The 2020 ComicBook.com Golden Issue Awards Nominees for Wrestling
While 2020 saw the entertainment and sports worlds flipped on their heads, pro wrestling managed to keep chugging along through the COVID-19 pandemic. WWE moved all of its production into the Performance Center and later, the ThunderDome while other major companies like AEW, New Japan, Ring of Honor and Impact Wrestling kept things rolling by wrestling in empty arenas and small crowds. And yet, despite all of that, there was still some legitimately great wrestling this year.
Drew McIntyre became a new fan-favorite on his rise to the main event, Roman Reigns gave fans the heel turn they d been begging to see for years, Sasha Banks and Bayley dominated every WWE brand before turning on each other, AEW provided some of the best tag team wrestling in years and major stars like Edge and Sting made their shocking returns to the business.
