RassleRiot Awards Race 2006

----I would like to thank my committee from last week. I had a response of over 90%, which surprised me, but thanks a lot. And for those that did not read this last week, here is how this is going to work. I will be sending out e-mails to a committee of workers/promoters/writers from this area each week. They will be asked to nominate 5 candidates in each category. They can not nominate themselves. I will narrow it down to 3 candidates per category. Starting on January 1st to midnight on January 10th will be “10 TO VOTE” where all 14 categories – each with 3 candidates - will be presented on one page where everyone will be able to vote. January 14th will be considered the site’s SUPER SUNDAY as I will release all the winners along with a “Yearbook” of facts & figures of 2006 from this area.

--Horizon Star of the Year – This is the guy or team or manager or lady that you think deserves a TNA or WWE contract. The one that stands out above everyone else.

--Manager of the Year – The guy or gal that does the best job around the ring. The best manager/valet in the area.

--Gimmick of the Year – This doesn’t have anything to do about work rate, but they could be a good worker. It has to be about the gimmick. Who works their gimmick the best?? Who do you believe the most when you see them??

--Announcer of the Year – This can be the ring announcer or play by play. We have only one major TV program with Cory Maclin, so this also includes all the guys/gals that work every week doing live play by play.

--Booker of the Year-This has been kayfabe very much in this area until I started reporting different bookers for promotions. Which guy or group of guys has presented the best storylines and finishes all year long??
