I’m on vacation, so I’m posting my usual July 4 column a bit early…this week.

When I post this column each July 4th holiday, I remember how many years it’s been since the death of former WWF referee Joey Marella in an automobile accident on the New Jersey Turnpike, while traveling to Newark, NJ from a WWF show in Ocean City, MD.

SHIMMER Forum members, Fresh93 & CMF put together two lists of SHIMMER’s top 30 matches from each of it’s first two years. 
Year 1:
1. Daizee Haze vs. Rebecca Knox, 2 out of 3 falls match, Vol. 5

CMF- Knox made an immediate impact upon her shimmer debut and instantly became the companies top heel in her match against Allison Danger on Vol. 3. The Haze ended up avenging Danger’s loss to K-Nox on Vol. 4. All this led up to a 2 out of 3 falls match. The match includes the greatest pre-match shenanigans ever. Before the two women locked up they had themselves a good old fashioned dance off. The haze won that round. Then the wrestling commenced and the two women displayed some of the fastest paced chain wrestling involed in a shimmer match at the time. Haze and Knox went hold for hold for the majority of the first round. What I like about this match is that the two not only use chain and technical wrestling, but also include other elements like strong style with big impact moves and some high flying. They did it all in this match and kept it interesting for all three falls. Even after the release of 16 Vol’s this still happens to be one of my favorite shimmer matches.
