Glad to see this get some love. I could see this sneaking onto my ballot in the future.
I remember liking this when I watched it a million years ago. I should give this a rewatch. This sort of seems like it would be clash of styles but then it also feels like these two were made for each other especially in 2004

I think it is funny that one of my fuck-ups caused three posts.
I love the Royal Rumble HHH vs Cactus match that is what I meant to vote for. I accidentally copied & pasted the wrong match.
It is up to the Mods if they want to fix it, but all those points should go to the Royal Rumble match.
My bad.

Total Points: 75
# of Ballots: 3

I really need to dig into their feud more, I loved the 98 match
288-T. Bianca Belair vs Sasha Banks (WWE - 4/10/2021)
Total Points: 76
# of Ballots: 1
High Vote: Grimmas - 25
Awesome to see Grimmas going so high on this, it was an amazing match
266-T. Jushin Thunder Liger vs Shinjiro Otani (NJPW - 2/9/1997)
Total Points: 84
# of Ballots: 2
High Vote: Tetsujin - 55
A shame to see this match drop so much, this feels like one of those universally loved 90s Jr matches
248-T. Bryan Danielson vs. Kenny Omega (AEW - 9/22/2021)
Total Points: 93
# of Ballots: 1
High Vote: Gramsci - 8
Amazing to see this match get a top 10 vote, well deserved
243-T. Toshie Uematsu vs Yoshiko Tamura (GAEA - 7/19/1997)
Total Points: 95
# of Ballots: 2
High Vote: Kas - 36
People need to watch/rewatch this, Toshie's babyface performance is one of the best I can think of
241-T. Shingo Takagi vs Masaaki Mochizuki (DG - 11/01/2015)
Total Points: 96
# of Ballots: 1
High Vote: Kas - 5
I know people aren't that high on the DG style, but even as a fan of DG, this is by far the best match of that style that I've seen, and I urge people to give it a chance even if you're a skeptic
239-T. Kazuchika Okada vs. Kenny Omega (NJPW - 1/4/2017)
Total Points: 97
# of Ballots: 2
High Vote: Control21 - 44
This one always felt like it would age the worst of the 4, and unless no-one voted for their 60-minute draw it would seem that's what happened
223-T. Hiroshi Tanahashi vs Suwama (AJPW - 4/9/2008)
Total Points: 105
# of Ballots: 2
High Vote: EnviousStupid - 41
I thought I would be the high vote on this one, so this is certainly a pleasant surprise, EnviousStupid is a smart person
203-T. Giant Baba vs Destroyer (JWA – 3/5/1969)
Total Points: 120
# of Ballots: 6
High Vote: Elliott - 56
I haven't seen this one, but to make it onto 6 ballots and not crack the top 200 feels unfair. Also makes me want to prioritise it.

I'm really surprised I was the only person to vote for the Volk Han vs Kohsaka match in August. I also thought Ilyukhin vs Tamura would finish higher. I thought both of those matches were classics.

285-T. Ric Flair vs Jumbo Tsuruta (AJPW - 6/8/1983) Total Points: 77 # of Ballots: 1 High Vote: Kadaveri – 24
I need to watch this again. It is a match that at one time would have absolutely made my list, but I haven’t watched it in a long time.
275. Don Kernodle and Sgt. Slaughter vs Jay Youngblood & Ricky Steamboat (NWA - 3/12/1983) Total Points: 79 # of Ballots: 1 High Vote: Tim Livingston – 22
Blown away by this only getting one vote. I didn’t have it on my ballot obviously, but I’m surprised this has fallen this far out of favor.
271-T. Al Perez vs Invader I (WWC - 10/26/1986) Total Points: 82 # of Ballots: 2 High Vote: Elliott – 29
This was on my list for about two seconds. It fell off, but it is one of my favorite matches that will likely always just be outside my list.
259-T. Orange Cassidy vs. PAC (AEW - 2/29/2020) Total Points: 86 # of Ballots: 2 High Vote: Darrenn – 28
I’m fascinated by the monster ratings we are seeing for some modern matches, especially AEW. I’m not complaining at all. I think it is awesome. I knew Darrenn was really high on this.
248-T. Bryan Danielson vs. Kenny Omega (AEW - 9/22/2021) Total Points: 93 # of Ballots: 1 High Vote: Gramsci – 8
This one blows my mind. I love the match and think it really overdelivered in my high expectations. A top 10 spot is cool to see.
230-T. Bryan Danielson vs Low Ki (JAPW – 6/7/2002) Total Points: 102 # of Ballots: 2 High Vote: Tetsujin – 46
Also, blown away that this only got two votes. It seems like it is well thought of in our group. I assumed we would see it on at least a few more.
203-T. Giant Baba vs Destroyer (JWA – 3/5/1969) Total Points: 120 # of Ballots: 6 High Vote: Elliott – 56
It is weird to see this make 6 ballots and still be outside the top 200. I guess that comes with the territory with voting like this. It is a great match though, so folks should watch it and vote for it.

I love the Tamura/Ilyukhin match. It is something I could see voting for later. I also really like that Han v Kohsaka match, but it isn't something I considered really. I think outside a hand full of elite shoot style matches, this group is a little more divided on what the next batch that belong in the conversation are and in turn what gets votes varies a bit.

I liked the Han-Kohsaka matches a great deal, but I confess I had a hard time evaluating them in the context of this project. I kind of wish I found room for one and since I am kind of a noob I couldn’t really distinguish. I will need to rewatch the August match closely.

Cap nailed what I was trying to say in a clear succinct way:)

Regarding the Final Conflict access might be an issue, I found it to rewatch online and a key 10 minutes or so was cut, I didn’t feel like I could rate it fairly.
As it is was kind of a bubble consideration.
