- Wakeman's illness: Though we may never know exactly why, the career of Travis Wakeman came to an end following the discovery of what he teremd a life threatening illness.
- Cain Vehicular Assault: Sebastian Cain had one of the best years of any superstar in the TWF, but even he can't hide his past. Richard Ramsley was able to uncover the one blemish on Cain's record.
- PJ Cash and Hollywood: PJ Cash made no secret his dislike for celebrities at TWF events, especially following his loss at WrestleMania which he blamed on Adam Sandler and Kevin James. Spotlight stars such as Gallagher and Holly Madison found this out first hand.
- The departure of Mike: After being betrayed by Eddie Saint James and Monica, two superstars he felt he had brought to the forefront, Money Mike decided to walk out on the TWF. It's unclear when or even if, we will see him again.

Richard Ramsley vs. Sebastian Cain @ MeltDown 2009- 39% of vote
- Trish helps Wakeman: Fans knew there was a chance Travis Wakeman may be wrestling his last match, but they didn't realize what would happen after his WrestleMania loss to Randy Orton. As Melina berated and slapped at Wakeman, Trish Stratus came out of nowhere to his aid. It was a bittersweet moment, but longtime TWF fans could've have seen a better way for Wakeman to go out.
- Oliver wins the title: Although he felt it should've happened years ago, Jason Oliver's climb to the top of the TWF was well chronicoled. At MeltDown, he finally reached the plateau, defeating Randy Orton to become World champion.
- Turrican is Thompson: After years of being away from the TWF, Shane Thompson pulled off the mask of the wacky Turrican to reveal he really hadn't been gone at all.
- Edge is drafted: Who can forget Edge winning the Universal title from Jordan Rockwell, only to be drafted to Rampage moments later and subsequently, having to forfeit his newfound gold.

Lifetime Achievement Award: I had decided who was going to get this year's award last year, and then I changed my mind. But, I thought about it again, carefully, and I came to the conclusion that this person deserves it. I know he's not as involved as he used to be, by his own admission, and I know he's not as big a wrestling fan as he once was, but this is a lifetime award, and his body of work in the TWF shows he deserves it. He's a member who hasn't always been a favorite of everyone, and even I didn't particularly care for him at times, but he won my respect and he won me as a friend, forever. This guy was as interested in the TWF at one time as anyone has ever been. I remember when I would be asking him about what happened in the TWF, things I didn't always remember myself. He was the first member to ever pick up the phone and call me on a regular basis, to talk wrestling, or just to talk life. He asked for my advice on several occassions, and I was glad to give it to him. I really feel 2009 was his year in general, and I hope this award solidifies that. Alex Maider, you are this year's Lifetime Achievement Award winner. Congratulations, my friend.
