Prêmios Wrestling Observer Newsletter 2016 [A grande vitória da NJPW e o bicampeão fenomenal]
Passado o ano de 2016, chegou a hora de apresentar os resultados das votações do Wrestling Observer Newsletter, uma das mais prestigiosas premiações da indústria. Além dos prêmios voltados ao pro-wrestling, também temos premiações voltadas ao MMA, e prêmios onde personalidades de ambas as modalidades concorrem juntas.
Neste ano, mais uma vez a New Japan recebe as maiores premiações, ganhando em várias das principais categorias, além de AJ Styles ser eleito pela segunda vez seguida como o melhor lutador do ano. Entretanto, muitas mudanças interessantes ocorreram em algumas categorias, tanto com tops totalmente diferentes dos de 2015, como com vencedores bastante inusitados.
Então, aqui estão os resultados completos das votações, com os números de votos e as menções honrosas para cada categoria:
