55. Kota Ibushi vs. Tomohiro Ishii – NJPW G1 Climax 9/27/20
|
| This was kind of the Ishii G1 special. It was two guys hitting each other hard and trying to prove who the tougher man was. I liked that it felt like a true fight at times. You got the sense that Ishii was desperate to not fall to 0-3 and Ibushi wasn’t about to lose two straight on his road to a possible third straight finals appearance. It never felt like it fell into the slow start/hot finish formula, as it was a war from the opening bell. Ibushi hitting his own brainbuster was pretty rad. The fact that they were wailing on each other allowed for the bigger offensive moves to really hit home and get a pop. My favorite spot might’ve been Ishii chopping Ibushi in the throat, only for Ibushi to punch him there in response. The finish saw Ishii fall to some knee strikes and Kamigoye after 15:41. That felt like a true struggle, didn’t overstay its welcome, and was just what I want from these two. [****¼] |

54. Parking Lot Fight: Best Friends vs. Santana and Ortiz – AEW Dynamite 9/16/20
|
| Matches in parking lots are rare but have happened several times. They sometimes work wonders like John Cena vs. Eddie Guerrero in 2003 and sometimes they fail like the one between Adam Cole and Velveteen Dream in 2020. However, the best one ever is this one between Best Friends and Santana and Ortiz. This did a wonderful job of mixing in the intensity of the rivalry with the goofy stuff Best Friends are known for. That included an appearance from Orange Cassidy and the hilarious cameo from Trent’s mom as she flipped off the Inner Circle tandem. There were plenty of big spots as well to keep the violence level up, helping to really make this a standout bout. The whole thing didn’t overstay its welcome either, lasting 13:10 in total, with Best Friends coming out on top in the end. It was one of the better tag matches from AEW, who is a company that thrives on that division. [****¼] |
*This is the final appearance of Best Friends, Santana, and Oritz. *It is the last Parking Lot Fight.

That parking lot fight was one of my favorite matches of the year. I liked both teams before but had only seen the best work from Santana and Ortiz, that was the first big Best Friends match I watched and it delivered.

53. Jay White vs. Taichi – NJPW G1 Climax 10/7/20
|
| White beat him in last year’s G1 and it wasn’t good. However, this got off to a tremendous start as Jay White sat in a corner and clapped along to Taichi serenading him. MOTY. The best thing about these two is that they’re both just two dudes trying to be crapty to their opponents. That made for a match where each guy tried to out-heel the other. I loved this. It was so refreshing and different from the rest of the G1. Guys can trade offense for 10-15 minutes and it gets repetitive in a tournament like this. However, these two use their character work and it makes for something unique. Sure, there were quality exchanges but I’m all about them just being dicks to each other. Gedo got involved, there were low blows and in the end, White won with Blade Runner after 15:16. I was in dire need of a change of pace during the G1, where everything feels so similar so I really enjoyed that. [****¼] |

52. EVIL and Shingo Takagi vs. Hirooki Goto and Tomohiro Ishii – NJPW New Year Dash
|
| It’s another case of Big E’s favorite thing in wrestling and something I love too. BIG MEATY MEN SLAPPING MEAT! A lot of the focus on this New Year Dash event was meant to honor the retirement of the legendary Jushin Thunder Liger. However, these four manly men stole the show. EVIL and Shingo Takagi were a great Los Ingobernables de Japon duo due to how hard hitting their matches are. Hirooki Goto and Tomohiro Ishii represent the same kind of style from CHAOS. They got put together and spent 16:28 putting on a show that was arguably better than 95% of what was seen at Wrestle Kingdom the two prior nights. They brawled and threw bombs at each other, setting up two future feuds for later in the year. The finish saw Shingo pin NEVER Openweight Champion Goto with Last of the Dragon in a great bout that was overlooked by too many. [****¼] |
*This is the final match from New Year's Dash. *It is the last appearance of EVIL.

51. NXT Women's Championship: Rhea Ripley [c] vs. Charlotte Flair – WWE WrestleMania 36 Night Two
|
| Quite for the choice for the opener. Lots of hype for this. Rhea was out in her WrestleMania whites. Charlotte started this with a ton of trash talk as she outwrestled Rhea at every turn. Rhea swung the momentum by getting aggressive and firing up. It was too much for Charlotte to handle at times. Charlotte capitalized on one mistake that put a target on Rhea’s previously damaged leg. Classic work from a heel with a leg submission. Rhea did a hell of a job selling, as even her offense was stunted due to the bad leg. Whenever Rhea got momentum, Charlotte just cut her off and worked the leg. It was simple, classic strategy. The finishing stretch was pretty great, as they went back and forth with some great exchanges, drama, and close calls. Charlotte won with the Figure Eight after 20:28. I don’t agree with the result but that was a banger. Charlotte is one of the best big match wrestlers in the world right now. If only there was a payoff to this booking decision. [****¼] |
*This is the last match from WrestleMania. *It is final appearance of Charlotte Flair.

I don’t know if I could think of 53 matches better than this. Interested to see how the rest of the list plays out. I don't think I can come up with 5 matches in 2020 better than the parking lot brawl. To each their own and I'm enjoying being able to go back through this list since I have all the necessary subscriptions but that match was completely next level imo.

50. IWGP United States Heavyweight Championship: Jon Moxley [c] vs. Minoru Suzuki – NJPW New Beginning in Osaka
|
| This was a highly-anticipated battle. The idea of two madmen like Minoru Suzuki and Jon Moxley fighting sounded awesome to me. Moxley called Suzuki to war with him on the ramp, so Suzuki got two chairs and brought them over for a duel. They spent about a minute of the first third or so of this match in the ring. The rest was just a wild brawl outside. I dug that because it was different from the rest of the show and fit their personalities. Some of the spots came off really well. Suzuki smashing Moxley’s arm in between two chairs was great, as was Suzuki smiling after getting put through a table. They moved into the bigger stuff late, as usual, with Suzuki coming close after locking in his sleeper hold. Moxley survived and responded with the Death Rider. That wasn’t enough because finishers mean nothing, but a second one wrapped things up in 17:16. That was just what I wanted from these two. A wild brawl filled with some big spots that played right into their personalities. [****¼] |

49. Io Shirai vs. Sasha Banks – NXT The Great American Bash 7/1/20
|
| It doesn’t seem like there are many dream matches left in wrestling these days. However, WWE gave us at least one more here. The two best female wrestlers of 2020 collided as Women’s Tag Team Champion Sasha Banks faced NXT Women’s Champion Io Shirai in a highly-anticipated main event. For 14:03, these two delivered the kind of match everyone was hoping for. Banks matched Shirai at every turn but had one thing holding her back. She was arrogant and her trash talking often opened doors for Shirai to get going. The final few minutes are legendary. Spots like Sasha sunset flip powerbombing Io into the plexiglass or Io avoiding a frog splash and turning it into a cross face stand out. Some fans didn’t like the finish, as it wasn’t clean and saw Sasha’s rival, Asuka, show up to spit mist at her. That combated Bayley and allowed Shirai to win with a moonsault. I dug it as a finish through as it wasn’t a cheap DQ or something and still leaves the door open for a possible rematch in the future. [****¼] |

48. Jay White vs. Tomohiro Ishii – NJPW G1 Climax 10/16/20
|
| If White won, he'd have taken the block. He was immediately the prick you expect him to be, which is a great foil for Ishii always bringing heart to his matches. Similar to the Finals against Ibushi last year, Jay tried trading shots with Ishii only to find himself severely outmatched. His sadness as Ishii leaned into his shots was fantastic. I dug the desperation in his attacks on Ishii’s taped legs or having Gedo help him prevent a superplex. White busted out the TTO, which he dubbed ITO (Ishii Tap Out) for this one as the focus on the leg continued. This was going splendidly until they went into the late overbooking. A ref bump and Gedo interference saw Ishii still manage to overcome it. ISHII HIT A GODDAMN STUNDOG MILLIONAIRE. ARE YOU KIDDING ME? English commentary didn’t sell it well enough. Gedo got involved again but Ishii weathered it and put down White with the Brainbuster after an outstanding 24:35. That was a hell of a main event and I loved it. Jay White has quickly become my favorite heavyweight in NJPW. [****¼] |

47. Hiromu Takahashi vs. SHO – NJPW Best of the Super Juniors 12/2/20
|
| As long as he’s around, Hiromu Takahashi is the best junior heavyweight in NJPW. That’s just how it has been since he showed up. With Shingo Takagi as a heavyweight now, it opened the door for SHO to step into the role of being the division’s second best performer. Putting them together sounded like a recipe for success, as their only prior meeting in the BOSJ two years ago was great. At this point in the tournament, things were getting interesting. A win for SHO would make him 5-2, tying him atop the standings with Hiromu (since he’d lose here), El Desperado, and Taiji Ishimori. That added to the stakes and drama here. It was a battle of Hiromu’s wild style against SHO’s sheer strength. The match was filled with action and some ridiculous exchanges between two of the best in the company. In the end, after an exciting 24:53, SHO put down the former IWGP Jr. Heavyweight Champion with Shock Arrow, scoring one of the biggest wins of his career. [****¼] |

46. AEW Tag Team Championship: Hangman Page and Kenny Omega [c] vs. The Lucha Bros – AEW Dynamite 2/19/20
|
| The Lucha Bros beat the champions last December (***¼). Like their previous match, this was high on action but they took everything up an extra notch. I appreciated that as it made it feel like they saved stuff for the bigger match. Omega ended up with a bad leg, giving us a story to focus on. The teams started throwing out big tandem offense early on, including a Pentagon Destroyer. It felt like the final sequence of a match but this was only about ten minutes in. The spot where Fenix hit a unique springboard rana on Omega to the outside was insane. Fenix keeps coming up with ways to impress me even though I’ve been watching him for five or so years. They brought back the finish from the 12/18/19 match where Page accidentally hit Omega with the Buckshot Lariat. However, Omega stunned everyone by kicking out of the Penta Driver. Fenix’s corkscrew dive into a knee was sick and I bit on the Tiger Driver ’98 near fall. Page got back on the apron and the V-Trigger/Buckshot Lariat sandwich finished Fenix in 15:06. That ruled. I suspected the outcome because the Bucks won the opener. However, they made me buy into the drama as I could’ve seen them doing Bucks/Lucha Bros again and maybe Page/Omega at the PPV. They threw traditional tag wrestling out the window and just had a bonkers match without ever going overboard. [****¼] |

45. Daniel Bryan vs. Drew Gulak – WWE Elimination Chamber
|
| I was all for this match. I wish it had more build though. Fantastic technical wrestling as soon as this started. Bryan seemed to go out of his way to make sure that Gulak looked like more than a threat. Gulak had an answer for everything Bryan did. The story of him having pointers for Bryan’s opponents made sense because he did have a game plan. There were tons of smooth counters and quality grappling from both men. Bryan took a sick bump on his neck on a German suplex that was pretty hard to watch. Gulak added a super reverse suplex and rolled it into a Dragon Sleeper. He added elbows and rolled again, only for Bryan to slip out and counter into the Yes Lock. It was smooth as hell. Gulak passed out to lose in a fantastic 14:19. They had a stellar match that played off of the existing angle coming in, Gulak looked like a beast, and Bryan picked up the win. Phenomenal all around. [****¼] |

44. IWGP Heavyweight Championship: Kazuchika Okada [c] vs. Kota Ibushi – NJPW Wrestle Kingdom 14 Night One
|
| Okada got a sweet fancy entrance. He also sported shorter shorts than usual and brought out more thigh meat. He’s a man of the people. As much as I love Ibushi, he’s not the kind of guy to take Okada out of his comfort zone. My favorite Okada matches in the last few years are when he’s forced to be different (vs. Shibata, the G1 match with Omega, vs. Sabre Jr., etc.). That meant we got the methodical beginning before things picked up. It’s another case where you could probably cut out the first third and not miss much. Of course, once it got going they delivered the goods. A few spots missed the mark, like the mistimed Ibushi double stomp where Okada basically took a back bump on his own. I loved how Ibushi would just fire up and beat the crap out of Okada. It’s something he should have focused on more because he has a huge advantage there. I popped when he pulled out his own Rainmaker. The finishing stretch is the stuff you love about Okada. Tons of Rainmakers, counters, near falls, drama, etc. He finally hit one that was enough to retain after 39:16. Great stuff here but it wasn’t different enough to make it special. Ibushi is far better than the likes of SANADA, so he can add just enough of his flair to make the formula work for him. This also lacked drama since Okada/Naito seemed obvious as soon as they started this double title talk. [****¼] |

44!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!? White/Naito was far more predictable to me. The drama of the match was heightened because Naito has a story with both guys. Seeing 2 of the best active wrestlers in the world give it their all was an absolute blast. This was a Top 10 match for me. I went 5 stars and didn't think twice. I'd even take it over Okada/Naito from Night 2.

Lol Okada/Ibushi from wk is another top 5 match of 2020 for me along with that parking lot brawl. A few of these are definitely head scratchers.
