TNA Wrestler of the Year

A poll has just gone up on the TNA site with the following on the shortlist:

James Storm
Jeff Hardy
Austin Aries
Bobby Roode
Bully Ray

So who do you think should win?

The only one I dont think who deserves to be there is the current champ!

Jeff's inner monologue thinks you're a douche!

Of course he does!

I wanted to vote Gunner myself.

Well Ive just cast my vote for the Kevin Arnold of wrestling.

Kevin Arnold, as in the wonder years?

Lost me with that one! No wonder I lost the v2 wrestling quiz!

Yes as in the Wonder Years! Kevin used to always have the inner monologue thing going on. Would John Dorian be better?

Bobby Roode. I missed his best run and still think he's the best man TNA has. Other than Matt Morgan, who I voted for in every one of wwe's slammys too. Morgan and Hogan had the real kiss of the year.

I would have gone for Daniels personally, if Not him then Roode, Aries should have been a shoe-in but his botched title run set him back at least 6 months imo

that was the writers fault though not his

It happens, some wrestlers take their chance and cement their place, some let average to poor writing hold them down. Samoa Joe would be star of the year had he been written so

Thought he was less than impressive during that point as well

I think its gotta be Bobby Roode. He had the longest reign in TNA history during the year of 2012, and had some great matches with the likes of Hardy, Anderson and Storm. The IT Factor cut great promo's throughout his run as well. I'd give Aries the silver medal, with Hardy at 3rd due to his impressive redemption storyline.

Predictably (and wrongly) it went to Jeff Hardy.

Just goes to show you should never allow fans to vote for awards.

I think Aries had the best claim to it, being arguably the best wrestler on the roster AND the longest-reigning X Division champion.

Roode is a good (if over-the-top) heel but personally I don't rate him as that great a wrestler.

Nothing against Hardy (matter of fact I love the guy) and he is undoubtedly a great wrestler, but he wasn't really in the picture until the run-up to BFG.
