    One thing to shout out as a "Best" for 2024 should be the official WWE Vault TH-cam channel, which has just been killing it with all manner of obscure, forgotten, & previously never shown to the public footage & matches. Kanyon portraying Mortis in 2003, Amazing Red's only (dark) match in WWE, Nunzio winning the Cruiserweight Title in Italy, Dusty Rhodes' actual final match in FCW, and both Minoru Tanaka & Dump Matsumoto competing in a WWF/E ring are just a handful of the kinds of things you'll find on the channel, and the fact that it's an official WWE thing is astounding. Hell, just this week they put up a 1998 Funkin' Dojo match between Kurt Angle & Christian Cage (w/ Jim Cornette)!
    Just an absolute treasure trove of content from this year alone... and they even recently uploaded the AWA WrestleRock Rumble (plus a behind the scene video about that & the event itself)!

    The best thing about The New Day segment and partial implosion
    Is that I understand both Kofi and Woods’ and Big E’s perspective
    Realistically, Big E could’ve come back to be there for support at any time, since Iike Kofi said, many others have had devastating neck injuries and came back in some way shape or form
    When Austin had to retire, he came back as Raw GM and even took some spots like getting choke slammed from Kane
    Kurt Angle had THREE neck surgeries during the prime of his career
    And even Edge put himself at risk in certain segments during his retirement years
    But of course, Big E’s injury in particular was unique in that it was stated how E could’ve potentially lost his life

    Honorable mention goes to Je'von Evans, fka Jay Malachi. While not a dominant rise up the card in the traditional sense like you'd see with a Lesnar or Sheamus, Je'von made people take notice with his natural talent and energy. His time in DPW and the independents definitely increased his stock coming in and the NXT crowd would have been more in the know about the Young OG's feats, which helps garner bigger reactions for him and makes him feel like the big deal that he is.
    I'm not surprised Je'von quickly rose above NXT Lvl Up and got major TV time in the main event slot. He's simply been one of those young geniuses like Roxanne Perez that has that natural charisma that comes through in the ring rather than in promos. And he's got that presence that can easily flip between face and heel without losing what makes Je'von special.
    His rise is honestly absolutely crazy in the grand scheme of things though. He's already challenging for the NXT Championship in less than his first full TV year in the company, sharing the ring with Randy Orton in a match that truly felt like a young lion being endorsed by a legend AND THE KID'S ONLY FUCKING 20. If this is what he gets up to at just 20 years old, Je'von could really have an extraordinary wrestling career.

This year alone they've worked with several other promotions from All Japan to TNA to NOAH to Marigold to GCW hell even allowing talents for return to their old stomping ground with guys like Johnny Gargano, Ludwig Kaiser, Grayson Waller, Drew McIntyre, Finn Balor and JD McDonagh popping up in AIW, WXW, PWA, ICW and OTT respectively just all around cool stuff that wouldn't have been possible under Vince.

    Using your honorable mention take about your own highlights this year to say THANK YOU BRIAN, thanks for your awesome Wrestling content, from Berlin Germany! Iam an Attitude Era dude, wasn’t watching Wrestling for almost 2 decades (with some small on and off stints in between) but you and your classic PPV reviews ignited the flame again! Please keep on going, you are a entertaining creator and I love watching your videos! Stay safe and as you are!

    I think Liv Morgan definitely deserves to be at least mentioned. She's absolutely killed it with her matches and character work, and I love that she's finally gotten a chance to be at the top of the women's division after years of being always on the cusp but not given an actual opportunity; even when she won the title from Rousey, she never was allowed to look like a legitimate champion and it was always a matter of when, not if, ol Ronda got her win and title back.
    I get it's not everyone's cup of tea (like anything in wrestling ever is), and there have been definite missteps like Bad Blood, but seeing how she's grown from how unbelievably green she was in NXT to be one of their top stars and a bonafide ambassador to the company just brings a smile to my face.

    It might be recency bias but my personal best moment in wrestling is this entire past weekend.
    I produced and was part of a 3 man booth for an all cage match show Saturday for UPW in Rochester NY where i got to watch and call two of my young guys win their first tag team championships.
    Sunday I produced and solo commentated a show for NCW in Buffalo that had Masha on the card against two very bright up and coming talents Ava Brooks Xondra Lee. Plus I got to see our mutual buddy Pete Pappas which is always a pleasure.

    Man that crowd in Lyon was amazing. I hope the WWE comes back here for another televised show, maybe in a bigger arena?
    We managed to make the world discover a 90s soccer/party chant, and remain on topic with our chants throughout the whole show, adding to the experience

    -Bull Nakano FINALLY being induced into the WWE Hall of Fame
    -Private Party FINALLY winning the tag titles
    -Mina Shirakawa, period
    -Davey Boy Smith Jr. winning the All Japan Triple Crown
    -The in-ring return of Nigel Guinness
    -The manly tears of Takayama-mania
    -Mark Briscoe winning the ROH world title at Supercard of Honor

    The best moment for me in 2024 was Eddie Kingston being a triple crown champion.There are very few moments in wrestling where I legitimately was emotional and happy for that person.The Mad King one of them. For a guy who has busted his ass for so long and never won a championship, FINALLY got rewarded and held three.NJPW strong openweight,ROH world heavyweight and the first ever AEW Continental champion. As corny and cliche it is to say Eddie Kingston is the prime example of hard work benefiting from the rewards. It couldn't happen to a better guy,I hope he recovers from injury and has a better 2025.

    I first encountered Joe Hendry when I was watching WCPW. His team up with Joseph Conners had me hooked but after the rebrand I lost interest in the product.
    Fast forward to 2024 and I’m blown away by Wrestlemania 40 and start watching WWE regularly since the rise of Super Cena. One night I’m watching NXT and THAT song plays and I lost my mind. I instantly started googling what he’d been up to and I’m just so damn proud of him.
    I Believe In Joe Hendry!

    It was truly amazing to see the continuation of the tradition of every 10th Mania crowning a forever midcarder who had become very popular to varying degrees of success…
    Happened to Bret Hart, to Krispin Wah, to Daniel Bryan and now Cody Rhodes.
    Side note: I thought he was going to do a “Yo Adrian, I did it” speech to his father and wife. I mean, they were in Philly…

    One of my top moments of the year has to be Will Ospreay’s “Bruv I am the feeling” promo. As someone who only got exposed to him once he started appearing on AEW that promo was the final push to cement him as my new favorite wrestler of the current era.
