    Steelcage Forums End Of Year Awards 2021

    Better late than never

    That's right it's time to look back at the best and worst of 2021. For those of you unfamiliar with how we did this back in the day, I'm looking for nominees in the following 19 categories. You can nominate as many things as you want for each category and on January 18 (ish) I'll group them together and open a poll for each. Then you can vote on them all and we'll see who wins (or in some cases lose). These are rather informal so have some fun.

    Here are the categories:

    Wrestler Of The Year
    Worst Match Of The Year
    Finisher Of The Year
    Rookie/Newcomer Of The Year
    Promo Of The Year
    Worst Wrestler Of The Year
    Major Show Of The Year
    Worst Major Show Of The Year
    Most Improved Of The Year
    Match Of The Year
    Worst Angle Of The Year
    Moment Of The Year
    Non-Wrestler Of The Year
    Spot Of The Year
    Title Reign Of The Year
    Surprise Of The Year
    Group/Tag Team Of The Year
    Angle Of The Year
    Feud Of The Year
    News Story Of The Year


    You can make multiple posts if you forgot something. Also, if you have another category that might be good, let me know in here and I might add it to the list.

    Go.
