Patrick's Top 20 Puro of 2008

This is a really odd list, but then again, I have eclectic taste in wrestling and the list has been influenced by my rewatching, which in turn is affected greatly by my waning interest in wrestling. So, in short, this list is put together in a very odd way by what clicked with me at that time, so forgive me if you can't make heads or tails of my odd opinions.

Minoru vs Sawa, but not Hidaka vs Mochizuki? For shame! Everyone continues to overlook the best puro juniors match of 2008.
