Invader Dave's Top 10 Matches of 2006

[invaderdave]

Because dammit, just naming the match of the year in the year end thread just isn't enough. Dammit.

Not a whole lot to it, just name the matches (doesn't have to be in order, though I'm gonna do it) what show it was on, and the company what held the show.

Sound good? Not really, but lets move on.

Here's mine;

1. Do-Fixer vs. Blood Generation - ROH, Supercard of Honor
2. Mike Quackenbush vs. Colt Cabana - IWA: MS, Ted Petty Invitational
3. Samoa Joe vs. Christopher Daniels - TNA, Thursday Night Debut
4. Jigsaw vs. Icarus - CHIKARA, Crushing Weight of Mainstream Ignorance
5. Mike Quackenbush vs. Claudio Castagnoli - IWA: MS, Ted Petty Invitational
6. BLK OUT vs. Up in Smoke - CHIKARA, Naked
7. Rob Van Dam vs. Kurt Angle - ECW, uh...Third Show?
8. The Great Muta vs. Tajiri - AJPW, Hiroshi Hase Retirement Show
9. Hardy Boyz vs. Londrick vs. MNM vs. The Blue Bloods - WWE, Armageddon
10. Homicide vs. Necro Butcher - ROH, Ring of Homicide

That's a great pick. A really underrated match.

[Ultimo Chocula]

Personally I liked the DoFixer vs The Embassy +1 better, but it's no biggie.

[KLRA]

KENTA vs. American Dragon, NOAH (the one in my sig)
Blood Generation vs. Generation Next, ROH, Better Than Our Best
American Dragon vs. Nigel, ROH, Unified

That's my Holy Trinity, three matches that are not better than each other.

[Spankymac is sick of the swiss]

My personal match of the year was Yoshiaki Yago and MIYAWAKI vs. KUDO and Mikami from TWGP night 1. The rest are difficult to list.

Not enough recognition for Nigel vs. Marufuji!

But if your top ten list for this year doesn't include at least three Danielson matches, then you're just not paying attention.

You do not call Masato Yoshino +1 you call that match what it is, DoFixer vs Masato Yoshino and some other guys

See, when Danielson wrestles somebody in multiple matches in a year, I don't consider them separate matches, I consider them all one big match that took place over the course of several locations.

What is Blood Generation?

Look it up.

But they were a big time stable in Dragon Gate.

We've known eachother for how long now, brotha?

[Baixo Astral]

Too long?

C'mon, I keed... I know Danielson isn't the flippy... he's just dull. But you won't give Jodie Fleisch his props, so...

Did Fleisch do anything this year?

And I'm always giving Fleisch props. And I thought you hated Fleisch, or am I going crazy in an insane world?

[Baixo Astral]

No, I was trapping you! And I win... Jodie Fleisch's proper respect is... none! For he's a burnout case, and can neither hit his finisher on his own or do the springboard flippy anymore... also, he nearly killed himself with his run up the wall move last weekend.

So, he's still doing stuff, emerging from backstage at nearly every show I'm at to underwhelm me...

[invaderdave]

So, I'm guessing his return from retirement did absolutely nothing for him...
