So that completes the Top 100. I've made some slight changes to the match order to make everything a little more coherent. I could see making some changes depending on whether more NJPW or CMLL gets uploaded. Or when I decide to break the bank and buy a bunch of Lucha TV from Lynch... there's almost no Promo Azteca online.

Man, what a great year for wrestling this was. Total wild ride to check out all this stuff.
