TheFranchise 0 Report post Posted December 13, 2006 I usually look at other peoples answers so I don't miss obvious things, but i'm not going to this time. Since this is the WWE folder, i'll use only WWE wrestlers. Wrestler of the year: Edge - Has been consistently good throughout the whole year, a couple of WWE title reigns, overall the best heel in WWE. I'd have given a special mention to CM Punk but he's only been in ECW a few months. Tag-team/Stable of the year: Spanky and Paul London - Both immensely talented wrestlers, and have been putting on good matches all year. Unfortunately, there isn't a lot of competition for this spot - although the tag division seems to have picked up big time over the last month. Match of the year: RVD vs John Cena - ECW One Night Stand II - Finally got to see Van Dam win the 'Big One' - the crowd heat was amazing for this. Special mention for Team DX vs Team Raked RKO - If only for the Punk chants. Best heel: Edge - As descibed in the WOTY catogory. Honourable mention for King Booker. Best face: This is really lame. Any of DX, by default. This was a HORRIBLE year for a face wrestler. Most improved wrestler: I think you have to go with Finlay. Trainer to WWE Main Eventer in less than a year? Quote of the year: I'm not one for qoutes, Triple H letting Punk read his lines at SSeries. Markout moment of the year: Seeing Bret Hart on WWE TV again, and also watching CM Punk rise and rise. Funniest moment of the year: OVW, Kentucky. Come on, that was great. Worst moment of the year: OVW, Kent... Haha, no. Bobby Lashley winning the EEC. Worst wrestler of the year: Samoa Joe. Wait, no. What's his name. Umaga. Best brand: ECW, by default. Worst brand: SmackDown. Best PPV: Survivor Series 06. Worst PPV: ECW December 2 Dismember - I think this will be everyone's pick. Biggest disappointment: CM Punk and RVD being eliminated from the EEC so soon. There you go. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Just John 0 Report post Posted December 13, 2006 I didnt see it..But was Angle/Taker really that good of a match? Back in February, I wasn't about to believe it either. Honestly, I don't either guy would be in my top 15 or 20 again, but I haven't seen a better match this year than the Angle/UT NWO match. And I'm talking overall, not just WWE. They work a great striker/wrestler dynamic with good build, nice spots, and all the anklelocks actually make sense. It could very well be the best match of both men's careers.

theintensifier 0 Report post Posted December 13, 2006 I seriously doubt that. Angle will never top his match with Benoit from RR '03, unless he and Joe go for longer than 20 minutes, or he and American Dragon hook up. And, Taker's best match was against HBK at Badd Blood '97.

Corey_Lazarus 0 Report post Posted December 13, 2006 There should be a thread like this over in the TNA folder, too. And "Misc." for the various indies and MMA promotions. Wrestler of the year: Edge. He was, IMO, the single most watchable talent in all of WWE this year. The feud with Foley was great (Edge going face-first into the flaming table is STILL a great visual, and in my top 5 WrestleMania spots). Tag-team/Stable of the year: MNM. Nitro rules, Mercury isn't as good as I remember him being when he teamed with Christian York (though the chants of "Hardy Boyz" during their matches always made me smile), and Melina is flat-out hot. Nitro's going to be a star one day. Match of the year: Mick Foley vs. Edge - WrestleMania 22. Foley is my favorite, and Edge is my pick for the best of '06. Best heel: Edge. He's just gonna sweep my picks. Best face: CM Punk. Only because I've hated nearly every other face on the roster this year. Most improved wrestler: Edge. He went from being acceptable in the main event when given the ball, to proving he could run with it and make some great television. Quote of the year: "OH MY GOD!" Just because it was fun to hear that again. Markout moment of the year: Edge Spearing Mick Foley off of the ring apron through a flaming table. The fact that Edge still has sight in both of his eyes after going face-first through the table amazes me. Funniest moment of the year: HUNTER: THE BARBARIAN. HHH's entrance at WrestleMania was great. Worst moment of the year: The realization that the new ECW isn't the real ECW at all. Big Show as champion, disqualifications, wrestlers being told to slow it down, half of the roster being nothing but WWE b-teamers...yeah. Worst wrestler of the year: John Cena. His only interesting streak, IMO, was the feud with Edge towards the beginning of the year. Best brand: SmackDown due to the workrate. Worst brand: ECW since it's not fucking ECW. Best PPV: WrestleMania 22, as it was the only PPV I watched outside of One Night Stand II that didn't disappoint me all over the card. Worst PPV: N/A since I only got 2 of 'em, so voting for the other one would be stupid. I guess I'll say December to Dismember, but I didn't actually SEE it. Biggest disappointment: ECW in general. I hope the contracts of RVD and Sabu are up soon so they can go to TNA. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
claydude14 0 Report post Posted December 13, 2006 Worst brand: SmackDown. Justify please. Do you watch the brand? I mean, it's been heads and tails above every other brand this year, simply by being an average show with logical booking. It wouldn't be tough to beat, but RAW, ECW and TNA have all had ridiculously retarded booking and wins by default. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RepoMan 0 Report post Posted December 13, 2006 Wrestler of the year:Edge Tag-team/Stable of the year:King's Court Match of the year:Foly vs. Edge- WM. Didn't see Angle vs. Taker at No Way Out, but I do have to say there re-match on SD was great, and I have a feeling I'd chose the No Way Out match if I had seen it. Best heel:Edge Best face:Hard choice. No one really stood out this year. I liked underdog Rey going into WM, then the weak title reign ruined it. I'm going with the Bogeyman. Stupid on paper, but to be honest the guy really entertained me. Most improved wrestler:Umaga Quote of the year:Damn Markout moment of the year: Mickie feels up Trish in rout to women's title at WM. Funniest moment of the year:Spirit Squad debutes Worst moment of the year:World title hot shoted back to Cena after 1 month Edge reign.

But that incident killed any hope WWECW would have any of the old ECW feel. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Aero 0 Report post Posted December 13, 2006 Wrestler of the year: Edge or Finlay Edge: The best heel there's been in years. He busted his ass all year long and had multiple good-great PPV matches (vs. Foley at WM, vs. Cena vs. HHH at Backlash, vs. Funk & Dreamer at ONS, vs. RVD at Vengeance, vs. Cena at Unforgiven). His big con for the year, which isn't his fault to begin with, would be that he got screwed during his first title run, and he's been jobbing to DX every week for the past month and half. Finlay: He would probably be the guy who had the most consistantly good matches from week to week. He brought some of the best out of Batista and Lashley, with included a really entertaining TV feud with Lashley in Feb-March that resulted in awesome pull apart brawls. He had awesome matches with Benoit on PPV and TV, and had a really good match with Mysterio on TV shortly before WM. Tag-team/Stable of the year: London & Kendrick There is no one else. It just sucks that they're apparently being split up soon. Just another idiotic move this year by WWE, but who's keeping track anymore? Match of the year: Angle vs. Taker from NWO I'd have trouble coming up with 10 candidates. This is one of the best matches ever for both guys. I've watched it a bunch of times since February, and it's held up each time. The last five minutes were tremendous with all kinds of awesome counters. My only gripe is the "disputed" finish. It still looks like a clear Angle win to me, but getting a rematch the week after didn't hurt. The 'pull down the straps' and deadman sit-up back to back was an awesome moment. Best heel: Edge No contest. Booker T was extremely entertaining, particuarly in the first two months or so of the King gimmick, but Edge is just an awesome dick heel. His tearing apart the Summerslam BBQ poster was hilarious. This is the one guy who actually had a good portion of the crowd cheering Cena over Cena's opponent. That's how good of a heel he is. Best face: RVD Most improved wrestler: Carlito Going into the year, he was one of my most hated. After turning face, he suddenly began to have entertaining matches on a consistant basis. Unless I'm forgetting someone, I can't think of any other real improvement. Quote of the year: Probably something JBL said, but I liked this Edge line toward Jeff Hardy: "Didn't you die a couple years ago!?" Markout moment of the year: Edge wins the title at NYR The crowd was ready to riot after Cena managed to win over 5 other guys in the EC, but then Edge comes out, and there's once again hope. From his celebration post-match, along with the crowd going nuts for his win, this was an awesome moment. Honorable mention: NWO, Angle pulls down his straps, and Taker answers back with a zombie sit-up. Funniest moment of the year: THE HAAS OF FIRE Worst moment of the year: Something DX related... take your pick. Worst wrestler of the year: Khali Boogeyman at least had some 'so bad they're entertaining' backstage skits once and a while. Best brand: Smackdown No contest. Yes, all the Eddie stuff was absolute shit and unfortunately dominated a good portion of the main event storylines, but there was some good mid-card stuff all throughout the year, and Finlay, Regal, Booker, London, and Kendrick all actually got decent pushes/development. Having JBL on commentary does lend a few points, too. Worst brand: Raw ECW at least had semi-decent run somewhere between August-November. Raw has become a huge chore to watch. Endless handicap main events during spring-summer featuring HBK, HHH, and the Spirit Squad made you yearn for the days of JBL main events on SD. Vince's ass and other male ass got more air time than half the roster. If you didn't realize it the first hundred times WWE told you, DX is better than everyone else, especially the Spirit Squad, Edge, Orton, and the McMahons. Meanwhile, Carlito's hot face run is cut off for no reason at all, and he's paired with Trish and Torrie, if only to get him on TV. It doesn't help that Shelton, my favorite, disappeared for weeks at a time on occasion. It's sad that up until this WGTT reunion, the momma storyline is all he was actually given this year. Best PPV: WM 22, closely followed by Judgment Day. Worst PPV: Cyber Sunday (haven't seen D2D, but I'm sure it'd win. Biggest disappointment: The entire Royal Rumble PPV Saying anything about ECW here would be laughable, because anyone who had much hope for it was just asking to be crushed by disappointment. About the Rumble though, we knew the undercard wouldn't be that good, but the Rumble match actually had intrigue over the winner for the first time in many years. Not to mention the line-up of wrestlers was loaded. The match itself was very average and focused on Eddie and Rey, who's iron man performance sucked in comparison to the previous year. Plus, the Rumble match happening mid-way through the show let a horrible Angle-Henry match close the show, if only to allow a rediculous Taker super zombie power stunt happen. Having JBL-Boogeyman and Ashley-Mickie matches doesn't help. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It wouldn't be tough to beat, but RAW, ECW and TNA have all had ridiculously retarded booking and wins by default. Raw to me will always be special, plus it's live, & i've enjoyed that aspect of it. I have also personally enjoyed ECW as i'm a big fan of Punk, and ECW some could say has been mostly about him, even if he hasn't been given the strap, he's the next big thing and they don't hide that. As for SmackDown!, With Benoit being missing for a while, and Londrick being held in the tag division, JBL aside there's been nothing to grab my attention. But that's me speaking, personally.
