TravJ1979 Posted June 12, 2014 Report Share Posted June 12, 2014 After watching everything on the ballot for 2003, these 14 matches make it to the next phase. (Chronological Order) Ki vs Styles, Zero1 1/5/2003Misawa vs Kobashi, NOAH 3/1/2003Kanemoto vs AKIRA, New Japan 3/29/2003Kobashi vs Honda, NOAH 4/13/2003Taue vs. Nagata - NOAH 6/6/2003Do Fixer vs M2K - Toryumon 6/29/2003KENTAFuji vs Liger & Murahama, NOAH 7/16/2003Akiyama vs Tenzan, New Japan 8/17/2003KENTAFuji vs Kanemaru & Hashi, NOAH 9/12/2003Kobashi vs Nagata, NOAH 9/12/2003KENTAFuji vs Juvi & Marvin, NOAH 11/1/2003Kawada vs Ogawa, Zero-One 12/14/2003Magnum Tokyo vs Milano Collection AT, Toryumon 12/16/2003Takaiwa & Hoshikawa vs Togo & Hidaka, Zero1 12/26/2003 It was hard to narrow down a smaller list for 2003. I'm not sure that is because of the quality or because I'm severely burnt out in watching Japanese wrestling at this point. My goal was to get my first draft for 2000-2004 by the end of June and I'd be on pace for the 12/31 deadline. As it is, I may have to resort to watching only bold and italic matches for the remaining years. Time to take a break. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Superstar Sleeze Posted July 6, 2014 Report Share Posted July 6, 2014 I loved, loved Kobashi/Ogawa. I am surprised it didn't make the cut for you. Other than that I agree with your assessment. You seem a little higher on KENTAFuji than I am, but they do bust a barnburner next year against Misawa/Ogawa. 2003 was the best year since the year 2000 even if it was just one promotion doing all the heavy lifting. 1.
