PPV OF THE YEAR!!!
March Madness. Felt like a really monumental show with the rise of Sidney Grey, the end of Mark Flynn's reign of terror, etc.
ROLEPLAY OF THE YEAR!!!
My favourite of the year was Sarah Lacklan - The Restoration of Anarchy Part III - SarTalk (

BIGGEST OOC MOMENT!!!
New rp rules, I guess. Feels like a bigger deal for the new year though, but the moment happened in 2023.
BRAND OF THE YEAR!!!
Warfare gets the nod due to the first half of the year, but it's only just. The opt ins really started dropping off later in the year, and I think Madness became a really prominent part of the fed under its Duke era. Still, Warfare gets my vote.
TAG TEAM OF THE YEAR!!!
"The Just US League" Blue Tango and The Atomic Bat. Really the only logical vote.
NEWCOMER OF THE YEAR!!!
Actually had Dionysus in here, but I went back just to see when Sidney Grey actually debuted. Roster page went up in Dec 22 and I think first match was Jan 23. The first half of the year she dominated. Sidney Grey is my vote.
RETURNING STAR OF THE YEAR!!!
Thunder Knuckles - came back from a break to take the Universal Title and cement himself as a major singles name alongside his already impressive tag career.
OOC HANDLER OF THE YEAR!!!
(Copied from Corey) Thad Duke: for Madness and for being a great brand ambassador all around
MATCH OF THE YEAR!!!
Bobby Bourbon vs Mark Flynn - March Madness. The insanity of some of Flynn's title stipulations was amazing, and the conclusion here was fantastic with great effort put forth by both.
BRAND MVP!!!
Warfare: Was tossing up between two people here, and ultimately settled on Mark Flynn because the other person will get a nod later on.
Anarchy: EDWARD. Sidney Grey makes a run for second place burt EDWARD was Anarchy for most of the year.
Madness: Honestly I think there are three main names here. I think I'd get a look in with Kieran King for trying to promote things via Twitter and trying to work to get others over. Penelope helped add some credibility to the brand when she came in. But really, through most of the year, Myra Rivers has been the champ and the focus of the show. She gets my vote.
I don't think we vote on Cross-Brand. Any reference to another brand is likely a product of this being copy and pasted from last year.
STAR OF THE YEAR!!!
I mentioned with Warfare MVP I was tossing up with someone else, and that person is Bobby Bourbon. I think, of all people, I remember more of what Bourbon has done throughout the year than anybody else, and thus he gets my vote
