Zayn/Nakamura was great but you already knew who was going to win as soon as the match was announced. Cena/Styles from Summerslam is my choice. Great story going into it and an incredible contest to match.

I knew who was going to win watching Rogue 1 but the journey was what I wanted to watch.
 
I really gotta get the network. Heard great things about Nak/Zayn and The Revival/anybody.

AJ/Cena was great but I went with Survivor Series. The Final Deletion was something else all together. It was a shit match but fantastic television and one of the greatest things in wrestling history. No horseshit. We'll be talking about this the same way we talk about Mick Foley going off of the Hell in the Cell or the Shawn/Razor ladder match.
 
How they built up the match with Gargano's knee and the CWC match between Ciampa and Gargano really made that match something

What's so maddeningly-difficult to accept is how you'll never be able to really explain the full context to anyone who didn't experience it as it happened, in real time. You can go back and watch months of storyline in an afternoon, but that gives you only a fraction of what it was actually like.

I say maddening because this is exactly what I talk about in being unable to really compare different eras.
 
AJ/Cena for me, but I can TOTALLY see Revival/DIY taking it. I just watch the TakeOvers, but that match really made me feel like I was watching late 80s early 90s NWA/WCW tag team wrestling again (which is some of my favorite wrestling moments)

I will say that I find Nakamura overrated (or maybe I just dont get his character/appeal) but the Zayn match with him was pretty damn incredible.

I'm with you on Nak...I got a lot of hate when the Swagsuke band wagon was rolling hard for daring to suggest that he wasn't even the best guy in NJPW, let alone the best in the world. Doesn't mean I think he's bad or that I don't enjoy his work...but he's almost gotten to Bret hart levels of overrated work...I'll probably get a gif for that comment too...but whatever.
 
Naito vs Omega was MOTY and spoiler alert for MOTY 17, its going to be Omega vs Okada from WK11
