The 2008 TSM Forums SLAM-E Awards

DrVenkman PhD · December 11, 2008

Who needs the WON Awards when we have the 1st Annual TSM Forums SLAM-E awards (Alternate unused title - The FORUM Awards: Fantastic Or Respectable Outstanding Universal Merit)?

Much like the TSM Great Wrestling Survey, this is actually about all wrestling companies, but for traffic purposes will be held here. It's all very easy - there are categories, you vote on the winners. Some have one answer, some have three (with a point scale to determine winners - 1st choice is worth 3 points, 2nd is worth 2, 3rd is worth 1). This can either be a fun annual event or a huge disaster, but we won't know until we try.

VOTING TIMELINE: Voting will remain open until January 1, 2009 (as in, it closes at the end of the day on Wednesday, December 31st). The cut-off date for the awards is December 14th, and as far as I know I'm not planning on counting votes as they happen so if you decide to vote before Sunday for, say, SummerSlam as the PPV of the year but it turns out Armageddon is really awesome, or Rey vs. CM Punk becomes one of your MOTYCs, edit away.

BEST OF:

A. Performer Of The Year - the best overall combination of someone who can back it up in the ring but can entertain on promos.

1.

2.

3.

B. Wrestler Of The Year - the wrestler who can best work a technical match. Though part of "working" is the ability to entertain a crowd (this is why Hulk Hogan can never be called a bad worker - bad mat technician yes, but the man could work a crowd), this is meant for those who may not be over with Casual Joe, but Hardcore Henry says he's the greatest of all time.

1.

2.

3.

C. Entertainer Of The Year - while everyone is eligable of course, the idea here is that just because all their matches are about * or less, you find them to be a guilty pleasure or hilarious or what not. I already know who the winner is but we'll go through the motions.

All best of 2008 for WWE, TNA, overseas, and independents are to be consolidated in this thread.

DrVenkman PhD · December 11, 2008

A few tell tale signs I did this at work, near the end of my shift while tired - I completely missed a letter (there was no missing category, I just began matching the WORST OF letters with the BEST OF, even though "Worst" has a consolidated category and thus is a letter short). As Spiff pointed out, I also made an acronym that didn't work.

If any previous ballots want to edit their posts to fix the bad lettering, you can (it will make tabulating the vote easier), but don't feel obligated to fix my mistake.
