This reminds me of the Tony Khan “promo” where he got his arm behind his bicep to make it look beefier and goes (effectively) “the best Khan in wrestling is ME! Not some con man in Connecticut”
It's funny because at least Punk isn't friends with a convicted pedophile. And at least he's not a raging homophobe. And he certainly doesn't do any prissy prancin' or finger dancin'...
Wow... I just found out that they both passed away from your post. I had the pleasure to meet the both of them, and Ole was an absolute gem! Virgil wasn't mean or nasty or anything when I spoke to him, but he definitely wasn't as engaging or as willing to talk as Ole was.

That t-shirt definitely didn't come across as intended. I had no idea of the backstory to it, nor any idea of who the person was. It was shocking, to say the least...
The Wrestling Observer awards lost all meaning to me when Dave Meltzer denied my vote for Dutch Mantell for Booker of the Year (for booking the TNA women's division) because, according to Unca Dave, there was no evidence that he was booking the division. Except it was common knowledge at the time and to this day Mantell talks about booking the TNA women's division. I wonder how many of these current awards have been manipulated by Meltzer in a similar fashion.
John Moxley in 10th place for wrestler of the year and Gunther not even mentioned says it all. Also no consideration for Ilya Dragon who has been awesome.
WWE winning promotion of the year and Dynamite and Collision being the top two shows was one of the stupidest/funniest things I’ve ever heard. Sure WWE is the best promotion but they don’t even have the best two shows! The fucking mental gymnastics are all over the place.
Know that meme where the guy is holding hands with his girlfriend and checks out another girl walking the other way much to his girlfriend's disgust? Man - Dave Meltzer New Girl - Will Ospreay Girlfriend - Kenny Omega
The fact that Tony Khan lost Booker, Promoter, and Promotion of the Years Speaks volumes. More importantly, the fact he didn't tweet for almost an entire week because of it, meanwhile HHH could care fucking less. What blows my mind is WWE won the top 3 awards, yet AEW somehow still wins best show and best PPV. Something doesn't add up. Of course, you know Meltzer enforced his rule that his new flavor of the month, Opsreay won as many awards as possible.
Who the hell votes for these things?? There’s no reason Orange Cassidy should be tied with Punk and receive more votes than LA Knight for most charismatic 😂
Welp, that answered my question. Twitter still has jackasses online talking about Will, Okada, and Mercedes going to be game changers for the company. I see that the tv ratings will determine all 3 will be a lie.
His accent is what sets him apart from others and I like that, and I just read bro is just 22. I thought he was young indie veteran, he has the top guy look.
LA Knight being no where near the top especially for talker (I think he's better than MJF) and him getting himself over as the most popular star along with Cody Rhodes is banana's. These people just don't know quality.

The “hipster” mindset in wrestling fandom has been annoying (see O’Shea Jackson Jr’s points) at times but I’ve mostly let it be. Whatever, people like what they like. But the over compensating for these underwhelming performers simply for the sake of “I know them, I’M a fan, I’M different” is by far the worst part of the business today.
So was the first one, and nobody talks about the first one. The first one is every bit as good as the second but the second one is so much longer that it gets all the attention.
I was just looking over the past winners, there has been an anti-WWE WWF bias in most awards for a long time -- but it just jumped the shark completely since AEW came out
I like how WWE wins best promotion, yet their shows come nowhere near 1st in Best Show. Very strange voting. Smackdown should have got best show by default
Seriously, promotion of the year and they don’t even have the two best shows. Their shows who not only maintain an audience but are growing. The AEW shows however have lost viewers year to date. The logic hurts my brain.
Adam Page’s buckshot lariat is a top move of the year?! Logan Paul’s buckshot lariat looks SO much more devastating (despite only wrestling like 8 matches in his life)
Orange does seem to have a character and some charisma TBF. If he was a little bigger I'd love him to go to TNA (and some writers and Russo to help write the characters and segments)

It’s mind blowing Judgement Day didn’t make it into Tag Team of the year. They were Champions pretty much since last summer and have had bangers with pretty much everyone
I've been watching some interviews with Dave and I've changed my mind - I think he could well be autistic. He's not an unlikable guy, I can't relate him to his Twitter posts, it seems like a different person. Its also clear that he likes a different style of wrestling from Jim, which would be ok if he didn't make an ass of himself on Twitter, I don't know why he does that.
They haven't been the best promotion for most of that time, even if the internet nerds and kids think it is. TNA was much better for years, better roster, more entertaining.
These “rewards” are absolute bullshit. I’ve been a hardcore wrestling fan all my life I am 32 years old. I have NEVER read anything from Dave. I have NEVER been on his little website. And I never will.
25:00 I'm one of the 19 people that watched Queen's Quest vs Odeo Tai's cage match It was absolutely the best match for Stardom of 2023. I wouldn't put it above FTR vs Bullet Club Gold, which should be #1, but it was a great conclusion/blowoff match to the six month long storyline for Queen's Quest.
Shingo IS awesome and has been so for a long while . But....I can also understand how people may not know him in the U.S. Gunther is a straight up badass too though . He could have swept the single rankings and I would not blink an eye . As I could agree with that .

@@YeTismThe people voting are avid fans of wrestling all over the world… that’s why they subscribe to Dave, bud.
@@thaywood979 looks like I found a wild observer subscriber. lol
@@YeTismLMAO you couldn’t be more wrong. And I’m not sure how you got I was a Meltzer subscriber from my comment… that’s literally what’s happening. That epitomizes the intellect of Cornette’s fanbase I guess. And I can’t say the truth because Cornette’s mods delete my comments.
@@YeTismhave you considered that maybe if you don’t know who they are, they’re worth checking out for showing up so much?
I mean FFS when was Marufuji even last relevant?
Shit on a shingle in place of shingo takagi is amazing 🤣 I’m going to use that
Takeashit and Shitonashingle should be a tag team.
Then Jim can call them "The Shits."
It’s mind blowing Judgement Day didn’t make it into Tag Team of the year. They were Champions pretty much since last summer and have had bangers with pretty much everyone
Here we go folks this will be something.
I've been watching some interviews with Dave and I've changed my mind - I think he could well be autistic. He's not an unlikable guy, I can't relate him to his Twitter posts, it seems like a different person. Its also clear that he likes a different style of wrestling from Jim, which would be ok if he didn't make an ass of himself on Twitter, I don't know why he does that.
Paul Heyman losing to Don Phallus 🙄
The fact that WWE hadn't won the best promotion award since the attitude era tells you everything you need to know here about Dave and his audience.
They haven't been the best promotion for most of that time, even if the internet nerds and kids think it is. TNA was much better for years, better roster, more entertaining.
Jim’s laughter as Brian reads out the top ten wrestlers of the year at 5:38 is hilarious 😂😂
These “rewards” are absolute bullshit. I’ve been a hardcore wrestling fan all my life I am 32 years old. I have NEVER read anything from Dave. I have NEVER been on his little website. And I never will.
36:56-37:04 my heart just sank.
That id the most offensive and egregious bastardising of Bruiser Brody's name 😭
Where’ve you been the past 3 years lmao
@@option3590Had my head buried friend!
The Kenny Omega poster holding the Dave Dildo is epic!!
I’m pretty sure that’s Ospreay, rather than Kenny, but still epic artwork by Travis, as per usual..
Bryan Danielson winning his own award is hilarious. Uncle Dave is off his rocker.
Reminds me of an old comedy sketch I saw where Babe Ruth mocked Lou Gehrig for getting Lou Gehrig’s disease .
Waiting for Dave awarding himself with his own award. That would regain credibility lol
I think it was named after Brian when he retired TBF.
Should he have been disqualified from it when he came back?
@@option3590 Logically, yes, but this is Uncle Dave we're talking about here.
Bryan Alvarez has got the Observer's "Best Wrestling Book of the Year" at least 3 times.
So FTR is tag team of the year but they don’t get Sting and Lil Sting in North Carolina…
Them going over the Best Maneuvers was killing me 😂😂😂
Ospreay is WITHOUT A DOUBT the most overrated clown he's ever pushed. his total obsession with him is very odd
Jim has to watch Oba Femi though, dude has the potential to be a beast
And he is just 22. This guy is going to be money machine if booked right!
Jim and Brian seriously need to to watch NXT again. So much potential and future stars in the making there
@@Tayworld5 Yep I agree his critics helps some wrestlers to improve.
@@Tayworld5 I agree but there is a lot of crap I know they'd hate; Chase U romance crap, Joe Gacy, etc.
@@nathanbefarrell they can skip it like they skip everything else they don’t like
Shingo Takagi=Shit on a shingle..🤣🤣🤣🤣
AEW fans are really putting it all on Ospreay turning the company around
AEW marks: “Just you wait!”
Ratings: 📉
WE HAVE WEMBLEY WHERE WILL WORLD WIN THE WORLD TITLE! - Basement AEW marks
And Okada 😂😂😂
25:00 I'm one of the 19 people that watched Queen's Quest vs Odeo Tai's cage match It was absolutely the best match for Stardom of 2023. I wouldn't put it above FTR vs Bullet Club Gold, which should be #1, but it was a great conclusion/blowoff match to the six month long storyline for Queen's Quest.
The part where they both break into laughter over Action Andretti being second place ROTY is hilarious
Take your place, people.
Sounds like a bunch of rich AEW fans voting on this one
This thumbnail is fucking wild lmao 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 moxley in the back 😂😂
I love these guys. I laugh so hard listening to Jim. Hands down the best podcast on TH-cam.
Shingo IS awesome and has been so for a long while . But....I can also understand how people may not know him in the U.S. Gunther is a straight up badass too though . He could have swept the single rankings and I would not blink an eye . As I could agree with that .
