We have this as our 2006 MOTY segundacaida.blogspot.com/2017/03/all-time-moty-list-head-to-head.htmlDevil's Rejects look like a group of cannibal hillbillies and unleash a shit ton of nasty violence on the face team, great baby face performances by Ace Rockwell and Slim J and tons of big bumps and mauling. Great finish and nutty postmatch, I am not sure how many people have watched this, but it is awesome

Devils Rejects was my favorite angle of the decade. It felt like a year's worth of TV built to this. Just an awesome level of violence. I haven't seen this since it happened and I really need to revisit it.

I'll second this. It was a great blow off to a 6 month long feud. The level of violence was ... unsettling but it fit in the context of the feud. The whole NWA Anarchy vs Devils Rejects feud was pretty violent and pretty bonkers. My favorite part of the whole thing is how in the mid 2000s with wrestling completely exposed, nothing is a secret, The Devil's Rejects were able to draw some serious white heat with a really cartoony gimmick. That's pretty awesome.

I'll third this. I loved it when I rewatched it recently, though I'm not entirely sure it would make a top 100. Still you have a great underdog performance from Ace and some really fun fat guy offense from the hosses in this. Plus Shadow Jackson at his peak is always awesome to behold. And the post-match is in fact tremendous. Great match.

This is pretty great stuff. Total unhinged violence that makes you really sit up and take note. It is the sort of chaos and violence that you find far more often in PR or Lucha Brawls, something all together different about the tone and the aesthetic and the action all coming together.
It is funny to think of this in comparison to other WarGames matches (which I now want to revisit some of the better ones) as well as compared to some of all time bloody brawls.
I don't know if this makes my list next year, likely not, but it is well worth considering and I wouldn't bat an eye of it showed up on someone else's list.

I just got onto these pods and listed to the one with Makabe. Great stuff. I'll be checking this out soon. Fantastic match and I am looking forward to hearing/reading your thoughts on it.

Setting aside the fact that there's only one ring for a war games match (booooo!) this is unbelievably great. Maybe a top 10 MOTD? Something like that. It's so great. That superplex would've made Jerry Blackwell proud.
