A couple of things:</p><p> </p><p>
This is from 2001- mid 2006, using Genadi's 01 mod. Longest save I've had and all of these matches have some sort of story behind them, which I'm really proud of. If you want any more details about a certain match or w/e just quote it, I didn't wanna write a paragraph for every match because I'm lazy, lol.</p><p> </p><p>
My top 10 isn't really about match rating. As you can see I have an 100 on my bonus match list, because I value importance too. There were some 100s that I didn't feel really need to be on this list because they were on road to shows, or were filler matches in a G1 or something. I tried to put the 10 that mattered the most in the history of the company in this era, used the bonus matches to put some on there that I personally like (but were still really good matches).</p><p> </p><p>
Also, my top 10 isn't in any sort of order. Just put them on the list as I found them in the game.</p>
