Fill in the blank: 2015 will be the year of - Roman Reigns

Superstar/diva of the year - AJ Styles. He's really elevated his profile. For the ladies, Sasha Banks.

Worst superstar/diva of the year - Cameron. Anyone who selects anything else will be shot on sight. She tried to pin someone's back. TWICE. And then got indignant about it when the ref wouldn't count!

Best "technical wrestler" of the year = Daniel Bryan, Lesnar

Tag team of the year - saaaad category... in the main shows, Enzo and Cass. They best personify a tag team to me, one guy talks, one guy puts in the work, not the Usos, who are basically the same guy. Young Bucks are hot, but they're too spot monkey for me.

Match of the year - Styles/Cole in Toronto, Sasha Banks vs. Charlotte

PPV of the year - NXT The R Most Recent R One

Worst PPV of the year = Battleground

Program/feud of the year = Bryan/Authority

Worst program/feud of the year = Show/Lesnar from WWE, Sam Shaw/Anderson from TNA.

Best babyface of the year = Daniel Bryan

Best heel of the year = Paul Heyman

Best surprise of the year = Rusev

Biggest disappointment of the year = Cesaro. Wrestlemania. Huge pop. LOOK AT THE FRICKIN GUY'S CAPABILITIES! Nonsensical, half-assed heel turn and is promptly thrown under the bus. Runner up: The handling of the Rhodes brothers... who were as over as over can be at the end of the year.

Best "new wrestler" (appearing on main roster for first time in 2014) = Rusev.

Worst "new wrestler" (appearing on main roster for first time in 2014) = The Bunny, I guess.

Fill in the blank: 2015 will be the year of Roman Reigns. Ugh.

All I know is last weeks Raw was the worst episode out of the last 1100 or so they've made. That takes some doing.

I saw her do a head scissors takedown at some point this year. She's automatically several tiers ahead of Cameron.

Tried TNA but any organization that thinks Bully Ray is the face of your company needs to stop being a wrestling company.

Also I stopped watching somewhere around the mid 00s until the summer of punk. I would watch stuff here and there but once they went full PG that was also plain awful. They had 0 stars other than Cena. When they started trying to make Jeff Hardy I was done.

so in your mind there is nothing other wrestling promotion worth even giving a chance regardless of who works there?

Daniel Bryan does like 5 moves and they're all kicks and flying ****. How is he the best technical wrestler of the year? Tyson Kidd should probably win that. He had a really great year.

Summer of Punk in RoH or WWE? because i never any of Punk's WWE run branded that way.

It was main roster only. I put a disclaimer no NXT guys.
