A lot of spot matches then? It's all a matter of opinion, Shisen has a bunch of Bobby Jaggers matches on his.

Triple H/Taker III HIAC @ Mania. Don't agree with a lot of those choices (at least in terms of matches I've seen) but debating star ratings for a match is as useful as counting sprinkles on a doughnut

As crazy as Undertaker/Mankind was at King o the Ring, that match was basically two monumental spots. Hardly 5 stars.
Also, I'm throwing in Daniel Bryan v. Sheamus at Extreme Rules, and Cena/Lesnar from the same show, because why not? |

was gonna say Bryan/Sheamus but only ever seen it once so maybe I just got a bit excited when seeing it "live". Cena/Lesnar was certainly a bit special

I watched Bryan/Sheamus three times, and I was only on drugs the first time. Each time was great.

The historical importance of Kojima vs Tenzan is huge, but I wouldn't give the match itself 5 stars.

Chainsaw Charlie/Cactus Jack v. NAO @ WM XIV seems like it would fit your list.
