I feel like I should watch more Real Japan from 2010. I've only seen a handful of RJ matches from that year but they were mostly fun, and Tenryu/Sayama was fucking awesome. 2010 FUTEN was about as strong a year as there's been this decade, though. IWRG was really damn good in 2010 as well, but I thought FUTEN was so good that the second place promotion would be a fair bit behind.

 

Figured ARSION might've gotten a bit of love.

 

No CMLL in 1990 is probably where I'd disagree most. Having gone through most of the TV for it out there, it's definitely one of the strongest years any promotion had in the 90s.

2002 IWA-MS is an interesting/awesome pick.

 

I got into them after that -- 2004 when they were quite amazing and I would say they were my fav. indie that year.

 

What are some of the key matches from 2002 that you would recommend I check out?

this may seam odd picking just one guys stuff but i l;ike all of Punk Mid south stuff hes the resaon i got in ot mid south afther i saw him a t zero 1 show and said ot self this guy his better than most of the new gajin guys around then saw im in ROH afther the collb with NOAH and bying older dvd of ROH then i got on IWA after that cuase of punk and his stuff with hero i know that not 2002 but i ofund his stuff in 2002 that i have to good eother with the stuff around it constnat enough to get shucja high rating

 

so punks stuff in mid south in 02 is were i began
