Obviously nobody on the forum really watches wrestling anymore, hence why people come back and moan about the old board once every three months. Despite how utterly shit TNA is/WWE's storytelling has been/how mysterious Japan/Mexico/the Indies are, we've got to have some favorite matches to throw around, right? I have a tenuous list, based primarily on matches I remember seeing live (this is the year I finally went to some indie shows) and the past few months of WWE TV. I guess, mostly, that I'm trying to put something together for the stupid blog I'm doing. Make fun/join/suggest as you will. If I end up being really awesome about this, I'll post links to videos/downloads as I find them.

Already an addition--Sara Del Rey and Kana working an insane grapplefest in Smokey Mountain territory. I think the two leave their feet a total of five times, and those five times are for suplexes and a piledriver.

No offense, dude, but based on your list, this has been an awful year for wrestling. The Wolves are boring, that TNA match at the top of your list was an abhorrent spotfest, and there've been matches on NXT better than Morrosn/Miz's street fight.

Needs more Regal.

ADR vs. Christian (3/25/11): Weirdly hot crowd, probably the hottest a crowd has ever been for Christian or ADR, and the outside shenanigans doesn't actually get in the way of the match.

Partially forced retirement, though he's been making waves for a comeback on Twitter.

His match against Danielson on Superstars and against Jon Moxley on FCW are totally worth watching.

The best part that's not wrestling related? They play a snip of his "Real Man's Man" theme to fuck with him.

I've been so lame about watching anything lately. I just came in here to post Sara Del Rey vs. Kana 2 and noticed you already did. I just got around to watching it last week.

Also, I think WWE finally infiltrated my wet dreams, because we've had sufficient Punk/Danielson matches.

Kana vs. Del Rey might be my favorite match of the year. Very odd, considering that the ropes were fucked, and yet they handled it so well.
