Nick’s Picks: The 2009 WWE Slammy Awards

By Nick Paglino

OMG Moment of the Year:

How this is different from the Extreme Moment of the Year I’ll never know, so I’m just going to say another fun, OMG/Extreme moment this year was when John Cena tossed Edge into the crowd with The Attitude Adjustment.

I don’t think the "Damn" moment of the year will be presented this time around as that has gone away, so I will skip that one.

Match of the Year:

There have been some great matches this year, as there are every year, which makes this a tough category to choose, however, I have to say that for the second year in a row, HBK takes the honor. Shawn Michaels and The Undertaker wrestled a classic this year at Wrestlemania, and just like Michaels did with Flair, he had the best match of 2009 in my opinion. Honorable mentions in this category are DX vs Legacy at Breaking Point and Jeff Hardy vs CM Punk at Summerslam.
