Wade Barrett (6 percent)<br \/>\nOthers (30 percent)<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><strong>Powell&#8217;s Notes:<\/strong><\/span> Pat McAfee took home the award for the second year in a row. He won the award with 26 percent of the vote last year and added another two percent this year. Excalibur finished as the runner-up for the second year in a row. It&#8217;s nice to see Michael Cole crack the top five, which is clearly in recognition of how much his work improved with McAfee and, in part, once the shackles were removed during Vince McMahon&#8217;s time away. Corey Graves returned to the list after failing to cracking the top five last year, and Barrett is new to the top five for his work on NXT and Smackdown. Falling out of the top five were Jim Ross, Tony Schiavone, and Taz, who all tied for sixth with each man getting four percent of the vote.<\/p>\n<div id=\"prowr-1402350320\" class=\"prowr-after-content prowr-entity-placement\"><a class=\"spreaker-player\" href=\"https:\/\/www.spreaker.com\/show\/pwboom\" data-resource=\"show_id=3275525\" data-theme=\"light\" data-playlist=\"show\" data-width=\"100%\" data-height=\"340px\">Listen to \"Pro Wrestling Boom Podcast\" on Spreaker.<\/a><script async src=\"https:\/\/widget.spreaker.com\/widgets.js\"><\/script><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>By Jason Powell, ProWrestling.net Editor&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":5,"featured_media":108198,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"episode_type":"","audio_file":"","podmotor_file_id":"","podmotor_episode_id":"","cover_image":"","cover_image_id":"","duration":"","filesize":"","filesize_raw":"","date_recorded":"","explicit":"","block":"","itunes_episode_number":"","itunes_title":"","itunes_season_number":"","itunes_episode_type":"","_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[4781,1426,2],"tags":[2486,2321,86,630,210,3595,37,128,63,101],"class_list":["post-124419","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-2022-awards","category-awards","category-newsticker","tag-aew","tag-gcw","tag-impact-wrestling","tag-mlw","tag-njpw","tag-njpw-strong","tag-nxt","tag-pro-wrestling","tag-roh","tag-wwe"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.7 -
