JoeDirt 0 Report post Posted November 11, 2004 Who has wrestled the most four star matches in 2004, and how many do you think they have? Obviously this is something subjective, but I just want to see the lists people come up with. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest The Shadow Behind You Report post Posted November 11, 2004 CM Punk, American Dragon, Samoa Joe have worked 5-10 ****+ matches and that's likely a minimum. As for WWE? Benoit with Three. (Three Way, Showdown in Desert and Second Orton Match on Raw). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tawren 0 Report post Posted November 11, 2004 American Dragon has had multiple really good matches that I'd place in the ***3/4-**** range. 8/7 vs Austin Aries is the best I've seen so far, but 6/24 vs Aries and 4/16 vs Rocky Romero are also both really good. I'd say AmDrag has been wrestler of the year, but I don't think he has the 2004 MOTY which I'd say is La Parka vs Ultimo Guerrero from the 4/18 Guadalajara show.

Tim Cooke 0 Report post Posted November 11, 2004 Bryan Danielson is an easy pick, at least for someone who gets to actually show up on tape. Everything below is an easy ***+ match: 4/16 vs. Rocky Romero (NJ-USA) - ***1/2 4/17 vs. Samoa Joe (PWG) - ***1/4 4/23 vs. C.M. Punk (ROH) - ***1/4 4/24 vs. Homicide (ROH) - ****1/2 6/24 vs. Jack Evans (ROH) - *** (may be a stretch to have this at *** but for being a purely fun match, it fits that rating in my mind) 6/24 vs. Austin Aries (ROH) - **** 7/31 vs. Arik Cannon (IWA-MS) - ***1/4 8/7 vs. Austin Aries (ROH) - ****1/4 8/21 vs. Chris Hero (IWA-MS) - ***1/2 9/11 vs. Alex Shelley (ROH) - ***1/4 9/15 vs. Chris Hero (IWA-MS) - *** (still need to re-watch this one so that is with a grain of salt) 9/16 vs. AJ Styles (IWA-MS) - ***1/2 9/17 vs. Alex Shelley (IWA-MS) - *** 9/18 vs. C.M. Punk (IWA-MS) - ***1/4 9/18 vs. Mike Quakenbush (IWA-MS) - ***1/2 10/2 vs. Samoa Joe (ROH) - ****1/4 11/5 vs. Jushin Liger (ROH) - ***3/4 11/6 w/ Low Ki vs. Liger/Joe (ROH) - ***3/4 Take into consideration that he was suppose to take on Romero on 7/23 and Walters on 7/24 in ROH but had to go to NJ at the last minute. The first would have been awesome and the second could have been Walters best match ever. He was supposed to take on Ian Rotten in 10/04 in IWA-MS which could have added another match. And these ratings are not *** on the "Idiot" SKeith rating system. *** means you should see. ***1/2+ means you should go out of your way to see. ****+ means if you don't see it, you are missing out on true MOTYC's.
