Best of 2014 Pro Wrestling Tracker

Yuji Nagata & Kazushi Sakuraba vs Takashi Iizuka & YOSHI-HASHI - DUD

Mount up WWE Divas, Worst Match of the Year won't be easy in 2014.
 
Quiet December, only two matches worth a rewatch 12 months from now that I saw:

Naito/Tanahashi vs Okada/Nakamura 12/23
Cena vs Rollins, Smackdown 12/29

FWIW I gave the tag 4-stars, which would be outside looking in most years of a top ten unless we are talking late 90's death period, and I don't see Cena/Rollins at MOTY levels either but both were great matches and are being pimped hard in some circles.

I think we can agree no great shows in December 2013? I guess only a few hundred people saw PWG, but the buzz wasn't at the usual level.

Seems like as good of a year as any to use a 13 month calendar next December and get things on a January-December schedule.
 
Wrestle Kingdom wasn't 2013, but was a great show regardless of the impossible standard and a show of the year contender. Last four matches were all very good (had all at ****1/4).

EVOLVE 25 was a legit great show, with a great Trent Baretta/Tony Nese match (****1/2). Best Baretta match i've seen since he was cut, by far.

Chris Hero vs Ray Rowe from Inspire was ****, ****1/4 range. Hero vs Ricochet, same.

AR Fox vs Davey Richards I have at ****.

Jason Kincaid vs Americo on TCW TV this week was bananas. Have no idea when it was taped. ****1/4, easy.
 
 
"Mochizuki vs. Yoshino is probably my new favourite DG match ever (well, in Japan anyway as nothing will ever beat the Nottingham Shingo/Susumu match). Absolutely ridiculous. They pulled out ALL the stops. If you're the type to scream "Overkill!" then I reckon this isn't your match but for me and the 2,000 fans in Korakuen who were LOSING THEIR FRIGGIN MINDS this was something special. I won't spoil but certain things happen in this match that I'd never thought I'd see happen - probably stuff that's a bigger deal to hardcore DG fans though.

Masaaki Mochizuki gave one of the best performances I've ever seen a wrestler give in this match. AND HE'S IN HIS FORTIES!!!! This guy is a true treasure in Pro Wrestling and he deserves to be regarded as one of the best ever because he is.

I was lucky enough to get somewhat of an "advanced screening" of this but it should be available for everyone soon and when it is, you must watch it immediately."

OK, this will no doubt be a victim of expectations now, but holy shit I can't wait to watch this. I avoided spoilers, too.
 
As a master of being able to acquire rare wrestling via the internet...what the fuck is an "advanced screening" of a wrestling match. Just link the torrent (if even on a private tracker) or tube file to watch it...no need to be weird, Alan and make it look like you have these very rare sources of acquiring rare and exotic wrestling.

He gets the direct live feed from GAORA from one of his boys in Japan. He watches as it happens.
 
Maybe my favorite match of January:

Taiji Ishimori vs Hajime Ohaha, 1/19 NOAH


I think I like Baretta vs Nese better, but this was very, very good. Probably a better structured match, but lacked the drama of Baretta vs Nese, which is a feather in the cap of the Evolve guys who were working an opener compared to a semi final title match.
 
Welp, my new favorite match in January was Daniel Bryan vs Bray Wyatt, Royal Rumble ****3/4

Great match.

Rumble was great for the trainwreck stuff. Good month between this show, WrestleKingdom, & the three cool Fantasticamania shows.

ROH San Antonio 2/8

Jay Lethal vs Michael Elgin vs Tomasso Ciampa vs Kevin Steen ****1/4
Jay Briscoe vs Adam Cole ****1/4
ACH & Tadarius Thomas vs Bobby Fish & Kyle O'Reilly ****
 
From 2/9 New Beginning

Hirooki Goto & Katsuyori Shibata vs Kazuchika Okada & YOSHI-HASHI ****1/4
Shinsuke Nakamura vs Hiroshi Tanahashi ****1/2

YOSHI-HASHI is getting better & better, loved him in that match as the odd man out trying to prove himself. What a story that match told on many levels. Former rivals forming a new dangerous team, set up for Goto challenging Okada, seeds planted for Okada/Shibata, and the YOSHI stuff. What a match.

Tana/Nak had that big match feel. A little sloppy at times but these guys are too charismatic so you easily overlook it. Match had me marking out, which is one of my big barometers. Good drama, I believed in Nakamura when before the match I didn't at all.
 
My early "Most Improved" candidate: My man YOSHI-HASHI

What a completely useless pile of shit he was in 2012 & 2013. I've loved all of his stuff so far this year.
 
New Beginning Osaka

Tetsuya Naito vs Tomohiro Ishii *****

Kazuchika Okada vs Hirooki Goto ****1/2

Five fucking stars. Go watch.
 
Alright...played some catch up today.

Naito v. Ishii was very very good. Loved the match structure and it was executed A+ like...but NOT five stars.

Also caught up with some DragonGate...Yoshino v. Mochizuki is a bit overhyped. I liked it a lot. It just went a little too Full DragonGate toward the end which killed it a little bit for me. DragonGate has a "sweet spot" when it comes to ridiculousness...it just inched over the line for me. Still though, very good match.
 
Inspire Pro Wrestling "Light the Fuse"

Robert Evans vs Ray Rowe ****
ACH vs Sammy Guevara ****1/4

Crowd took ACH/Sammy G to that level. Sammy G was made tonight in Austin and is a name to watch. ACH live in Texas can't be explained. You have to see it. He connects with a live crowd as good as anybody i've ever seen on an indie level.

Ray Rowe edges out Chris Hero as the (very early) indie MVP of 2014. Haven't seen the Hanson match from ROH Top Prospect Finals yet, but every other match the guy is in has delivered. Robert Evans is quite simply awesome. If you don't agree, fuck you.
