So far, here are my top three and it was tough. Hope to catch up on 2008 stuff soon. I've been stuck on 90s AJPW and NJPW as of late. So yeah, I have a lot of catching up to do.
1. Ric Flair vs. Shawn Michaels - WWE WrestleMania XXIV (3/30/08) 2. Shinsuke Nakamura vs. Hiroshi Tanahashi - NJPW WrestleKingdom II (1/4/08) 3. Kurt Angle vs. Christian Cage - TNA Against All Odds (2/10/08) (Soon to be my top ten with I think things through better and catch up on my 2008 viewings.)
Expecting a big package soon. I'll check out NOAH 3/2 and NJPW 2/17 this week. I can't wait to watch Misawa/Morishima and Tanahashi/Styles. I'll reply with my thoughts when I watch them. Also have to watch the NOAH 2/21 six-man tag with Morishima, Sugiura and Marufuji vs. Kobashi, Honda and Taniguchi, as I've heard nothing but good things about it.

I'll add these:

Some damn fine matches, if you wheel.

Haven't gotten one idea yet. We're not even half way through yet so I'll make a decision later.

1. Shawn Michaels vs Ric Flair WWE WrestleMania XXIV 2. Homicide vs Eddie Kingston vs Teddy Hart JAPW Reclaiming Hudson 3. Undertaker vs Edge WWE WrestleMania XXIV 4. Low Ki vs Hernandez JAPW Reclaiming Hudson 5. Bryan Danielson vs Nigel Mcguiness ROH 6th Anniversary Show 6. LAX vs Motor City Machine Guns JAPW Wildcard 4 7. Money In The Bank WrestleMania XXIV 8. El Generico & Kevin Steen vs New Hazard ROH Supercard of Honor III 9. Roderick Stong vs Erick Stevens vs Necro Butcher ROH 6th Anniversary Show 10. Shawn Michaels vs Chris Jericho Judgment Day
I feel there wasn't that many MOTY candidates this year yet. Hopefully there will be a lot more by the time the end of 2008 rolls around.

I'll do a list in no specific order, of some matches I think should be on there.
1.Nigel McGuinness vs. Austin Aries(Supercard of Honor III) 2.Shawn Michaels vs. Ric Flair(WM XXIV) 3.Steenerico vs. New Hazard(Supercard of Honor III) 4.Undertaker vs. Edge(WM XXIV) 5.Dragon Gate 6-man(Supercard of Honor III)
It's a short list for now, but I will update it later. I am gonna watch some matches from Judgment Day and Backlash that I didn't see that I heard great things about, and with the ROH PPV coming up this week and shit.

I would like to add the following to the MOTYC list. - Bryan Danielson vs. Atsushi Aoki - NOAH 5/15/08 - Part 1 - Part 2 I recommend anyone who hasn't seen it yet to check it out. Plus, Danielson has brought "The Final Countdown" to NOAH. "Last Resort".

Obviously, Nigel McGuinness versus Tyler Black from Take No Prisoners should be added.

I bet the Japanese fans were pissed at Danielson using The Final Countdown seeing that's Muto's old theme.

Not sure what you saw, but I didn't see anything of the kind.

Maybe I'm the only one, but I was very fond of the Aries/Danielson match at Take No Prisoners. Those guys could wrestle 1,000 times, and still pull something new and great out everytime.
And based on live reports, Briscoes/Motor City Machine Guns II will be at the top of the 2008 MOTYC list.

the only match I've seen thus far that I'd give a genuine MOTYC to is BJ Whitmer versus Jimmy Jacobs from IWA-MS April Bloodshowers 2008 {No Rope Barbed Wire match}. Possibly the best no rope barbed wire match I've ever seen. Definately in the top 5.

Tyler vs. Danielson from Breakout. That match tore that building down.
