

So, there's a censorship on Muraco… okay...

 

Tiger Mask/Super Tiger/Satoru Sayama.

Through the Yearbooks reviews :

 

Koki Kitahara (the WAR Hash/Kawada-like, also named Tatsumi at points)

I nominate Chikayo Nagashima. Match reviews from Yearbooks:

I nominate Phil Hickerson. I don't have match reviews but I promise I will watch and review everything online I can find before the project ends. I really wanted to read his thread and ask for match recommendations but saw he wasn't nominated so I figured I'd toss his name out. I also wanted to nominate the complete opposite of my last post and I can't imagine two more different people in the same profession than Phil Hickerson and Chikayo Nagashima.

I think Jose Lothario needs to be at least discussed, as NWA Classics throws up great match after great match. I have some reviews on SC and there are some in the matches forum

Ian rotten was probably a top 5 Indy worker in the 2000s. Reviews here

Fujita Jr. Hayato, awesome 08-09 M-Pro, hope this leads to more recs for matches more recently in his career.

Katsuhiko Nakajima, the boy wonder, I wonder if he has petered out since his hot start. If anybody has any match recs for 2010 & after he could make my big board.

I am not sure how much is out there, but fuck is the Spoiler good in that Wahoo match and we might need to investigate him further

CIMA

Dragon Kid

Ryo Saito

Susumu Yokosuka

Genki Horiguchi

Kenichiro Arai (Lanza wanted him nominated, I think)

 

http://openthereviewgate.blogspot.com/

 

There's at least three reviews for each guy there. That should be all the Dragon Gate guys that need to be nominated.

I am not sure how much is out there, but fuck is the Spoiler good in that Wahoo match and we might need to investigate him further

There needs to be a minimum of three, is that available?

If Reigns is nominated, then his female counterpart in great modern WWE matches should be as well...

Also, Mick McManus via microscope http://prowrestlingonly.com/index.php?/topic/19675-mick-mcmanus/

To me the only glaring omission from the nominee list is Naomichi Marufuji
