Awards Moderator HarmonicGenerator Posted December 19, 2017 Awards Moderator Share Posted December 19, 2017 The story so far: The nomination threads are in the Awards forum, but for some reason nobody is able to post in there. A few people have sent me lists via PM, but it's just easier to have them in a thread, so here they are, positive, negative and British wrestling awards categories, in one thread. If the Awards forum gets sorted, this thread will probably close and they'll move over there, where they belong. But until then, the show must go on! We have discovered today that poll voting does work in the Awards forum even if you can't post in it. So when the voting itself begins in January, all voting threads will still be in the Awards forum. But for now, we're here in On Topic. Nominations are open for about two weeks from the time of posting this thread (19th December), at which point the proper voting will start - you probably have until around 2nd January. If your nominations change between now and then due to anything great happening (Bate/Dunne III on NXT this week, for instance), please post your changes in a separate post, otherwise I'll probably miss them. Please nominate up to three choices for each of the following awards, clearly stating the specific award your nominations are for. Wrestler of the Year Female Wrestler of the Year Match of the Year Wrestling Event of the Year Wrestling TV Show of the Year (this includes Youtube shows, original Network content and programmes, web shows, wrestling-based series or documentaries etc) Feud/Angle of the Year Moment of the Year Babyface of the Year Heel of the Year Funniest Moment of the Year Tag Team of the Year Breakout Star of the Year (who made the most impact this year? A debutant, someone who rose through the ranks, etc) Wrestling Podcast of the Year - Worst Wrestler of the Year Worst Match of the Year Biggest Letdown of the Year (what had the most potential only to turn out shit?) GTFO (they may not be the worst, but who do you just wish would go away and stay away?) Stupidest/Worst Moment of the Year - British Match of the Year British Wrestler of the Year British Wrestling Promotion of the Year Get nominating!

Awards Moderator HarmonicGenerator Posted December 19, 2017 Author Awards Moderator Share Posted December 19, 2017 Here are mine Wrestler of the Year: Neville - thought he had an incredible year. Carried the entire cruiserweight division on his back, showed masses of character, it's just a shame he disappeared for the final few months. AJ Styles Pete Dunne - from someone I'd never seen a year ago he's become one of my favourites to watch. Female Wrestler of the Year Alexa Bliss Peyton Royce Match of the Year Pete Dunne vs Tyler Bate, NXT Takeover Chicago New Day vs Usos, Hell In A Cell NXT War Games Wrestling Event of the Year UK Championship Tournament (Night 2) NXT Takeover Chicago Summerslam - the only one of the big shows this year where there wasn't really anything I strongly disliked! Wrestling TV Show of the Year NXT - it's not what it was but I still watch it every week, and enjoy it most of those GLOW Feud/Angle of the Year Samoa Joe vs Brock Lesnar - everything up until the bell rang was superb Aleister Black vs Velveteen Dream Jericho vs Owens / the Festival of Friendship Moment of the Year The Hardys return at WrestleMania - what a pop! "Why is my name on the list?" Ciampa turns on Gargano Babyface of the Year Tyler Bate Johnny Gargano Braun Strowman - he'll never be an underdog but because they've booked him so well he's now one of the best they have Heel of the Year Neville - I just love the adaptations he made in-ring and out to make himself more dislikeable Kevin Owens Elias - one of the only guys who can get booed by everybody. Doesn't matter if it's "go away" heat - it's still heat and it's 100 times better than half the crowd cheering him Funniest Moment of the Year Reigns the night after WrestleMania William Regal's little office non-sequiturs The Fashion Files (at least at the beginning) Tag Team of the Year Authors of Pain The Usos Breakout Star of the Year Braun Strowman Aleister Black - another guy I'd never seen a year ago, now one I look forward to seeing each time he appears Pete Dunne Wrestling Podcast of the Year E&C's Pod of Awesomeness - when they've got a good guest, they're great (side-note: I wish I could vote for SCG Radio here. I had some mental health issues early this year, and listening to a new episode of SCG each week was genuinely one of the only things that could relax me enough to get out of bed and carry on some mornings. The Monday Night War timelines calmed me down on my way to counselling. The Oaken Table helped me so much. But having to wait two months at a time for a new episode... I know they're busy but those are some long gaps between episodes. Too long to be able to vote for them here. Hoping they get back to a regular schedule in 2018) - Worst Wrestler of the Year Lio Rush - that clip of him no selling a powerbomb off a ladder through a table was the final straw. This year's Solomon Crowe. Bray Wyatt - I hated everything he did this year. The first of two wildly undeserving WWE Champions in 2017 Jinder Mahal - he's the other one. He's improved when he's been in there with the likes of Styles. But that title win was worse than JBL. WORSE THAN JBL I TELL YOU. Worst Match of the Year Undertaker vs Reigns - just sad to see how broken down Taker is now. Brock vs Strowman - a colossal letdown. Strowman survives being crushed by an ambulance, but one F5 will put him down?! House of Horrors - abominable Biggest Letdown of the Year Joe vs Brock's finish Strowman vs Brock's finish NXT stars on the main roster - mainly Nakamura, but also Roode, and Asuka a bit too GTFO Bray Wyatt Dolph Ziggler (Note: I almost put Brock here but the Styles match saved him!) Stupidest/Worst Moment of the Year The Wyatt/Orton projections at WrestleMania House of Horrors Jinder Mahal becomes WWE Champion - British Wrestler of the Year Pete Dunne Tyler Bate British Wrestling Promotion of the Year Pro Wrestling: EVE - great to see all the positive mainstream attention after GLOW came out.

Grecian Posted December 19, 2017 Share Posted December 19, 2017 With apologies that mine will be all WWE, as I don't watch any other companies! Wrestler of the Year - AJ Styles, The Usos, Braun Strowman. Female Wrestler of the Year - Alexa Bliss, Asuka, Match of the Year - Lesnar vs Strowman vs Joe vs Reigns (Summerslam), Pete Dunne vs Tyler Bate (Takeover, but I can't remember which one), Aleister Black vs the Velveteen Dream (TakeOver: War Games) Wrestling Event of the Year - TakeOver War Games, Royal Rumble (just because it's the Rumble), TLC (mainly for not having Bray Wyatt in a dress) Wrestling TV Show of the Year - Ride Along, NXT, (this includes Youtube shows, original Network content and programmes, web shows, wrestling-based series or documentaries etc) Feud/Angle of the Year - Usos vs New Day Moment of the Year - Hardys returning. AJ regaining the title in Manchester. An American crowd chanting 'UK!' at Dunne vs Bate. Babyface of the Year - AJ Styles, Heel of the Year - The Usos, The Miz Funniest Moment of the Year - Randy Orton's face after back-suplexing one of the Singhs onto the announce table and almost killing him. There has to be a gif of that somewhere. Tag Team of the Year - the Usos, New Day Breakout Star of the Year - Braun Strowman. Its not even close. Worst Wrestler of the Year - Jinder Mahal. Baron Corbin. Big Cass. Worst Match of the Year - Wyatt vs Orton (Mania), House of Horrors Biggest Letdown of the Year - Braun Strowman losing to one F5 in the long-awaited singles match vs Lesnar.

Just no more wrestling. Stupidest/Worst Moment of the Year Maggots on the canvas at Mania. Randy Orton selling maggots on the canvas. House of Horrors - specifically when Orton was bearded in the taped bit, then turns up clean shaven in the arena. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
