----Devon Day was put on a ballot for Most Underrated earlier this morning. A very good pick. A real good worker that some of you guys have never seen and he has worked in this area for a long time.
----Gimmick of the Year is very similar to last year when the Posse was on 95% of the ballots. Posse is still getting some nominations this year, but "The Baron" Malkanvain has been on probably 98% of them this year. Is this foreshadowing him winning his first ever RRO Award??
----For those that have not voted for MVP yet, Danny B Goode should also be considered there and maybe in Most Underrated.
----Four of the Top 10 Wrestlers last year have dropped out of the ratings this year and two of them have been in both the 2006 and 2007 Top 10. Top 10 2008 obviously will feature four new entries with one returning from 2006. RRO Top 10 will only be featured in Yearbook 2008!!
----Rookie of the Year is the tightest nomination race this year. One nomination separates four guys. It will probably not be decided upon until the last day.
----Only one wrestler in either the MVP/Wrestler category won the award last year and is leading nominations this year?? Is it DK or Stan Lee??
----The Tag of The Year nominating is being dominated by BLS, but the other 2 positions are being battle out with four different teams and only one was in the Top Five of the Top 10 last year.

RRO AWARDS RACE CONTINUES!!!
----Ok, we got 6 more categories for this week. The only two categories we got left to nominate are TV Match of the Year and Arena Report Match of the Year. I will be waiting to see if they air any new stuff on the final show of Memphis this week. I also plan to attend the DCW show this coming Saturday night, so I might have a match to add to Arena Report. Those matches that are eligible will be posted on Sunday!! Everyone has until 12.30.08 to send in nominees. Nominees will be announced and posted at 12:00 AM on 1.01.09 and you will have 10 days to vote for the winners!! Post your picks on the Kayfabe Message Board or e-mail them to me!! I also have up to the minute awards news right here on this blog!!
----Horizon – Who deserves a contract in the WWE, TNA or ROH?? Last two years this award has been won by Dustin Starr. Even though he has not wrestled as much this year, the stuff he has done outside the business has also proved this guy has a mind to be with the big time. Could he get nominated and win three years in a row?? My picks would also include some of these guys: Brian Thompson [announcer], Cameron Valentine, Byron Willcott [who has a contract, but still eligible here], Eric Wayne, Kid Nikels and the usual of guys like Flash Flanagan, Derrick King and Rodney Mack.
----Most Improved: Who has improved as a worker from last year?? Idol Bane is the leader here in my book as he was almost off the radar last year and is probably going to end up in the Top 10 this year. Cody Melton, Albino Rhino, Pappy and Slim Pickens are my other picks.
----Most Underrated: Who is the most underrated by workers and fans?? A lot of names here including last year’s winner Kilo. AJ Bradley is my top pick along with Chris O’Neal and the following: Cameron Valentine, Mark Justice, Izzy Rotten, Dell Tucker, Psycho, Seth Knight, Christian Jacobs and Rik Burton [for his booking].
----Best Wrestling Web Site: What site do you go to more often?? Everyone is eligible, except www.rronews.com. Dustin Starr’s “World of Wrestling Blog and www.wrestlingnewscenter.com easily lead the pack. Last year’s winner Mid-Southern Message Board should also be considered. I should also mention NBW [who has a real good looking site], WWCW [ditto] and TIWF.
----Columnist of the Year: Sal Corrente is the most constant on this site. Dustin Starr should also be considered for updating his stuff every day. Brian Thompson has good columns. “Axeman” Randall Lewis also gets a mention because he probably is the hardest working guy in wrestling kayfandom.
----Best Female Performer – NEW AWARD – This is the only new category for the year, but I have added it because of the influence of MLW and the level of ladies in this area. My three picks would be in no particular order – Tasha Simone, Su Yung and Lil Bit.
