Cash's flip is one of the top. 5 if not top 3 highlights in AEW history for me. The storytelling of just fists, and throwing that mindset out to try and finish the Bucks was amazing
Its so nice to hear people talking positively about aew, it isnt as hot as it was but its nowhere near as bad as the iwc make it out to be. Even the wwe trolls cant ruin this vid.
It's not even bad, it's really good, it's just getting back after the punk stuff and other controversies, the start was 2024 would be the beginning of a new era of aew
Can’t wait to see how positive people look back on this AEW time in a few years(wrestling as a whole tbh). Unbelievable string of PPVs and the rise of MJF, everything is always gloom in the IWC
Cody v Dustin. Brother v Brother. I watched this match after years of not being sure wrestling was for me anymore, and I stood up with goosebumps on my back, the hair on my arms standing tall and a tear running down my cheek. This for me is pro wrestling at its peak art form.
I see why Buck vs Omega & Page is where it is, and it is a top 3, but like Tempest said he was there for that match for me I was there when Page finally won vs Omega. The crowd pop was more than you'll ever know. It felt like not only Page won, but we won as well. Target Center that night was echoing with cheer, and overall we felt like kids again. That be number one for me, and two totally for me is the Lucha Bros v Bucks steel cage with thumb tack shoe. I showed that match to a friend that hasn't watch any wrestling really and never AEW, but that match made him a fan.
Exactly the same way. I may have understood everything they were saying, but their excitement bled through. It is what makes this format really good imo
I mean if nothing else I’d say they sold you on the matches to watch them Not saying you should watch AEW but the matches are good I do that for Noah, though that’s partly cause it’s SUPER hard to find it’s OG episodes before Misawa died
I think the 1st stadium stampede should be on that list. That match was just too to bottom fing incredible and so much fun to watch. Hangman on the horse, the 100 yard suplex… just everything about that match was perfect
@@diabeticman2194 Agreed Anyone that says otherwise is just either looking for excuses to hate AEW or takes things WAY to seriously to not understand WHY this match was so over the top ridiculous...it was to entertain and have FUN just for a short while so we can step away from the absolute MESS the ENTIRE WORLD WAS IN If people can't accept that then thats their problem
I absolutely loved this video - I don't watch a lot of AEW, but listening to the love and passion you had when talking about these matches was infectious
I'd say one of the reasons I can agree with Tempest on the Young Bucks vs Lucha Bros Cage match is because AEW has done what I, to this day, HATE about WWE's handling of the steel cage NO. ESCAPE. RULES. They went back to the original concept which is wrestlers go into cage, and wrestlers do not leave the cage until someone taps or is pinned. END OF STORY. Thats how the Horsemen did it. Thats how Dusty did it. Thats how Harley Race did it. Its one of the oldest factors from wrestling back then that I personally say NEVER needs to change. Update rules, match types, gimmicks, etc sure....but leave the Steel Cage match alone.
@@Scaramanga7 exactly! It also serves no one that wins it if they are the “technical” underdog in said match Case in point: I hardly took Bray more seriously in the fact his ONLY big win against Cena initially was via escaping the cage Especially since he was booked to be totally reliant on outside assistance via both Brodie and Erick STILL interfering and the stupid child singing to Cena with a deep voice over Yet Cena can win in a last man stand match and regular ones even with odds STILL stacked against him
As an honorable mention, I have to include Eddie vs Akiyama on the preshow of Full Gear 2022 (I was there). Yeah, it's not the greatest match I've ever seen, but Eddie living out his dream by wrestling Jun Akiyama...and the entire crowd screaming the three count, and then when it finished, I will not forget for a long time Eddie tearing up in the ring as everyone cheered for him and chanted his name... And then he proceeded to sell the PPV better in five minutes than TK/Excalibur had in weeks.
I can totally agree with this Especially when you consider Akiyama was taught to some degree by his favorite wrestler in Kawada Someone that he personally got to meet later on when he went to NJPW to both compete in the G1 and win one of their titles That match was very likely one of Eddie’s favorite I’d bet money on that
Very hard to do this list. Two matches I probably would've had on my list were Mox VS Brodie Lee and Mox VS Cassidy. But only probably, because it's really hard to rank some of these and all the matches you guys listed were bangers. Number 1 is definitely number 1.
My top three off the top of my head: 3. Danielson vs Saber Jr 2. Danielson vs MJF Iron Man match 1. Lucha Bros vs Young Bucks in the greatest match to take place in any kind of a cage, ever.
It's actually not that hard imo. And this is coming from a massive Kenny fan. At least three of Kenny's best matches in the company were on TV, not PPV and the title reign, while amazing, wasn't as good as it could had been because of his injuries.
I just need to say screw any tribalism. I don't really watch AEW (at all) but I am still more than happy to watch this list and then look up all these matches (some I had already seen!!) and just have a great evening of excellent wrestling.
I gotta say with Osprey vs omega. Oh god..... that Tiger Driver. The reaction Tempest had at the kick out at 1 was what I did to that tiger driver e cept I was almost disgusted but in a good way
In my heart, my favorite AEW match is still Moxley vs Omega at Full Gear 2019. There are better hardcore matches AEW has had, but this one is personal for me. I love Moxley, he’s my favorite wrestler, and his match with Omega solidified that love. It was the peak of his wrestling popularity and I long for Moxley to reach those heights again one day
Yeah it's a sad fact that the women's division hasn't had a chance shine on PPV. Been some great TV main events, Thunder Rosa vs Britt Baker as you mentioned, plus i'd give a shout out to Jamie Hayter vs Hikaru Shida, which was an awesome main event that gets forgotten cause it was in the final weeks of 2022.
I always enjoy listening to other wrestling fans perspective on wrestling content because in the end no wrestling promotion would be where it is today without the fans.
My top 10 off the top of my head: 10. Jon Moxley vs Orange Cassidy 9. MJF vs Bryan Danielson 8. Cody vs Dustin 7. Punk vs MJF 6. Lucha Bros vs Young Bucks 5. Kenny Omega vs Hangman Page 4. Bryan Danielson vs Zack Sabre Jr 3. Hangman and Kenny vs Young Bucks 2. Kenny Omega vs Will Ospreay 1. Adam Cole vs MJF [ ABSOLUTE FUCKING PERFECTION OF A MATCH ]
There's so many to choose from tbh; for me, MJF/Adam Cole from All In is the greatest AEW PPV matches, mainly because I was there and it was incredible. Other matches in my top 10 include: Young Bucks/Lucha Bros (All Out 2021), Bullet Club/Dudes With Attitude (FD 2022), Omega/Ospreay (FD 2023), Punk/MJF (Revolution 2022), Young Bucks/Omega & Page (Revolution 2020), MJF/Darby Allin (Full Gear 2021), Storm/Hayter (Full Gear 2022), Ospreay/Cassidy (FD 2022) and PAC/Cassidy (Revolution 2020). Almost put Stadium Stampede 1 and Dark Order + Hangman/Elite (All Out 2022) on here, gosh this is a hard list to do!
@@PureBlackDragon thanks man, definitely have a style preference but there’s so many bangers to choose from. Almost included Super Kliq/Jurassic Express (Full Gear 2021) as well, very underrated match from 2021 imo
1.Kenny & Hangman vs Young Bucks Revolution 2020 2.Cody vs Dustin Double or Nothing 2019 3.Kenny vs Ospreay Forbidden Door 2023 4.MJF vs Bryan Revolution 2023 5.Lucha bros vs Young Bucks All Out 2021 would be my top 5
Was in the building for revolution 2022 and man 100% agree on Eddie/Jericho and punk/mjf. I’m less stoked on punk due to obv reasons these days but realizing that punk was coming into miseria cantare and losing my MIND will stick with me forever Also regal showing up was comfortably the loudest pop of the night Jesus Christ
Don't end the year without a top 10 TLC of best matches 2023, that would be a disrespect to wrestling as a whole. also I know the list will be mostly Will Ospreay, Bryan Danielson, Zack SabreJunior and Gunther matches but still, we'd love to see it.
My favorite AEW match (and my favorite match of all time) is Swerve vs Hangman in the Texas Death match from Full Gear 2023. It’s brutal and awesome and disgusting but so much fun. Also I was there in the KIA Forum so I love it even more.
@@leeedwards9068 Why waste perfectly good oxygen exerting the effort to type such a vacuous non-point? If you don't like AEW, why are you watching this video?
I haven't watched everything and I went with ZSJ and Danielson being my number 1 and 2 in that order but that match is my favourite match of all time and it will be hard to knock it off that position
I would put Omega vs Moxley's exploding death match... minus the exploding part. Just pretend the ring did explode, and it's up there. If we can't pretend the ring properly exploded, then yeah, I can see why it didn't make the top 10.
For me there has to be FTR vs. Guns - Career vs. Titles on the list. All the teasing and playing around with social medai about FTR leaving, the Guns trying to get DQd, the near falls...hell that put my butt in the seat! Loved every second of it. And Punk vs. Darby, just because it brought me back to Wrestling after several years.
I don’t watch AEW, but I like hearing the opinions. From this, I think it would be a mistake for Will Osprey to go anywhere else than AEW when his contract is up, he seems to be the final boss now, and WWE would murder the Magic of his presence.
My 10, although I can't order them 😅 Eddie V Punk Darby V MJF (full gear 2021) Young Bucks V Hang Man/Omega (Rev 2020) Danielson V Mox (Regal debut!) Dustin V Cody MJF V Punk (dog collar) Joe V Punk (All In) Danielson V MJF (Iron Man) 1st Anarchy In The Arena Omega V Osprey (forbidden door)
Is there an official reason for the bleeps? Not complaining, really. Although, I would prefer it uncensored. Or, maybe an uncensored option. Is it a monitization thing? Is "monitization" a word? Not on my spellchecker...
I think you guys left out a LOT of great matches you guys left off moxley omega in the lights out match, moxley omega in that exploding barbed wire deathmatch, moxley hangman in that Texas death match, and shibata vs Zack Sabre jr vs Daniel Garcia vs orange Cassidy which is just a perfect match, I loved every second of that one, I also think house of black vs the elite was incredible as well
My list: 1. Bryan Danielson vs Zack Sabre Jr (WrestleDream 2023) 2. The Young Bucks vs Kenny Omega & Hangman Adam Page (Revolution 2020) 3. Kenny Omega vs Will Ospreay (Forbidden Door 2023) 4. CM Punk vs Eddie Kingston (Full Gear 2021) 5. Bryan Danielson vs Ricky Starks (All Out 2023) 6. Bryan Danielson vs MJF (Revolution 2023) 7. CM Punk vs MJF (Revolution 2022) 8. Anarchy in the Arena 1 (Double or Nothing 2022) 9. Jon Moxley vs Hangman Adam Page (Revolution 2023) 10. Cody Rhodes vs Dustin Rhodes (Double or Nothing 2019) Honourable mentions: Orange Cassidy vs Jon Moxley (All Out 2023), Orange Cassidy vs Pac (Revolution 2020), Darby Allin vs MJF (Full Gear 2021), FTR vs Young Bucks 1 (Full Gear 2020), Kenny Omega vs Hangman Adam Page (Full Gear 2021)
For me, the top 2 is 2. CM Punk vs. MJF at Revolution 2022- My all time favorite AEW match. I have watched it 5 times since and can't wrap my head around how incredible it was. 1. Young Bucks vs. Lucha Bros at All Out 2021- This was the best match on the first PPV I ever ordered, AEW or WWE. I absolutely adore this match, and have watched it back too many times as well
Sad to not see the Cody vs Mr. Brody Lee Dog collar match on here. I understand there is emotion around it that isn't about wrestling. But it's still a favorite of mine.
Also heavily agree with Pete's enthusiasm about Eddie Kingston, I was soooo happy for him when he finally beat Claudio (which on a non-PPV list, would easily be in my top picks). Dude is my new Mick Foley, I just want the best for him
I will always be a bit biased, but Cody vs. Dustin is my favorite AEW PPV match ever. Why? Because I was there. And y'all ain't lying when you say everyone in that crowd had a tear in their eye when Cody and Dustin hugged. Because I sure as hell did. I love Bucks vs. Kenny and Hangman. I love Punk vs. MJF. But nothing will ever beat Cody vs. Dustin at Double or Nothinh 2019 for me. Unless I see a better match in person, that is.
1. Ospreay v Omega (FB 2023) 2. Hangman + Omega v Young Bucks (Rev 2020) 3. Lucha Bros v Young Bucks (AO 2021) 4. MJF v Danielson (Rev 2022) 5. Cody v Dustin (DoN 2019) 6.

Im sorry is that judgment day 2000 slander. i wont have it. Its my favourite childhood wrestling memory and engrained the Undertaker as my favourite wrestler of all time. The chokeslams he delivers and the punch on vince after his weird turnaround walk are sublime. (Ignore the nonsensical dq after the bell had rung which im sure i can try and justify 😂)
It's the fact that Danielson's clinics with Omega and Hangman (both of them) are on TV... Mox-Darby for the world title was on TV. Jericho Jungle Boy was on TV!! The Mox-Omega cage match was on freaking TV!!!!
For me, Ospreay Omega at Forbidden Door, is my number 1, always will be, I was there, the building came unglued for that kick out at one Asking me to put 9 more in an order, May never be able to happen
With so much negativity and running down of everything in wrestling on TH-cam, it's so refreshing watching these guys just fawning over their favourite matches
This gave me an idea. I know these guys watched some of the worst matches ever on the wrestletalk podcast channel. Can we get the best match ever version? I just feel like it'll be fun
*You guys most definitely should do the best NXT takeover pay-per-views*
Or best nxt matches
Literally both
That's two separate lists
I second this!
100000%
Cash's flip is one of the top. 5 if not top 3 highlights in AEW history for me. The storytelling of just fists, and throwing that mindset out to try and finish the Bucks was amazing

So happy to see Cody vs Dustin on everyone's list. This match got me into AEW.
Facts!
ALL FACTS NO CAP.
Cody v Dustin.
Brother v Brother.
I watched this match after years of not being sure wrestling was for me anymore, and I stood up with goosebumps on my back, the hair on my arms standing tall and a tear running down my cheek. This for me is pro wrestling at its peak art form.
If you grew up with a brother close to you in age this match just hits different
The "I need my brother" line is amazing
That Stark and Danielson match made me think you could do an entire list of the greatest replacement matches.
FACTS.
AJ Styles vs Finn Balor at TLC 2017 comes to mind
@@Mr_Leo_DS apologies for the late reply. Just now saw your comment. Yeah that was an excellent match. Back when the Demon was treated with respect.
Tempest doing a Ross-Sapp impersonation ended me!
I see why Buck vs Omega & Page is where it is, and it is a top 3, but like Tempest said he was there for that match for me I was there when Page finally won vs Omega. The crowd pop was more than you'll ever know. It felt like not only Page won, but we won as well. Target Center that night was echoing with cheer, and overall we felt like kids again.

Exactly the same way. I may have understood everything they were saying, but their excitement bled through. It is what makes this format really good imo
I mean if nothing else I’d say they sold you on the matches to watch them
Not saying you should watch AEW but the matches are good
I do that for Noah, though that’s partly cause it’s SUPER hard to find it’s OG episodes before Misawa died
I think the 1st stadium stampede should be on that list. That match was just too to bottom fing incredible and so much fun to watch. Hangman on the horse, the 100 yard suplex… just everything about that match was perfect
The perfect match at the perfect time imho, peak sports entertainment. Jericho delivering the Judas Effect to the mascot gets me every time
@@diabeticman2194 Agreed
Anyone that says otherwise is just either looking for excuses to hate AEW or takes things WAY to seriously to not understand WHY this match was so over the top ridiculous...it was to entertain and have FUN just for a short while so we can step away from the absolute MESS the ENTIRE WORLD WAS IN

NO. ESCAPE. RULES.
They went back to the original concept which is wrestlers go into cage, and wrestlers do not leave the cage until someone taps or is pinned. END OF STORY.
Thats how the Horsemen did it. Thats how Dusty did it. Thats how Harley Race did it. Its one of the oldest factors from wrestling back then that I personally say NEVER needs to change. Update rules, match types, gimmicks, etc sure....but leave the Steel Cage match alone.
Agreed, winning by escape invalidates the very concept of a cage matches.
@@Scaramanga7 exactly!
It also serves no one that wins it if they are the “technical” underdog in said match
Case in point: I hardly took Bray more seriously in the fact his ONLY big win against Cena initially was via escaping the cage
Especially since he was booked to be totally reliant on outside assistance via both Brodie and Erick STILL interfering and the stupid child singing to Cena with a deep voice over
Yet Cena can win in a last man stand match and regular ones even with odds STILL stacked against him
As an honorable mention, I have to include Eddie vs Akiyama on the preshow of Full Gear 2022 (I was there). Yeah, it's not the greatest match I've ever seen, but Eddie living out his dream by wrestling Jun Akiyama...and the entire crowd screaming the three count, and then when it finished, I will not forget for a long time Eddie tearing up in the ring as everyone cheered for him and chanted his name...
And then he proceeded to sell the PPV better in five minutes than TK/Excalibur had in weeks.
I can totally agree with this
Especially when you consider Akiyama was taught to some degree by his favorite wrestler in Kawada

Very hard to do this list. Two matches I probably would've had on my list were Mox VS Brodie Lee and Mox VS Cassidy. But only probably, because it's really hard to rank some of these and all the matches you guys listed were bangers. Number 1 is definitely number 1.

My top three off the top of my head:
3. Danielson vs Saber Jr
2. Danielson vs MJF Iron Man match
1. Lucha Bros vs Young Bucks in the greatest match to take place in any kind of a cage, ever.
BEST CAGE MATCH EVER!!!!!!!!!
Genuinely admire the restraint to not just list all 10 as Kenny Omega matches. I would not have been so strong.
Lmao that's so true
It's actually not that hard imo. And this is coming from a massive Kenny fan. At least three of Kenny's best matches in the company were on TV, not PPV and the title reign, while amazing, wasn't as good as it could had been because of his injuries.
Glad to see Omega & Page vs Young Bucks high on lists - one of the best. maybe the best Tag Team match ever.
shame not to see Mox v Punk, there's stuff that overshadowed it, but the match itself is insane. Also weird to see 0 Mox matches at all, actually.
Mox isint the kind of wrestler to throw on barn burners of a match. He's just really good and is consistent at that
You guys are going to make me rewatch them all again... So happy in advance. ☺Thanks a bunch for this.

I think you guys left out a LOT of great matches you guys left off moxley omega in the lights out match, moxley omega in that exploding barbed wire deathmatch, moxley hangman in that Texas death match, and shibata vs Zack Sabre jr vs Daniel Garcia vs orange Cassidy which is just a perfect match, I loved every second of that one, I also think house of black vs the elite was incredible as well
This gets a thumbs up from me based on tempest shirt. GO PACK GO!!! (Even though we suck this year😂)
My list:
1. Bryan Danielson vs Zack Sabre Jr (WrestleDream 2023)
2. The Young Bucks vs Kenny Omega & Hangman Adam Page (Revolution 2020)
3. Kenny Omega vs Will Ospreay (Forbidden Door 2023)
4. CM Punk vs Eddie Kingston (Full Gear 2021)
5. Bryan Danielson vs Ricky Starks (All Out 2023)
6. Bryan Danielson vs MJF (Revolution 2023)
7. CM Punk vs MJF (Revolution 2022)
8. Anarchy in the Arena 1 (Double or Nothing 2022)
9. Jon Moxley vs Hangman Adam Page (Revolution 2023)
10. Cody Rhodes vs Dustin Rhodes (Double or Nothing 2019)
Honourable mentions: Orange Cassidy vs Jon Moxley (All Out 2023), Orange Cassidy vs Pac (Revolution 2020), Darby Allin vs MJF (Full Gear 2021), FTR vs Young Bucks 1 (Full Gear 2020), Kenny Omega vs Hangman Adam Page (Full Gear 2021)
For me, the top 2 is
2. CM Punk vs. MJF at Revolution 2022- My all time favorite AEW match. I have watched it 5 times since and can't wrap my head around how incredible it was.
1. Young Bucks vs. Lucha Bros at All Out 2021- This was the best match on the first PPV I ever ordered, AEW or WWE. I absolutely adore this match, and have watched it back too many times as well
My favs got to be punk vs jungle boy at all in London such high stakes
Sad to not see the Cody vs Mr. Brody Lee Dog collar match on here. I understand there is emotion around it that isn't about wrestling. But it's still a favorite of mine.
Also heavily agree with Pete's enthusiasm about Eddie Kingston, I was soooo happy for him when he finally beat Claudio (which on a non-PPV list, would easily be in my top picks). Dude is my new Mick Foley, I just want the best for him
I spent like 150 quid after this video. Buying all of the best AEW pay per views again to rewatch all these matches and more. Aew can be really magic
This video may as well be called "Those Guys on r/SCJerk Might Be Right"
Insane who I'm making out to memories of myself marking out. Like... Revolution 2020 man.
I usually listen to these without watching and I never have any idea what Tempest is talking about because he never says his match out loud lmao
I will always be a bit biased, but Cody vs. Dustin is my favorite AEW PPV match ever. Why? Because I was there. And y'all ain't lying when you say everyone in that crowd had a tear in their eye when Cody and Dustin hugged. Because I sure as hell did. I love Bucks vs. Kenny and Hangman. I love Punk vs. MJF. But nothing will ever beat Cody vs. Dustin at Double or Nothinh 2019 for me. Unless I see a better match in person, that is.
1. Ospreay v Omega (FB 2023)
2. Hangman + Omega v Young Bucks (Rev 2020)
3. Lucha Bros v Young Bucks (AO 2021)
4. MJF v Danielson (Rev 2022)
5. Cody v Dustin (DoN 2019)
6. Anarchy in the Arena (2022)
7. Omega v Mox Lights Out (FG 2019)
8. Lucha Bros v Young Bucks (AO 2019)
9. Ospreay v Cassidy (FD 2022)
10. FTR v Young Bucks (FG 2021)
HM: Stadium Stampede (DoN 2020)
to me, the best tag match EVER is still No Mercy 2002, but yeah, Omegage vs. Bucks is up there
(I didn't count anything that took place after Wrestledream 2023)
1. Hangman & Omega vs. Young Bucks - Revolution 2020
2. MJF vs. CM Punk - Revolution 2022
3. MJF vs. Bryan Danielson - Revolution 2023
4. Hangman vs. Moxley - Revolution 2023
5. FTR vs. Young Bucks - Full Gear 2020
6. Orange Cassidy vs. Jon Moxley - 2023
7. Hangman vs. Omega - Full Gear 2021
8. Pac vs. Omega - All Out 2019
9. Pac vs. Cassidy - Revolution 2020
10. Danielson vs. ZSJ - Wrestledream 2023
Tempest being a Blue Jays and Packers fan. Oh I pray for his blood pressure for these next few weeks
My list would have 3 Ospreay matches, dude is so damn good
Should do:
Top 10 WCW PPV main events
WWE TV Main Events
Need to do a TLC episode each of Best and Worst Wrestling Managers
Im sorry is that judgment day 2000 slander. i wont have it. Its my favourite childhood wrestling memory and engrained the Undertaker as my favourite wrestler of all time. The chokeslams he delivers and the punch on vince after his weird turnaround walk are sublime.
(Ignore the nonsensical dq after the bell had rung which im sure i can try and justify 😂)
Top 10 stables would be good.
Can you do top 10 greatest AEW Debut of all time?
The next tables list and chairs should be best nxt takeover matches would love that
Next ep sounds like theyre probably just going to bully Jericho a lot. While I might not fully agree, I understand lol
If All Out 2021 is AEW’s WrestleMania X-Seven, Revolution 2020 is AEW’s WrestleMania XIX
It's the fact that Danielson's clinics with Omega and Hangman (both of them) are on TV... Mox-Darby for the world title was on TV. Jericho Jungle Boy was on TV!! The Mox-Omega cage match was on freaking TV!!!!
Do a part 2!!
Best ppv main events
Nxt take overs
IC matches
Took me a bit to watch this but now I HAVE to see the top ten takeover matches
For me, Ospreay Omega at Forbidden Door, is my number 1, always will be, I was there, the building came unglued for that kick out at one
Asking me to put 9 more in an order, May never be able to happen
I'm a little upset they didn't put the first Stadium Stampede match
Awww tempest. As a fellow Packers fan, I apologize for our franchise.
Does anyone know a good way to go back and watch older AEW ppv matches?
Bilibili
Tempest in that Packers shirt GO PACK GO
PLS DO TOP 10 NXT TAKEOVER / PLEs MATCHES. That'll make me so happy 👍🙂
Whether you like AEW or not, they do have loads of classic matches.
This coming from a non-fan. They have a great portfolio
With so much negativity and running down of everything in wrestling on TH-cam, it's so refreshing watching these guys just fawning over their favourite matches
This gave me an idea. I know these guys watched some of the worst matches ever on the wrestletalk podcast channel. Can we get the best match ever version? I just feel like it'll be fun
am i insane if the omega/ospreay forbidden door match is my no 1?
