Directly nominating this, it clearly deserves it.
Yeah this is one of the best spofests ever done. They use the gimmick so perfectly, and they showcase their unbelievable good shape and athleticism. AJ's the glue that holds this one together (what an all time great year he had) and watching him struggling to hang on with a bad arm was amazing, but gotta give credit to Williams too, who played his role very well. Sabin executed everything with a lot of viciousness behind and the match would be worse without him, but he showed no personality whatsoever. I even liked that AJ botched the catch at the end, it was kinda believable to me due to his bad arm and it didn't ruin the awesomeness and shock of the jump. This one doesn't have much more dept, but it is a far more extraordinary pyshical display that you would normally see in any other match.
Yet another match that deserves serious consideration for GME. Hell, I think it's even better than the famous Unbreakable triple threat, and up there with Joe/AJ and the Final Deletion for best TNA match ever. Right now, it aaaalmost makes my list (#104), but with a rewatch closer to the deadline I might end up including it. It is so unique and fun. ****1/4
