Half Year Review 4: Moment of The Year
This is the fourth of a daily series I will be doing until June 30.
I will use articles and slideshow lists to cover and review TNA and WWE events over the past six months. Thus the name, Half Year Review.
Todays article involves the moment of the year. This article involves the top moment in pro wrestling making it the first to involve TNA in my series.

I have compiled a list of nominees that have potential in my opinion to be moment of the year, when I say year during this series I mean half year.
At this point I don't know who is going to be the winner, after I have done a 3 line summary of each moment I will hopefully have a better idea.
CM Punk cashes in
The most recent moment of the nominees. Because of Hardy being face I thought this moment was surprising and was wondering how it would work in future weeks and I suppose it's been O.K.
Orton punts Mr. McMahon
I couldn't see this coming. I knew Vince was returning but didn't know what he was going to do. When he came back and got Steph to re hire Jericho I was still confused. Then when he did the sin I was amazed. It lead to a great Road to WrestleMania rivalry between Orton and the McMahons.
Stone Cold Induction at WrestleMania
When all the inductees stood on their stars they all got nice cheers, none anywhere near as much as Stone Cold. After he walked off I thought he didn't want us to see him get emotion or something and got a bit concerned. He didn't get upset. Austin graced the ring one last time as only he knows how.
Mick Foley hits Jeff Jarrett with Chair
Up to this point Foley hadn't been doing too much on Impact except from a few disputes with Jarrett. This was seemingly a heel turn despite Foley's excuses. A nice twist to end Impact with.
Cena thrown through spotlight
Big Show came out seemingly to throw him off the stage, I say that as if that's a regular occurrence. That probably would have made this list too. To then turn and throw him threw a spotlight was simply shocking. The explosion was awesome and brilliant entertainment, I respect Cena for putting his body on the line like that.
Edge attacks Kofi Kingston before Chamber match
After losing earlier in the night Edge had an interesting segment backstage with Vickie. This ending up making Edge playing a part in the Raw elimination chamber match. This was a match he went on to win. Top moment from a top pay per view.
Mick Foley's Title Win
Don't know about you guys but I hadn't expected this. Foley isn't anywhere fit enough to be world champion but I must say he has played his role perfectly so far and it's surprisingly worked.
Matt attacks Jeff with Chair
The Hardy boys. How could he attack and cost his brother the his first world title. He did and it was well worked.
HBK kicks out of Tombstone
I can't think of many times I have seen anyone kick out of a tombstone so trust Shawn Michaels to find a way. After taking a chokeslam and a last ride and one hell of a match no-one could have expected him to kick out of that, and Undertakers face after was a quality picture.
Bobby Lashley Debuts
At the time this seemed huge. Lashley coming out after Lethal Lockdown giving Angle an evil laugh. Although this has completely died down now as he hasn't been seen on there since.
Triple H chases Orton through his house
When that doorbell went I think we all know what we were about to see. It's hard to explain the story but he basically went through the house searching for him then threw him through a window, if you haven't seen it for whatever reason search it.
Mysterio gets Unmasked
At extreme rules Jericho vowed to take his mask, and he did. I didn't think he would at all. They didn't promote it much and the ending all happened so quick.
Here's a run down of the Top 3 Moments taken from the nominees above for the Moment of the Year.........
In 3rd Place......
Cena thrown through spotlight.
In 2nd Place.....
HBK kicking out of the Tombstone.
And the Number 1 Moment of the Year is.......
Randy Orton punting Mr.McMahon.
