Think it's time we move on. 2009's over, here's 2010 for you. Who cares about calendars and stuff like that, let's just call it as we see it.
Of course I have nothing now since we're 5 days into the new year, but still. Here we go.

Kevin Steen vs. Player Dos (Epic Encounter III)
One thing I've never before complimented ROH on is their cinematography. They actually used some key cinematic techniques here that added to the match. The last ROH DVDs I bought were Final Countdown: Boston & NYC, and both of them were almost TNA levels of bad camera work. As an editor, I just got so annoyed with it.
But I digress. Kevin Steen is a bully, Player Dos is agile as all fuck. Steen would taunt Dos, and Dos would hit Steen with something out of the Toryumon playbook. As always Steen's crowd work was great. The guy may not be in the best shape anymore, but he's still a top guy in ROH just by the way he can work a crowd.
Big notable spots were a top rope dragon suplex from Dos to Steen, a missed PHOENIX 630 by Dos, and then two package piledrivers by Steen. It almost ended like HBK/Undertaker from this year. Steen was so livid that Dos kicked out of the first PPD that he KILLED him on the second one.
Really an awesome match. Not MOTY, but I definately recommend it.

It was good. I'd say you missed naming the biggest spot, the step up rana off the apron.
Just watched As The Worm Turns and I would definitely have to say Roderick Strong vs. Chris Sabin was one of my favorite matches this year.

With more than half the year gone I think it's time to revive this thread.
My personal top 3:
3. The Undertaker vs Chris Jericho vs John Morrison vs R-Truth vs CM Punk vs Rey Mysterio (Elimination Chamber)- WWE Elimination Chamber This match was really great for building matches towards Mania. Morrison had a great performance in this match and Jericho had some truly memorable moments in this match (Jericho going back into the pod once he sees Taker stand up).
2. MCMG vs Beer Money (2 out of 3 Falls Match)- TNA The Whole FN Show These two teams had really great matches leading up to this match and this match imo surpassed their past encounters. I thought the four of them really put on a great showing and the ending celebration was really great.
1. The Undertaker vs Shawn Michaels- WWE Wrestlemania 26 I know a lot of people call this match overrated, and that they didn't put on as good a match as last year but I really enjoyed this match. The build up to this was one of the best I've seen going to a match and the emotion shown during the ending sequence was awesome. The thought of this being Shawn's last match and considering the age these two have, I think they put on an amazing performance.
