Top Wrestling MVPs 2020

Hi guys, How crazy has 2020 has been? With everything going on in the world, it seems as if 2021 couldn't come any sooner. However, even with all of this negativity, I think it's vital to try and find some positives.  Despite conditions making it hard for the wrestling industry, many companies have thrived during the pandemic. In particular, some wrestlers have managed to make the best out of a bad situation and continue trying to put on shows for fans whether in person or through streaming sites.  To mark the end of another year, I'm back with my annual wrestling MVP list of the wrestlers who have stood out this year. Just a quick note, most of the stuff I've watched this year is Japanese wrestling (NJPW, DDT and TJPW)! Yuka Sakazaki 2020 has been a great year for in the sense that I've had the time to fully get into Tokyo Joshi Pro Wrestling. For me, it's something I regret not doing earlier because it is full of some amazing wrestlers from Miu, Miyu Yamashita...

If I could, I would've reacted to that but it all seemed too good to even criticise! It was time to see if the main roster could stand up against NXT for one of the biggest PPV of the year! The Hardy Boyz and Jason Jordan v The Miz and Miztourage As much as I am upset that the IC title isn't being defended, I have to be grateful that The Miz (one of my favourites) even has a match. This was a good match, not a main card match but a very good match nevertheless. I didn't doubt that it would've been with legends like The Hardy's and The Miz - it ...

Whats up guys, The last few months of WWE Raw and Smackdown have had more ups and downs than a rollercoaster at Disney World. Yet, they decide to bring out something that is pretty much just spoofing the wrestling business and is an utter and complete joke and it's the best content they've released in years. How is it that something that was meant to be a one off thing with four episodes have come back for another series. Simple: It was everything that WWE shows aren't and people loved it for so many reasons! 1. It used the wider roster in bizzare ways When will you ever see the likes of The Ascension being used in nearly every single episode in a charismatic way. Southpaw Regional Wrestling has used superstars from Smackdown, Raw and even 205 Live (TJP represent) and it's letting those wrestlers who don't get much screen time shine. It shows us that Viktor, Konnor and Jason Jordan have the ability to be funny and have a personality, it shows the acting...
