Male Superstar: Drew McIntyre Female Superstar: Bayley Match of the year: Cody vs Roman Breakout Male: Chad Gable Breakout Female: Tiffany Straton Return of the Year: The Rock Feud: Drew and CM Punk Debut of the Year: Wyatt Sicks Holy Shit Moment: Undertaker NXT Superstar: Trick Worst Match: Uso’s by a landslide
I agree pretty much completely. I think I’d lean Bron Breakker over Gable based on MY definition of “breakout” and I think Usos isn’t the WORST match but is the most disappointing.
Wyatt Sicks debut was my holy shit moment, them using Bray's theme and then the camera panning to guerilla with everyone laid out and each member revealed one by one, what a debut that was
Liv Morgan is undoubtedly the female superstar of the year. She was runner up in the royal rumble for a second time. Amazing performance at elimination chamber (runner up as well) not to mention she eliminated Bianca and Tiffany, runner up in the battle royal to crown new women’s heavyweight champ. Amazing performance there as well. Finally winning the championship from Becky and sending her into “early retirement”, “injuring Rhea Ripley”, best storyline with Dominick, the judgment day and Rhea asides from CM Punk and Drew, great character work, turning heel, good title defense again Zelina on raw, steel cage match with Becky.
2023 was the best year of all time to me and it’s because in 2023 that’s when I technically started watching even though I started watching 2021 but 2023 was the most important year to me so I thought it was the best
@@royorange9691yes, she's still a champion and according to PWI, the average star rating of her matches for the last 6 months is 4.25 stars. Also, she's no.1 on ESPN's Top 10 women's wrestlers of 2024.
No cena shouldn't be anywhere near the title he's finished being a champion winning the wwe title 13 times world heavyweight 3 times is enough. BTW that means he's Not a real 16 times wwe champion but wwe cheats adds both, in that case Ric Flair is a 20+ champion
@TheUniversalGamer87 I could see the argument for him not being a world champ but he definitely should be booked to win the ic champ to be grand slam champion to round out his career
male star - cody/drew/jey female star - bayley or liv moty - cody vs roman breakout male - priest breakout female - tiffy/chelsea return - rock feud - drew/punk debut - wyatt 6 holy shit - rock making cody bleed backstage nxt star - trick worst match - usos
Took an afternoon nap until 7pm and checked to see if Santi posted his daily video yet. There was no video uploaded yet but a few minutes later here it is. Santi never fails us!
My holy shit moment had to be when Rock made his surprise appearance on Raw - March 25th (might be wrong date - Chicago. Prior to 2024, My Dad and I weren't as close due to me just growing up and being busy with school. On January, we saw that Royal Rumble was live on Peacock and watched it for nostalgia (I used to be a huge WWE fan when i was younger). After that, we both got into wrestling again and he surprised me with two tickets to see Raw live in Chicago. We joked around about getting to see Rock because he was my favorite wrestler growing up and we wanted to see the "Final Boss" form irl. Since it was said he was coming to next Raws show, I was trying to lower his expectations so he wouldnt be disappointed (Mind you this was the 2nd to last raw before wrestlemania). The reaction we both had when we heard The Rocks theme was hillarious 😂. I will never forget that moment because it holds a special place in my heart. My dad and I are still laughing at the screams we made that night 😂
Predicting the winners of categories tell me if I’m right! Match of the year: Roman vs Cody Male superstar of the year: Cody obviously if not Drew Female superstar of the year: Becky? In terms of like being a MVP Iyo. Not Rhea she wasn’t really here much. Return of the year: Rock? I don’t remember anyone else Debut of the year: Bron or Jacob Breakout superstar: Tiffany or Bron Holy Sh*t moment of the year: Something in the Drew and Punk beef or Rhea vacating Feud of the year: Drew vs Punk NXT superstar of the year: Roxanne Ngl Worst match of the year: Idk?
Santi hit the nail on the head talking about the final boss rock. He was literally must see television and it was only a few months ago but damn it already feels nostalgic 😢
roman, cody, rollins, drew, punk, becky, bayley, rhea, gable, gunther, sami, orton, kevin owens, miz, truth, waller, la knight, melo, woods, kingston, jey uso, jimmy uso, balor, zelina, liv, chelsea, sheamus, ludwig kaiser, tiffany stratton, charlotte, logan paul, that looks like a lot more than 10 people with mic skills
@Pann882 rop guys not mid cars no roman has mid mic skills drew finally getting star status punk legend becky is okay really year when nose got broken jey is mid knight is good with script like most of stars yes roman. And the queen is the queen
@@nickster1135 i just had an aneurism reading ts bro 😭 then i had an aneurysm again when i saw that u said roman, jey and becky are mid or ok on the mic 🤣🤣🤦♂️
For me I'm gonna go: MATCH: Cody & Roman at 'Mania by a landslide. MALE: Gunther is the single one person who when I see something on TH-cam of him, I will click on it first before anything else. FEMALE: I know people still aren't feeling her but honestly Nia for me. She's been consistently on TV, has improved so much, and always entertains me. RETURN: The Rock. No debate. DEBUT: Agree with the Wyatt Sicks. So unique and so special. BREAKOUT: I'm gonna say Damian Priest. I saw so much discussion of people thinking he would fail his cash in because they don't see him being a World Champion. But he's had solid matches and is good on the mic and I like the character work he's been doing. Holy shit: Cody & Roman already won best match so they can sit this one out. I have rewatched Heyman getting attacked by new Bloodline SO many times. So well executed and a general shocker. FEUD: Punk & McIntyre next question. NXT: Oba Femi is a literal beast and he better win a World Title the second he is on the main roster. WORST MATCH: Hello The Usos.
I think hearing the Undertakers bell ring was so unexpected since we all were expecting stone cold song to hit. I never thought I would hear Undertakers bell to ring again and catch me off guard, but I was completely caught off guard and it was took me back to being a kid and hearing it on smackdown. GOAT
Match of the Year: Roman vs Cody at WM40 Male Superstar of the Year: Gunther Female Superstar of the Year: Tiffany Stratton Return of the Year: Undertaker at WM40 Debut of the Year: Wyatt Sicks Breakout Superstar of the Year: Bron Breakker Holy Shit Moment of the Year: Wyatt Sicks debut Feud of the Year: Punk vs McIntyre NXT Superstar of the Year: Oba Femi Worst Match of the Year: Jimmy vs Jey at WM40
I also said “HOLY SHIT” when Taker’s gong hit. The list is a great mix of moments too though. Cena’s entrance was also amazing, Cody pinning Roman, Punk attacking Drew & Damien’s cash in, Bron’s attack on Ricochet filled with legitimately concerning spots, Bayley getting back on top, Punk’s promo on Drew at the draft, Jade’s debut, Jordynne Grace, Joe Hendry, Rhea’s return, poaching Ethan Page from AEW was underrated, Drew’s attack on Punk, Chad Gable heel turn, Sami pinning Gunther, Debut of Tama Tonga, Debut of Jacob Fatu, “Roman isnt coming back”, “You are NOT MY TRIBAL CHIEF!” followed by the triple powerbomb on the announcers desk, the double german to Bronson and Sami in the triple threat IC match with, Tiffy in the Bank, frankly the entire women’s MITB match, Trick losing the belt after KOing Page, and my personal winner the Wyatt’s debut. God Trip has been cooking this year! Now imagine, we will probably get the returns of Roman, Becky, Asuka, Charlotte, Jimmy, & Carmella all this year. This is such a great time for wrestling!
My opinion Match: Cody v Roman Male star: Drew McIntyre Female star: Liv Morgan Return of the year: The Wyatt Sick6 Debut: Jacob Fatu Breakout: Chad gable’ Bron Braker or Tiffany Stratton Sh1t moment: Roman v Cody just the whole end of the match was insane Fued: Drew v Punk NXT star: Oba Worst match: Jey v Jimmy
The holy shit moment for me was the wrestlemania press conference. idk how so many of yall overlooked that like it felt so fucking authentic from everyone
Male Superstar: Drew McIntyre Female Superstar: Liv Morgan Match of the year: Cody vs AJ "I quit" Breakout Male: Ilja Dragonov Breakout Female: Tiffany Straton Return of the Year: N/A (i'm a newish fan, so i have no opinion here) Feud: Drew and CM Punk Debut of the Year: Wyatt Sicks Holy Shit Moment: Punk screws Drew in Scotland NXT Superstar: Oba Femi Worst Match: Sammi Zayne vs. Bron Breaker at Money in the Bank.
1. Match of the Year: Roman V Cody (one of the greatest moments in wrestling imo) 2. Male Wrestler of the Year: Drew McIntyre (obvious) 3. Female Wrestler of the Year: Tiffany Stratton (not close) 4. Return of the Year: The Rock (aside from the "FINAL BOSS" added to his entrance, this was fkn awesome) 5. Debut of the Year: Jacob Fatu (by default?) 6. Breakout Wrestler of the Year: Drew McIntyre (man has been on FIRE all year, legendary stuff) 7. Most Improved Wrestler: Damian Priest (from being seen as a paper champion to now a solidified champion and someone I can actually see being credibly in the main event picture, man has really improved and deserves the recognition) 8. Holy SHIT Moment of the Year: Roman V Cody (All the returns in the span of like 3 minutes was crazy) 9. Feud of the Year: CM Punk V Drew McIntyre (obvious) 10. NXT Wrestler of the Year: Trick Williams (Roxanne and Femi were up there too) 11. Worst Match of the Year: Jimmy V Jey at Mania (hard pick, Sami V Gable was up there too) ALSO: I'm not sure what to call it but Paul Heyman has been amazing all year! Def elevated the Bloodline storyline and helped keep it afloat with Roman, Jimmy, and Jey shifting aside now.
Mine: Male Superstar of the year: Drew McIntyre Female superstar of the year: Nia Jax Match of the year: Aj Styles Vs Cody Rhodes Backlash Return of the year: rock Debut of the year: Wyatt sicks Holy Shit moment: John Cena retirement Break out superstar: Bron breakker Feud of the year: punk and Drew Nxt super star of the year: oba femi Worst match of the year: Seth vs priest mitb (that one botched pin ruined it)
Bo Dallas is the next mega star! That entire section of Raw with Bo was insane it literally felt like Bray was there he has done a great job so far honoring him and to be expected no one else could have done this.
Match of the year: Roman vs Cody wrestlemania xl Male superstar of the year: Drew (this is the best of him we’ve ever seen) Female superstar of the year: tiffy (she has been amazing in the royal rumble, elimination chamber, backlash, mitb and is now your miss mitb Return of the year: the rock Debut of the year: Jacob fatu (he is absolutely unstoppable) Feud of the year: cm punk vs Drew Breakout superstar of the year: Bron Holy sh*t moment of the year: when undertaker’s music hit *gong* (we all expected Austin) Worst match of the year: jey vs jimmy wrestlemania xl

I mentioned this on the Patreon, but it isn't a gong for Undertaker's theme. It's a bell. A gong is the big, cymbal-like instrument from East Asia. It's a bell because of that old "for whom the bell tolls" deal.
Shoot since you mentioned it. The shield music playing actually had me say “holy shit they got dean ambrose for this?!” It was the largest set of blue balls wwe has handed me to this day as dean is my fav of the shield members…. But for those few seconds….I got suckered in!
What’s great about this year is many of the stars are coming back from IL. Many of them have missed 3+ months. List: -CM Punk -Charlotte Flair -Rhea Ripley -Seth Rollins -Jimmy Uso -Big E -Viking Raiders -Alexa Bliss (not injured but maternity list) -No Roman for 4 months (just chillin)
jacob fatu could be argued for debut of the year bc of what he’s actually done but the wyatt sicks is also a great selection bc of how unique and crazy the segment was
1. Roman vs Cody or Seth vs Drew at Mania 2. Cody Rhodes 3. Bayley 4. The Rock 5. Wyatt Sicks 6. Chad Gable 7. The Rock heel turn, Cena retirement announcement, or Damian cash in 8. CM Punk vs Drew McIntyre 9. Trick Williams 10. Jey Uso vs Jimmy Uso it's an easy choice
Male Superstar: Cody Rhodes (He already has 2 MOTY contenders. He won back to back royal rumbles. He main evented back to back. Was the most important part of one of the best main events of all time. Female Superstar: Iyo Sky Breakout Male: Either Chad Gable or Drew McIntyre Breakout Female: Tiffy Best feud: Cody/Seth vs. Rock/Roman for the first 4 months, and Drew vs. Punk since then. Best Match: Cody vs. Roman Worst Match: Jey vs. Jimmy Best Return: The Rock Best Debut: Wyatt Sicks.
jey uso should be male of the year he has been on his own for the first time to start a year and he has been doing pretty well and his fan base is absolutely ridiculous and his rise is just great to see
I will say, having Undertaker substitute for Stone Cold worked, but I like to think it should've been Triple H to take out the Rock, calling back to the smackdown after the WrestleMania kick-off event when Triple H talked about who had the authority.
My holy shit moment of the year was just seeing Cody win the big one. I think we all knew he was going to win, but it was such a crazy moment to see WWE finally pull the trigger.

Cool
You look like Cody's girl

Its crazy but the Three best feuds of the year havn't even had matches yet. 1. Drew vs Punk 2. Seth vs Punk 3. Liv vs Rhea
Male Superstar: Drew McIntyre
Female Superstar: Bayley

Breakout Male: Chad Gable
Breakout Female: Tiffany Straton
Return of the Year: The Rock

Worst Match: Uso’s by a landslide
I agree pretty much completely. I think I’d lean Bron Breakker over Gable based on MY definition of “breakout” and I think Usos isn’t the WORST match but is the most disappointing.
@@cyynical3299 that’s fair on the usos being most disappointed. Could have been great with the moment, stage and everything involved storyline
Breakout Damian Priest for me
Man now I started to appreciate chad gable
I personally disagree with the usos being the worst match, it’s still better than the 1,000 random 2 minute women’s tag matches
Wyatt Sicks debut was my holy shit moment, them using Bray's theme and then the camera panning to guerilla with everyone laid out and each member revealed one by one, what a debut that was
None of that lame shit is landing for me. Then again, I couldn’t stand Bray either.
@@dabearcubwhoah, who’s mr cool guy here?
@@dabearcubthe common denominator in all of this is you, maybe you're the problem?
My only issue is that it eventually said when they would be there and you even knew before Raw
@@hom-sha-bom nah, the common denominator is the lame spook gimmick…sorry I hurt your feelings
Love to hear Drew McIntyre getting his flowers, he’s been nothing short of phenomenal
Liv Morgan is undoubtedly the female superstar of the year. She was runner up in the royal rumble for a second time. Amazing performance at elimination chamber (runner up as well) not to mention she eliminated Bianca and Tiffany, runner up in the battle royal to crown new women’s heavyweight champ.

Heyman and Punk are definitely gonna be here 😂😂
Day 25 of asking Santi to make a best and worst ple of the year vid (2004-2024)😊
Worse PLE is easily Money in the Bank or maybe the Draft.
@@ralphmarbler27the draft is not a ple

2023 was the best year of all time to me and it’s because in 2023 that’s when I technically started watching even though I started watching 2021 but 2023 was the most important year to me so I thought it was the best
Liv Morgan is definitely the female superstar of the year. Bayley just kind of died after wrestlemania while Liv is having the run of a lifetime.
Oh wait bayley is a champion... I almost forgot about her
Have you seen how good Tiffany Stratton has been?
What about Roxanne Perez ?
@@royorange9691yes, she's still a champion and according to PWI, the average star rating of her matches for the last 6 months is 4.25 stars. Also, she's no.1 on ESPN's Top 10 women's wrestlers of 2024.
day 41 of suggesting Santi to tier rank every current superstar's finisher or the best finisher of every year (no repeats)
The miz needs one last solo championship run, and should face Cena at bad blood.
Hell naw
No cena shouldn't be anywhere near the title he's finished being a champion winning the wwe title 13 times world heavyweight 3 times is enough. BTW that means he's Not a real 16 times wwe champion but wwe cheats adds both, in that case Ric Flair is a 20+ champion

@@TheUniversalGamer87Record books need to be updated
Drew vs punk going to get an award for match of the year soon

debut - wyatt 6
holy shit - rock making cody bleed backstage
nxt star - trick

Took an afternoon nap until 7pm and checked to see if Santi posted his daily video yet. There was no video uploaded yet but a few minutes later here it is. Santi never fails us!
holy shit moment for me is seeing the wyats sicks debut tbh i did not expect it to be that brutally good
For me my holy shit moment might be recentincy bias but the destruction of paul Heyman it was something I never thought I see especially at his age

What about promo/segment of the year?
Predicting the winners of categories tell me if I’m right!
Match of the year: Roman vs Cody
Male superstar of the year: Cody obviously if not Drew
Female superstar of the year: Becky? In terms of like being a MVP Iyo. Not Rhea she wasn’t really here much.

Feud of the year: Drew vs Punk
NXT superstar of the year: Roxanne Ngl
Worst match of the year: Idk?
Pretty spot on ngl
Worst match of the year is probably Uso vs Uso
Roxanne ain’t NXT star of the year. It gotta be Oba
Bro imo the wyatt sicks is the best debut of 2024
@@Jaxsonakacheetah2 I wasn’t thinking of them counting as a debut but if I did I would have put them
Santi hit the nail on the head talking about the final boss rock. He was literally must see television and it was only a few months ago but damn it already feels nostalgic 😢
2001 is the best year to me half the roster had mic skills today, maybe 10
roman, cody, rollins, drew, punk, becky, bayley, rhea, gable, gunther, sami, orton, kevin owens, miz, truth, waller, la knight, melo, woods, kingston, jey uso, jimmy uso, balor, zelina, liv, chelsea, sheamus, ludwig kaiser, tiffany stratton, charlotte, logan paul, that looks like a lot more than 10 people with mic skills

"Breakout" refers to people who are in their rookie year.
It should be closer to that yet people don't understand. They pick their favorites.
2004 vs 2014 2024 superstar WWE
Should have had segment/promo of the year
Day 3 of asking Santi to make a tier list of all the WWE superstars
For me I'm gonna go:
MATCH: Cody & Roman at 'Mania by a landslide.
MALE: Gunther is the single one person who when I see something on TH-cam of him, I will click on it first before anything else.
FEMALE: I know people still aren't feeling her but honestly Nia for me. She's been consistently on TV, has improved so much, and always entertains me.
RETURN: The Rock. No debate.
DEBUT: Agree with the Wyatt Sicks. So unique and so special.
BREAKOUT: I'm gonna say Damian Priest. I saw so much discussion of people thinking he would fail his cash in because they don't see him being a World Champion. But he's had solid matches and is good on the mic and I like the character work he's been doing.
Holy shit: Cody & Roman already won best match so they can sit this one out. I have rewatched Heyman getting attacked by new Bloodline SO many times. So well executed and a general shocker.
FEUD: Punk & McIntyre next question.
NXT: Oba Femi is a literal beast and he better win a World Title the second he is on the main roster.
WORST MATCH: Hello The Usos.
don’t know if wrestler of the year is gonna be in here but if it isn’t Cody Rhodes it’s lowkey rigged
Yea santi is a dope , how don’t u pick Cody
@@michaelstover6778Nah he isn't dope drew is easily superstar of the year lol
Found the Cody simp. Congrats on being one of the most worthless life forms
I think hearing the Undertakers bell ring was so unexpected since we all were expecting stone cold song to hit.
I never thought I would hear Undertakers bell to ring again and catch me off guard, but I was completely caught off guard and it was took me back to being a kid and hearing it on smackdown. GOAT
my holy shit was the first wyattsickx jump scare😭😭

I also said “HOLY SHIT” when Taker’s gong hit. The list is a great mix of moments too though. Cena’s entrance was also amazing, Cody pinning Roman, Punk attacking Drew & Damien’s cash in, Bron’s attack on Ricochet filled with legitimately concerning spots, Bayley getting back on top, Punk’s promo on Drew at the draft, Jade’s debut, Jordynne Grace, Joe Hendry, Rhea’s return, poaching Ethan Page from AEW was underrated, Drew’s attack on Punk, Chad Gable heel turn, Sami pinning Gunther, Debut of Tama Tonga, Debut of Jacob Fatu, “Roman isnt coming back”, “You are NOT MY TRIBAL CHIEF!” followed by the triple powerbomb on the announcers desk, the double german to Bronson and Sami in the triple threat IC match with, Tiffy in the Bank, frankly the entire women’s MITB match, Trick losing the belt after KOing Page, and my personal winner the Wyatt’s debut.

I mentioned this on the Patreon, but it isn't a gong for Undertaker's theme. It's a bell. A gong is the big, cymbal-like instrument from East Asia. It's a bell because of that old "for whom the bell tolls" deal.
Oil up Shanti
I know it's WWE awards but women's wrestler of the year is timeless Tony storm
Shoot since you mentioned it. The shield music playing actually had me say “holy shit they got dean ambrose for this?!” It was the largest set of blue balls wwe has handed me to this day as dean is my fav of the shield members…. But for those few seconds….I got suckered in!
What’s great about this year is many of the stars are coming back from IL. Many of them have missed 3+ months. List:
-CM Punk
-Charlotte Flair
-Rhea Ripley
-Seth Rollins
-Jimmy Uso
-Big E
-Viking Raiders
-Alexa Bliss (not injured but maternity list)
-No Roman for 4 months (just chillin)
Rock's return wasn't this year, he made an appearance in 2023
jacob fatu could be argued for debut of the year bc of what he’s actually done but the wyatt sicks is also a great selection bc of how unique and crazy the segment was
1. Roman vs Cody or Seth vs Drew at Mania
2. Cody Rhodes
3. Bayley
4. The Rock
5. Wyatt Sicks
6. Chad Gable
7. The Rock heel turn, Cena retirement announcement, or Damian cash in
8. CM Punk vs Drew McIntyre
9. Trick Williams
10. Jey Uso vs Jimmy Uso it's an easy choice
That disappointing match was result of a limited time frame, Jey explained it. Same as John Cena vs The Undertaker.
Santi you should do a video on the best WWE superstar at each age
Another banger by my goat 😭🙏
The year we had 2 mid carders holding the top 2 titles
holy shit moment was paul heyman saying solo aint his tribal chief.
Day 11 of asking santi to rank all the intercontinental champions from the past 20 years
Day 1 of asking santi to make his top 10 wwe superstars of all time
I love you santi
Drew for me in character wise no one is close to him and he won elimination chamber and money in the bank in only one year.
santi is on sancho levels of glaze rn for drew mcintyre
I was literally thinking about the undertaker appearing when you were describing what makes a holy shit moment
Breakout superstar fs Damian priest
16:46 Imo y'all hating on this match too much
Day 2 of asking for comparisons of the current main roster to veterans/retired/HOF Wrestlers I.e. Dom and Eddie, Sami and Hulk
Wyatt sicks debut is the right answer but y’all sleeping on ilja draganovs debut because that match vs ricochet was a masterpiece.
Hey
Nia holds a strong argument for female wrestler against bayley
Male Superstar: Cody Rhodes (He already has 2 MOTY contenders. He won back to back royal rumbles. He main evented back to back. Was the most important part of one of the best main events of all time.
Female Superstar: Iyo Sky
Breakout Male: Either Chad Gable or Drew McIntyre
Breakout Female: Tiffy
Best feud: Cody/Seth vs. Rock/Roman for the first 4 months, and Drew vs. Punk since then.
Best Match: Cody vs. Roman
Worst Match: Jey vs. Jimmy
Best Return: The Rock
Best Debut: Wyatt Sicks.
OIL TF UP
Breakout of the year winner should’ve been Gunther
Breakout star of the year is either gable or Je’Von Evans
I'd say breakout star could and maybe should be damian priest. Moved up to main event star and has shown he can hang at that level
Though I've many but,
Paul Heyman taking that powerbomb on the announcers table, for me the Holy shit moment.
John cena and rock face2face is also a holy shit moment
You should add an Xtreme moment of the year. For me it’s iyos pile driver to Zoey off onto a ladder
CM Punk’s return had to be somewhere here ngl
Great video but how can you miss out JOE HENDRY when he gets more views than any other WWE clip. I believe
I know this year has been good but sayin this is the best year of wwe he has seen...that's wild to me
jey uso should be male of the year he has been on his own for the first time to start a year and he has been doing pretty well and his fan base is absolutely ridiculous and his rise is just great to see
How to fix the Usos match at mania in 2 steps
Add rikishi the special guest ref and make it a street fight
I will say, having Undertaker substitute for Stone Cold worked, but I like to think it should've been Triple H to take out the Rock, calling back to the smackdown after the WrestleMania kick-off event when Triple H talked about who had the authority.
You should have done Move of the Year: Sami Zayne Brainbuster to Gunther.
My holy shit moment of the year was just seeing Cody win the big one. I think we all knew he was going to win, but it was such a crazy moment to see WWE finally pull the trigger.
