Akitoshi Saito seems like someone who'd have done a whole lot better if we ranked 150 or 200. Easily lost in the shuffle despite almost always putting forth a credible performance and playing a role in a lot of good matches. I hope the ballot with Cornette was submitted by Cornette. And ranked him ahead of the Young Bucks and every Indy work with a springboard 630.

Freebirds definitely could've been repackaged as The Golden Showers.

Outstanding post with many truths and a nod to some of the subjectivity that will (and should) come into play here for everyone. I'm also very much a matches guy and can say with certainty that great matches influenced my ballot more than regular season consistency. There are some exceptions where a name ranked highly without a bulk of MOTYCs (looking at you, Arn & Regal), but they are notable outliers on my list.

I like this. No chance I'll be that dedicated but may try to at least put together a watchlist for those I haven't seen much of.

What was reported about Tanahashi?

Two totally straight dudes. And ridiculously charismatic. While underdog babyface Nakamura had some great moments, I can't imagine him playing another role.

Wow, cannot believe Amazing Red came in that low and it will be a travesty to see the names that come in ahead of him. Not quite sure how I'd fit him into my 100, but he'd certainly be in the next rung of candidates.

This whole Joey Ryan business definitely has me wanting to rank the rankings. We should be able to yay or any entire individual ballots

Sounds good, if not entirely fair to Flair. I ended up slotting him at #2, but wouldn't have loved going either direction with my top 2 (or 3, for that matter) so no huge regrets.

Ha how far from 1 did you let him slide?

He's outright said he tries to incorporate Freddy Mercury & MJ.

Say what? Haven't had the chance to listen yet, but that is amazing.

Thank god for that. Sometimes.

Tremendous near falls there. Is AJ actually going to headline a PPV against Roman?

His "appreciation of vodka" made him come across as an immature drunken asshole in his third book, which was almost unbearable to read as a result. Sucks, because I adore his first book and didn't mind his second either. Ha I just enjoy a vodka when I'm out to dinner and appreciate that he seems to take it straight. Not suggesting its a good way to spend the day.

What's the deal with Flair slapping his shoulders while strutting? I know I've seen him do it but can't place why it got such a pop.

I love that 3 consecutive posts timestamped within a minute of each other flushed Jericho and his botox down the toilet. Please disappear forever. So happy I left him off my GWE list, even if he does appreciate a vodka.

Those 90 seconds or so of AJ with Cesaro were better than anything he did with Jericho.

You know he's getting a push when they spend money on wardrobe, right?

They gave him a suit!

lol put that lazy eye back to work.

Outside of the Reigns personality transplant for a couple quick hits, this feels like business as usual.

Apparently Vince had this quarter hour in mind when he said the show would tank.
