"Eight crazy bastards having a crazy bastard fight on top of a burning volcano!" Adam Blampied and his creative use of the English language made 2020 bearable.
Day 5 of recommending Adam my 10 lists that he should do sometime in the future: -12 most shocking kickouts in WWE history -10 worst NXT Takeover matches ever -15 WWE champions that should’ve held on to the belt WAY longer than they actually did -10 worst mistakes WWE made with Roman Reigns -10 best wrestling matches that lasted under 10 minutes -15 best in-ring wrestling debut matches of all time -Adam’s 10 most overrated WWE matches ever -10 Wrestlemania matches that should’ve been that years main event -12 worst sellers in wrestling history -10 reasons to look forward to wrestling in 2021 (I’ll be doing this until half of these ideas are done by Adam himself. Happy New Year, Adam. Love you lots!!)
One for each: 1. Taker kicking out of the SCM/Pedigree combo 2. Rey Mysterio 3. Having him keep all the shield stuff 4. Goldberg v Brock Lesnar 5. Dominic Mysterio 7. I don't know Adam's, but personally Hulk Hogan v Andre The Giant. Good storytelling, awful In-ring (as was most stuff back then) 8. Chris Jericho v Kevin Owens Wrestlemania 33 9. Hulk Hogan 10. FANS BEING BACK!!
More power to you bro, the kickouts one has been in my mind for a while aswell, but ill probably watch adam talk about top 10 types of paint aswell, hes just that good haha
Can I just say Adam, thank you. Thank you for making a return that received a bigger pop from me than Edge's did. Thank you for making 2020 bearable. Thank you for working hard on these lists and the booking videos. Thanks for making last year a little better, and here's hoping the next year is even greater.
I was about to call BS and ask who is this and what have you done with Adam when Firefly Funhouse wasn't the best match but then I reread the title of the video and it said specifically "wrestling" matches and I can't disagree
What are you on about? You even wrote the King of TAG WRESTLING. Which they obviously were because NXTs tag sucked balls this year. If they are the best singles is debatable but them being the best tag wise is Undisputed (pun intended).
Yeah, the fact that he put that dogshit Women's Wargames match above Bucks vs FTR at least just boggles the mind. Like, if he was going to put a Wargames match on the list, shouldn't it at least have been the Men's one, the one that _didn't_ blatantly disregard every basic rule of wrestling booking 101 by making the heels the underdogs then having them go over the faces clean?!
The aew tribute show would have to be on that list Not only because it was a beautiful tribute show from start to end, but it also was a night of just stellar wrestling, which in turn made the tributes all that more wonderful
Watching Walter get tagged in and chopping everyone in sight was like watching a kid tell his scary father about the bully in school and him beating the school staff, the lunch ladies and teachers until he finally found the kid
I would added Drew Mcintyre vs Roman Reigns at Survive Series. Watching this whole match I was like, this should be main event WrestleMania for the WWE championship.
One thing I felt like I wanted to say. I see that Adam says now after her amazing Women's Championship(s) run, that now WWE suddenly seems they got bored of Bayley. I would have to remind you that they used Bayley as the main champion (Charlotte for a few weeks to a month aside) from May 2019 to October 2020......over an entire year. Won the title at Money in The Bank when she was still in the babyface (kinda hugging not really) gimmick. Built up a heel run when Sasha came back to make her the side guard for Sasha transitioned her heel run to a new version of herself, then making herself the main Women's star of the company and Sasha being the back up for HER instead Carried the company with Sasha for a nonstop run of Smackdown, Raw, and NXT (here and there) appearances from after Mania to when they lost the titles to Nia Jax and Shayna Baszler on a constant basis So when she lost the title from Sasha and slows down to a Midcard role.....WWE is bored of her? Not keen to that logic. Loving the list so far, I just wanted to bring that up. (Whether people think Bayley's run was overrated or whatnot (I did hear that during that time when she and Sasha were doing their thing with all the titles), STILL, gotta give her major credit and respect for going on that long like that. MAJOR props to Bayley)
Roman Reigns vs Jey Uso, Men’s Royal Rumble Match, Undertaker vs AJ Styles, Roman Reigns vs Drew McIntyre, The Fiend vs John Cena, damn, there were a lot of great matches in WWE for 2020.
The dragunov vs WALTER one, by gowd almighty, just listening those sickening chops back and fourth, those stiff suplexes, the scars on both chests, damn men it gives a ride to the sickening part of this beautiful art, it drives you to the most aggressive side of yourself ( I can picture myself at times having that kind of aggression on my rival) It’s surreal and I guess that’s what wrestling at times can give us. Pd gotta admit that halloween havoc alongside Revolution my favorite shows of the year.
My Top 10 Favorite Matches Of 2020 1.Keith Lee Vs. Dominik Dijakovic(Takeover Portland) 2.Ilja Dragunov Vs. Walter(Oct 29, 2020) 3.Cody Rhodes Vs. Brodie Lee(Dog Collar Match) 4.Seth Rollins Vs. Kevin Owens(WrestleMania 36) 5.Daniel Bryan Vs. AJ Styles(June 12, 2020) 6.Roman Reigns Vs. Jey Uso(Clash Of Champions 2020) 7.Daniel Bryan Vs. The Fiend(Royal Rumble 2020) 8.Rhea Ripley Vs. Charlotte Flair Vs. Io Shirai(Takeover In Your House) 9.Seth Rollins Vs. Drew Mcintyre(Money In The Bank) 10.Randy Orton Vs. Edge(Backlash 2020)
That Royal Rumble Match was PURE GOLD! Also, the fact that 4 NXT matches made this list shows how NXT still had some good matches despite not having a crowd.
1) Young Bucks vs FTR - Full Gear 2)Will Ospreay vs Himromu Takahashi - Wrestle Kingdom 14 night 1 3) Okada vs Naito Wrestle Kingdom 14 night 2 These were match of the year candidates as well in my opinion.
That Okada VS Ibushi match made me not just a NJPW fan but put both of them in my top ten wrestlers in the world list instantly. I can't think of one match that made me realize how talented a wrestler was so convincingly as that war. I legit thought Ibushi snapped for a bit
When I watched Roman Vs Jey at COC Rush, I did not look away once and I actually gave it a round of applause from my own bed. It has been a REALLY long time since WWE has made me do that
The one list that actually made sense. Other than the no. 1 spot, which I think should be Walter vs dragonaov, this whole list was really unbiased. Thank you, for actually showing whatculture about listing things over showing favouritism.
I think it is same to assume that nearly everyone has forgotten about the instant classic IC title tournament finale between Styles and Bryan, because of it being a completely empty arena match...
Omega vs Page at Full Gear. This match is my personal match of the year. I was so conflicted because I like both of these guys, I didn't know who to cheer for.
Maybe because it's less than a week old so its still fresh, but Page & Silver & Reynolds vs MJF & Proud n' Powerful had everything and it made me tear up which few matches can make me do.
Adam, the Firefly Funhouse was my favorite match as well!! For a new list, you should talk about the best Managers in wrestling! So many beautiful heels to discuss!
This was great, reliving some of the best matches in WWE, big fan of both Sasha and Bayley and from the 2020 slimy awards their Hell in a Cell match was the number two best match of the year.
ADAM: Happy New Year!! What was your favourite match of 2020, let us know below!!
Roman vs Jey
It’s pretty hard to say
Fire fly fun house match but if you don’t count that as a match then Walter vs dragunov
Happy new year
Walter vs Dragunov. It made my teeth hurt.
I love that the timestamps just say the number instead of the match
YOU LOVE IT!
I’m glad they did that the spoilers when you click the description kill me
Yeah

3:18 is one way of describing WALTER 😂
It still feels unreal hearing “I’m Adam Blampied” before a list again
Won’t take it for granted again, the 🐐 of wrestling TH-cam for me
Easily the goat. Goat was whatculture from 2015-2017.
fully forgot imperium vs ue was in 2020...jesus christ
I swear it was 2019 that caught me off guard lol
Definitely one of my favorites!!!
It a great match
Understandable. After all, it was 15 years ago in January 2020.
"15 years ago, in January 2020"
It really does feel like that 😂

Day 5 of recommending Adam my 10 lists that he should do sometime in the future:
-12 most shocking kickouts in WWE history
-10 worst NXT Takeover matches ever
-15 WWE champions that should’ve held on to the belt WAY longer than they actually did
-10 worst mistakes WWE made with Roman Reigns
-10 best wrestling matches that lasted under 10 minutes
-15 best in-ring wrestling debut matches of all time
-Adam’s 10 most overrated WWE matches ever
-10 Wrestlemania matches that should’ve been that years main event
-12 worst sellers in wrestling history
-10 reasons to look forward to wrestling in 2021
(I’ll be doing this until half of these ideas are done by Adam himself. Happy New Year, Adam. Love you lots!!)
One for each:
1. Taker kicking out of the SCM/Pedigree combo
2. Rey Mysterio

@@ahmadirfan1397 "Top 10 paints to watch dry" and i would watch every second
The 10 worst takeover matches will probably mostly come from 2020 and the matches aren't even that bad lmao
@@iamhere3829 Just goes to show how great NXT always is
'Bunch of pricks aloominum vs Bunch of pricks aluminium' might be the single greatest thing Adam has ever said
And that's saying a LOT
For me, it’s between that or him calling The Undertaker Gnarly Charlie.
It's aluminum not aluminium.
@@scottnomore9489 Lol imagine being wrong. Can't relate.
Scott No More he pronounces it Aluminium
Dragunov vs Walter is my match of year for sure. A symphony of carnage and thoroughly enjoyable.
Not for Dragunov and WALTER.
It's Sunday. You know what that means.
"8 crazy bastards having a crazy bastard fight on top of a burning volcano"
Sounds like Tag Team Apocalypto to me.
Can't complain when the legend makes a top 10
Can I just say Adam, thank you.
Thank you for making a return that received a bigger pop from me than Edge's did.
Thank you for making 2020 bearable.
Thank you for working hard on these lists and the booking videos.
Thanks for making last year a little better, and here's hoping the next year is even greater.
Jesus it feels like Omega/Page vs Young Bucks was years ago but it was in February?!
Io Shirai "Genius of The Bin" 😂
I wonder if what #1 could be 🤔
Never mind he said it isn’t
My thought process exactly
Beautiful character development right here
I was about to call BS and ask who is this and what have you done with Adam when Firefly Funhouse wasn't the best match but then I reread the title of the video and it said specifically "wrestling" matches and I can't disagree
Adam: AEW has deposed NXT as the king of tag team wrestling
Also Adam: here is my list of 8 WWE matches and one AEW match, enjoy!
But the only standard tag match on the list was number 1 and belonged to AEW?
What are you on about? You even wrote the King of TAG WRESTLING. Which they obviously were because NXTs tag sucked balls this year. If they are the best singles is debatable but them being the best tag wise is Undisputed (pun intended).

Kota Ibushi vs. Minoru Suzuki was every bit as violent as I dreamed of.
Those two damn beautiful crazy bastards
"Simpsons" references:We got 'em!!!
Next week do Best Episodes on TV. Those that had everything: emotion, comedy, athleticism, feelings.
It's gotta be all the NXT and AEW special episodes and the Christmas day smackdown
The aew tribute show would have to be on that list
Not only because it was a beautiful tribute show from start to end, but it also was a night of just stellar wrestling, which in turn made the tributes all that more wonderful
great idea
Watching Walter get tagged in and chopping everyone in sight was like watching a kid tell his scary father about the bully in school and him beating the school staff, the lunch ladies and teachers until he finally found the kid
Reminds me of true detective when the dad beats up the bully
WALTER can murder EVERYONE with a single chop on every single roster in WWE
I would added Drew Mcintyre vs Roman Reigns at Survive Series. Watching this whole match I was like, this should be main event WrestleMania for the WWE championship.
I’m currently on a break from nxt, because it hasn’t been as good as we’re used to. But man, nxt is still such a great show.
Hey you reading this.
May your 2021 be full of happiness and success.
And yours, as well.
I love the “WWE biased comments.” Adam is truly an evil genius, taking the subtle approach by giving AEW the match of the year.
One thing I felt like I wanted to say.
I see that Adam says now after her amazing Women's Championship(s) run, that now WWE suddenly seems they got bored of Bayley. I would have to remind you that they used Bayley as the main champion (Charlotte for a few weeks to a month aside) from May 2019 to October 2020......over an entire year.
Won the title at Money in The Bank when she was still in the babyface (kinda hugging not really) gimmick.
Built up a heel run when Sasha came back to make her the side guard for Sasha
transitioned her heel run to a new version of herself, then making herself the main Women's star of the company and Sasha being the back up for HER instead
Carried the company with Sasha for a nonstop run of Smackdown, Raw, and NXT (here and there) appearances from after Mania to when they lost the titles to Nia Jax and Shayna Baszler on a constant basis
So when she lost the title from Sasha and slows down to a Midcard role.....WWE is bored of her?
Not keen to that logic.
Loving the list so far, I just wanted to bring that up.
(Whether people think Bayley's run was overrated or whatnot (I did hear that during that time when she and Sasha were doing their thing with all the titles), STILL, gotta give her major credit and respect for going on that long like that.
MAJOR props to Bayley)
Jey Uso vs Roman Reigns was Storytelling at its absolute finest 👌🏾
Imagine if we had full crowds for all these matches....
FTR Vs Bucks Was Way Better Than Broserweights Vs UE
Hmmm
"Bunch of pricks aluminum vs bunch of pricks aluminium" this might be the greatest sentence Adam has ever said, and that is hard to do.
Young Bucks Vs Kenny Omega and Hangman Adam Page AEW Revolution Happy New Year Adam
Roman Reigns vs Jey Uso, Men’s Royal Rumble Match, Undertaker vs AJ Styles, Roman Reigns vs Drew McIntyre, The Fiend vs John Cena, damn, there were a lot of great matches in WWE for 2020.
Wyatt vs Bryan at the rumble is the most underrated match from last year
The dragunov vs WALTER one, by gowd almighty, just listening those sickening chops back and fourth, those stiff suplexes, the scars on both chests, damn men it gives a ride to the sickening part of this beautiful art, it drives you to the most aggressive side of yourself ( I can picture myself at times having that kind of aggression on my rival)
It’s surreal and I guess that’s what wrestling at times can give us.
Pd gotta admit that halloween havoc alongside Revolution my favorite shows of the year.
Imagine if Dragunov vs WALTER had had a crowd?!..it was so brutal..it may gave hurt the match...but I LOVED this match
I still think that Dragunov should have won that match
They wanted to make him win when crowd is back
I had not seen Walter vs Dragunov, so I went to watch it after seeing this list.
...Walter is a serial killer outside kayfabe, isn't he? XD
2:28 Mother of God, that Simpsons reference. Take the week off, Adam.
Official: Make Adam an Audio book reader on wrestling books here
Loved to see Ibushi Okada get a mention. Hope Ibushi's finally getting his time to shine this year.
Match of the year for me. Can't wait till 8am (UK) tomorrow for the start of Wrestle Kingdom!
I got a feeling Ibushi's taking the gold on night 1, but then dropping to Jay on night 2. Let's hope not, it's Kota's time!
Thanks for the video and happy new year everyone 😀♥️☀️.
Not gonna lie I’m glad your back doing lists again Adam you helped me get through 2020 just a lil bit and for that I am thankful 🥲
'Steve Sax and his run-in with the law' 🤣 brilliant
Walter vs Dragunov made me physically ache
I was there for Imperium v. UE and I legit thought that was 2 years ago 🥴
Awesome Simpson's reference
"We talking softball"
Another Sunday another banger of a list from Adam. Thank you and keep em coming Blampied.
The 2 matches Matt Riddle & Sheamus had in 2020 were fn awesome!
Balor/O'Reilly reminded me of an ROH-type match for some reason. Definitely in my top 5 for 2020
Bunch of pricks aluminum vs bunch of pricks aluminium is still my favourite joke Adam has ever done 😂
Surprised The Greatest Wrestling Match Ever didn’t make the list lol
I'm glad that the Walter vs dragunov is getting the love it deserves.

9.Seth Rollins Vs. Drew Mcintyre(Money In The Bank)
10.Randy Orton Vs. Edge(Backlash 2020)
Just think a list full of NXT, and it already feels like Black and Gold was 15 years ago
That Royal Rumble Match was PURE GOLD! Also, the fact that 4 NXT matches made this list shows how NXT still had some good matches despite not having a crowd.
We're still waiting for an Adam's Brock Lesnar jokes compilation. They're genuinely the best thing on TH-cam
Steve Sax and his run-in with the law...haha, love it!!
Adam you're so funny! Thanks for the great content!
How tf was UE vs imperium in 2020. That feels like 10 years ago, dear god.
And judging from the comments I'm not the only one lol.
Babe wake up, new Blampied video
A couple of entries surprised me, but I like that quality in a list!
@ANDON HOWARD I think Adam makes the point that he doesn't watch much NJPW, so I guess it's inevitable that he's overlooked some of their stuff
@ANDON HOWARD making a fool of myself, as ever! xD
1) Young Bucks vs FTR - Full Gear
2)Will Ospreay vs Himromu Takahashi - Wrestle Kingdom 14 night 1
3) Okada vs Naito Wrestle Kingdom 14 night 2
These were match of the year candidates as well in my opinion.
That Okada VS Ibushi match made me not just a NJPW fan but put both of them in my top ten wrestlers in the world list instantly. I can't think of one match that made me realize how talented a wrestler was so convincingly as that war. I legit thought Ibushi snapped for a bit

You had me up until the number one spot, brother, but you make a good argument for each. Happy New Year!
Cry anti AEW
Goddam that 15 years ago in 2020 joke popped me good
Now that was a Top 10!! Bravo Wrestletalk and Adam
Steve Sax and his running with the law. 😂😂
I think the Broserweights being forced to break up was the worst wrestling related casualties of Covid19.
One of the worst yes
So surprised that Lee v Dijak from Portland didn't make this list!
I am so so so glad NXT UK showed up more than once. I love NXT UK and no one can ever change my mind.
Great list Adam! But my question is what was Cena smuggling in those shorts? A small child? Lol
Missing about 4 huge AEW matches. Pac vs Omega especially. Dog Collar Match, Stadium Stampede, FTR vs Young Bucks
My biggest exposure to NJPW is through the recent Yakuza games, and honestly? I should probably seek it out and watch it.
Sasha vs bayley felt rushed but it was worth the wait👍💯.
Love the talking softball reference!
The one list that actually made sense. Other than the no. 1 spot, which I think should be Walter vs dragonaov, this whole list was really unbiased. Thank you, for actually showing whatculture about listing things over showing favouritism.

Firefly Funhouse Inferno match was my favorite To see Fiend set fire in the ring made my heart smile 😁
You should do 10 best WRESTLERS of 2020
Dudes talking about Nxt is trash now but half of the list contains nxt matches🤦🏾♂️👀🤣
Kota Ibushi vs Okada was my favourite match of the year and I've watched it far too many times then I care to admit
That Talking Softball reference on number 9 👌
Omega vs Page at Full Gear. This match is my personal match of the year. I was so conflicted because I like both of these guys, I didn't know who to cheer for.
