It'll be more of a countdown. You'll only rank the top 25 or 50 or whatever we decide at the time based on the number of nominees. You *could* be asked to rank a top 100 if there are enough strong candidates, but definitely not in every category. We'll give everyone 2-3 months after receiving the DVDs to watch and rank them all, then we'll do a countdown, posting so many per day so we can build suspense. Kind of like a message board VH1. DVDs will be chaptered by match.

If you can find the date for this, that would be *extremely* helpful. I tried looking it up, but there was dozens of matches featuring this combination of workers.

This will help some. Tatsumi Fujinami v Dynamite Kid (NJPW 02/05/80) Ric Flair v Rick Martel (AJPW 10/21/85) Akira Maeda v Tatsumi Fujinami (NJPW 06/12/86) Dory & Terry Funk v Bruiser Brody & Jimmy Snuka (AJPW 12/13/81) Nobuhiko Takada v Keichi Yamada (NJPW 05/01/86) Jushin Liger v Naoki Sano (NJPW 08/13/89) Jumbo and Flair had five matches against each other in the 80s. 10/09/81 06/08/83 04/24/85 10/19/85 And then one in '87 I can't remember. I'd definitely nominate the first two. I'm not as big a fan of the third one as most, but it should still go here so people can see it and decide for themselves.

Glad you nominated Jerichristian v Bookerdust from NM '02, Dylan. I think it's better than the other, more lauded tag that happened that night. Speaking of that series of matches ... Booker T & Goldust v Chris Jericho & Christian (WWF RAW 12/23/02)

It was 08/04/95 for SMW's Superbowl of Wrestling card. Great match! Heavenly Bodies v Tracy Smothers & Tony Anthony (SMW Superbowl of Wrestling 08/04/95) I'm trying to track down some Waltman/Lynn dates.

I saw Los Brazos at the Marinepiad show in AJW back in 1990 or 1991, can't remember which, and immediately fell in love.

Yeah, I believe sek told us about this a while back.

I think they will continue to lower their own expectations. That seems to have been the plan over the last few years. And the strange idea they have for drumming up revenue is to run MORESHOWSMORESHOWSMORESHOWS, making a stale roster even more stale and at most, only providing a short-term benefit.

I'm interested in seeing the main event. This was an entertaining read. I know I shouldn't be, but it's still surprising how Christian is so over in spite of his treatment all year.

Is that the infamous match that caused Dave Meltzer to write the long, detailed match review about how insane Psicosis is? I've only heard about that, never read it, and wondered if it was the same one.

Muta's big US run was in '89. Most of his 90s stuff is going to be from Japan.

You can, but there's probably not a point. This is just an attempt to gather a comprehensive list of all the matches up for nomination, however many there are.

Whichever you choose, Coffey. We'll have details as we get closer on that. So you're welcome to send the DVDs to me or whoever in the mail for conversion OR you can send an amount equivalent, basically. Brian, the only thing about MMA is that I feel guilty talking about the "quality" of a real fight. Others may differ though. How long has MMA been around? Where does the line get drawn? Are Kingdom, K-1, RINGS and UWF-i considered MMA or pro wrestling?

Vader v Sting (WCW SuperBrawl III PPV 02/21/93) Bret Hart v Owen Hart (WWF Wrestlemania X PPV 03/20/94) Midnight Express v Rock & Roll Express (NWA Wrestle War PPV 02/25/90) Vader v Sting (WCW Starrcade PPV 12/28/92) Randy Savage v Ultimate Warrior (WWF Wrestlemania VII PPV 03/24/91) Vader v Sting (WCW Fall Brawl PPV 09/18/94) Rey Misterio Jr v Ultimo Dragon (WCW World War 3 1996 PPV 11/24/96) Ric Flair v Lex Luger (NWA Wrestle War PPV 02/25/90) Bret Hart v Undertaker (WWF One Night Only PPV 09/20/97) Rey Misterio Jr v Juventud Guerrera v Psicosis v Blitzkrieg (WCW Monday Nitro 04/19/99) Bret Hart v 1-2-3 Kid (WWF 07/01/94, aired on RAW 07/11/94) Vader v Sting (WCW Great American Bash PPV 07/12/92) Shawn Michaels v Mankind (WWF Mind Games PPV 09/22/96) Shawn Michaels v Razor Ramon (WWF Wrestlemania X PPV 03/20/94) Shawn Michaels & Diesel v Razor Ramon & 1-2-3 Kid (WWF 09/28/94, aired on Action Zone 10/30/94) Brian Pillman v Johnny B Badd (WCW Fall Brawl PPV 09/17/95) Ric Flair v Lex Luger (NWA Capital Combat PPV 05/19/90) Arn Anderson & Larry Zbyszko v Ricky Steamboat & Dustin Rhodes (WCW Clash of the Champions XVII 11/17/91) Chris Jericho v Juventud Guerrera (WCW SuperBrawl VIII PPV 02/22/98)

It will be included with Japan. I like the idea of making the men and women vie for those same spots on the Japanese lists, just to show how competitive the women were at their peak. If we come up with just an insane amount of matches, we can always expand the number of matches we're doing for a given category.

Akira Hokuto v Shinobu Kandori (AJW Dreamslam I 04/02/93) Manami Toyota & Toshiyo Yamada v Mayumi Ozaki & Dynamite Kansai (AJW Dream Rush 11/26/92)
