Edge kidnapping Paul Bearer and the resulting saga from that would certainly be a nomination, in my opinion. What's funny about it is that previous to this, Edge was doing a gimmick where he hated things that were stupid.....and then he gets involved in this angle. If Abyss' 2010 doesn't win this thing it's a sham. Nothing else compares to him this year. Whether it was his role as big Eugene who was in love with Hulk Hogan, to him having super powers from a HOF ring, to carrying around a weapon that never actually got used.....it was a bad year for the guy. Not saying I disagree, but I think Abyss' gimmick now is actually a drastic improvement from the bumbling fool who (in 2008) believed that Beer Money was taking him to the Drunken Clam. |

TieGate: Daniel Bryan is fired for trying to make an angle realistic because someone complains that it's not PG, and it's a sheer stroke of luck that we get him back. This was a work. |

So this is what we have so far:
The Band: Nash & Hall are back...again! This time Nash needs a walker & Hall needs liver transplant number #109,325,653. Hall gets more liver transplants than Nathan Explosion! Of course this led to The Band winning the TNA World Tag Team Titles & losing said title because Hall goes on a bender which gets him fired.
Hulk Hogan Brings in His Friends: The Hulkster thought by bringing his friends radio star "Bubba The Love Sponge" & The Nasty Boys to help out TNA get big ratings. Instead The Nasty Boys stink up the ring while Bubba alienates TNA with his "F*** Haiti" comments that got his ass kicked by Awesome Kong. Hogan's friends get fired by TNA &...[glow=red,2,300]THIS JUST IN![/glow]
Bubba's been fired from his radio show!
John Cena's a part of "The Nexus": Nexus was one of the biggest success stories WWE has in 2010 so they thought...adding Cena to it would make it HUGE!
EV2.0: The stable so nice that WWE decided to kill it so TNA decided to bring it back from the dead...again! Once again the end result of market research.
Edge/Kane 2010 feud: A feud that had Edge kidnapping Paul Bearer & hilarity for Kane!
Abyss & the WWE Hall Of Fame Rings: So Abyss gets Hulk Hogan's WWE Hall Of Fame ring which turns him into a TNA version of the Green Lantern. Does that make Ric Flair the TNA version of Sinestro?
"THEY"/Immortal: So Abyss hypes that "THEY" are coming. And "THEY" is...The nWo version 3.0. Yeah that makes sense!
WWE NXT: WWE's version of "The Ultimate Fighter" turns into something comical with Michael Cole using a gong & immunity challenges involving carrying barrels & using wheelbarrows.
Heel Michael Cole: If Heel Jim Ross & Heel Tony Schiavone worked...
Lay-Cool as Co-Women's/Diva's Champions: Layla winning the Women's Title was okay, but Michelle McCool a.k.a. "Skeletor" was apparently pissed off when she won the title so we get TWO PEOPLE carrying ONE TITLE! Personally speaking I blame Skeletor for the death of the Women's Title. Also led to the fans calling Lay-Cool "Beautiful People" rip-offs.
The "Lockbox Showdown Match": The set-up looked like "Feast or Fired" but it turned into TNA's version of "Deal Or No Deal". Ending we have an Angelina Love/Tara clusterf*** & Daffney's awkward stripping with Lacey Von Erich bouncing around for no reason.
TNA's new World Title: Debuted as a title for Jeff Hardy as a Gimmick Belt. The belt drew immediate hate from fans. The belt has many nicknames from "The Don...Don Mason Belt" to "The TNA Diva's Title". I think it's a Power Ranger accessory myself.
Jerry Springer on RAW: Creating a fake pregnancy story with The Bellas while scaring Jerry Springer...classic!
The 10/14/10 episode of TNA Impact: An hour of basically Immortal & Fourtune saying how great they are. And when there's some actual wrestling it's Tara laying down for Madison Rayne! NICE!
The "Stand Up For WWE Campaign": Even though the campaign recently received an award for best use of The Social Networks. Everybody from the average fan to the Connecticut Democratic Committee saw it as Vinnie Mac helping out his wife, ex-CEO & U.S. Senate Candidate Linda McMahon, to get her to win the election. Even though the entire country didn't hear the anti-WWE comments during the election.
The Swagger Soaring Eagle: Long-lost relative of The Gobbeldygooker? It fits since Guerreros are in both!
The Firing of Daniel Bryan: Daniel Bryan gets fired because, according to Bryan himself, WWE takes their PG violence seriously when Bryan gets fired for choking out Justin Roberts out of all things...a tie!
Anything else?

TieGate: Daniel Bryan is fired for trying to make an angle realistic because someone complains that it's not PG, and it's a sheer stroke of luck that we get him back. I know there's about 136 theories on what actually was going on, but if we take the "He was fired because a sponsor complained" angle of the story, it can't be the Gooker. Nobody scripted Daniel Bryan to be fired, it was outside pressure. Plus, he was back like 4 weeks later. If somebody getting fired is up for the Gooker, it's Nikki Roxx. |

"Anything else? "
Wrestler Youtube videos:
Specifically the one of Matt Hardy eating grapes, and the one of him and his brother Jeff drunk.
And the Hogan ones with him on the toilet and the one exposing his *ahem*.

looking at all this, it really has been quite a year.
Another part of the "they" thing as a whole, RVD is stripped of the title due to injury, yet returns good as new before they even finish the tournament to replace him. Insanity! TNA 2010 has just a plethora of things to choose from, and I like TNA. But really, they could start with January 4th and do a running commentary to the present. Oh! How can I forget? A personal favorite...Homicide struggles to escape the cage of doom!
For WWE's contribution, I'd say the NXT stuff and heelishness of Michael Cole (which I actually enjoy. Some things are so bad they're awesome!)

TNA Hardcore Justice: Hey, who cares about a young and incredibly talented roster? Let's put Sabu in the main event and hope he doesn't screw up too badly instead of making a name for ourselves and just trying to rely on a wrestling company that died ten years ago due to incompetence and shoddy accounting!

Abyss the Hogan Mark: This could give TNA's first winner. Abyss is saved by Hulk Hogan from 7 people, and Hogan says he wants to see the monster back. He gives him the ring to show his confidence. Then, Abyss turns into Abyss Hogan and Abyssamania runs wild.
TNA Lockbox challenge: The women opened their boxes and Tara gets her spider back, while Angelina Love opens her box and gets a title. Kinda like how WWE works.
Bubba the Love Sponge: Ignoring his antics outside of TNA, does some bad interviewing and interferes in a match by standing there and looking at somebody.
Edge abducts Paul Bearer: Surely, when it started in England, customs would have wondered about this.
NXT Season 3: Potentially the worst wrestling television show in the history of pro wrestling.
NXT Season 2 finish: Alex Riley attacks a guy he's supposed to be fighting with, Titus O'Neil no-sells MVP's boot, and we witness at this very moment, right here, as we stand, the Genesis of McGillicutty!
TNA Impact January 4th: Add the whole episode. Starts off with a dq finish in a cage match, Homicide not being able to escape, Hogan saying he was in the back all day when he just arrived in the arena, short meaningless matches, a good match where Hogan had to give his approval, until he had more important things to do and stood there while Mick Foley got beat up. Also to RD, I suggest watching Botchamania 154.
McGrubber: McGrubber comes in and blows up R-Truth, among other dumb antics.
The A-Team: Ted Dibiase's career goes down the drain as he participates in an incredibly ridiculous "mystery" which he has yet to fully recover from.

TNA 2010.
It had the fight over a WWE Hall of Fame ring.
Bubba the Love Sponge was hired and got more airtime than wrestlers who deserve it, also his involvement in TNA and his "F*** Haiti" comments ultimately led to Kong's physical altercation and inevitable release.
The Band, otherwise known as the latest TNA attempt at an NWO ripoff.
Lockbox Challenge.
10/14 Impact episode which featured very little in ring action at all, but was in great supply of Hogan/Bischoff promos.
The entire Hardcore Justice fiasco. I mean seriously, they couldn't SAY ECW... they couldn't show ECW footage.... why even hold the show?
There's more, plenty more. But these are the obvious ones.

It can only be one of two things...
NXT
TNA 2010 ("We're taking over Mondays", Bi-sexual rapists teaming with retarded mid-carders, THERrrrrE HERrrrre, Abyss-o-mania, Bubba the Love Sponge, Roxxi. All of it).
The latter should win definately. At least NXT led to something that was interesting for a period of time, and was largely inoffensive. When you think of the optimism that surrounded that first Monday iMPACT, it is incredible how they've managed to piss that up the wall with often horrible television.
