ACES & EIGHTS vs. TNA FOR FEUD OF THE YEAR?! WHAT THE F*CK?! That might THE SINGLE DUMBEST THING I have ever seen in an awards thread.

ANd to make matters worse, Roode vs. Storm wasn't even in the top four!

Truth & Kingston better than Hell No, Bad Influence, The Briscoes, and pretty much every team in PWG? WHAT THE F*CK! The fact that no PWG teams were even mentioned is ridiculous.

This seems to be almost exclusively WWE and TNA, with the exception of like Veda Scott.

No. There are some others in there. Cole and Elgin are both listed for most imporved, Pearce vs. Cabana is the #4 Feud of the Year, Steen is listed somewhere. Sara is on the Women of the Year list.

I just don't understand how anyone can come to these conclusions. Even if you are exclusively looking at WWE and TNA, some of these choices are just ridiculous, and if you are including indies (which this seems to do)...

These are the same people who give Miz and Gail Kim their top 1 spot for wrestler of the year. Let's not be surprised with their choices.

BRM, do you have the source for the list?

Wikipedia, corroborated by a post on another forum that a Google search turned up in my attempt to make sure this wasn't just someone screwing with Wikipedia.
