Here's the first ever Wrestler of the Month and Promo of the Month.
This is for August 2008.
Wrestler of the Month: JA
Let's just say I didn't stay up all night trying to pick this one. JA won the World Heavyweight Title at Aggression 38, beating "Triple X" Sean Stevens in a match that seemed to have everything. He survived a meat-hook stabbing and multiple Fallen interferences to take home gold. On a side note, Tom Holzerman was less than a month from his marriage date, and still managed to pull off wins for JA AND Priest & Eisenkreuz.
Runner-up: Craig Miles
Miles single-handedly defeated one of the best tag teams in EPW, Second Coming, to move his team (with Beast) to the KOTC Finals. He took one hell of a beating and used his in-ring expertise to sneak out a win. It's a testament to the talent of these two wrestlers that despite rarely seeing eye-to-eye, they've been able to dominate the competition on their way to the KOTC Finals. It's especially impressive that Miles' first match in EPW was Round One of the KOTC.

Promo of the Month: MAIN EVENT: World Heavyweight Title match- Thread #7, JA's third promo.
I felt this was the best promo during the Agression 38 promo period. It was very aggressive and biting. It had just the right amount of sarcasm and there was a lot of KOTC talk, which was appropriate because we're in the midst of it in '08 while the tournament itself has so much history for Stevens, JA and Dis/Troy. The Melton rebuke was strong. Overall, I felt this was the best roleplay of August because it challenged Triple X and was exceptionally tight, leaving no mistakes for Stevens to exploit.
