ROOKIE:Hook (although nwa champ Kamille Brickhouse had longer experience retaining OFFICIAL title by perfect record)
MOST IMPROVED:Mandy Rose (who compared to 4X belt collector/bullet club member/3time X champ Ace Austin didn't have HALF the breakthrough year he had)
COMEBACK:Taya Valkyrie (everyone got this highly obvious vote right knowing all the SIX multi-brand belts she earned and also proving wwe never deserved her)
INSPIRATIONAL:Jon Moxley (while mox was pretty inspiring in his own right 3rd place runner up Josh Alexander deserved this more between overall example he set returning after extra sad title loss,6 month absence & family trial opposing moose)
POPULAR:Jon Moxley (sometimes its necessary to vote against highly publicized stars so my vote went to 5X iwgp jr & 4X tournament champ "time bomb" Hiromu Takahashi,who has become 2020's Kushida)
MOST HATED:MJF (voting again for 2021 winner was too easy so this vote went to very deserving ex-"wrestling god" Moose who showed considerable improvement between terrorizing alexander's family, promo work and callihan/maclin physicality)
FEUD:MJF vs CM Punk (of course this was deserving of win however I went against convention voting for Moose vs Alexander which had 5 pre-set months before 4 week match buildup, extra sentimental family element & world title ending)
INDEPENDENT WRESTLER:Matt Cardona (this was a year late for cardona when he had multiple belts/better consistency so my vote was for "debonair millionaire" Darius Carter who led successful faction,went form 2-3 belts AND won super8 tourney)
MATCH:Rhodes vs Rollins (EXTRA confusing knowing this was their FIFTH bout plus seth never won ONCE. the overall clear choice was FTR/Briscoes title clash II which combined technical element of #1 with personal emotion/ironman elements by 3falls stipulation)
FACTION:Bloodline (runner up Blackpool Combat Club should've won for multiple reasons: 1-3 belts,non interfearance singles wins,more menacing manager,far better unpredictability,etc)
TAG TEAM:FTR (between overall belt record & ring skill either they or FAR more successful Briscoe Brothers would've won for their 4X gcw/roh wins,impact/hog/crockett cup AND hall of fame status)
WOMAN:Bianca Belair (while bianca repeated highly solid back-to-back year my vote went for nwa champion Kamille Brickhouse who through her rookie years made seamless transition from ex-valet to wrestler,outlasted strictly business group before becoming undefeated almost 1-1/2+ year title holder)
WRESTLER:Roman Reigns (who doesn't come CLOSE to far superior impact champ Josh Alexander who rebounded from 1st title loss,6 month absence,new brand contract,family collateral damage,overcoming Moose then EARNING every title defense on his own)
