Ric Flair versus Sting @ Clash of the Champions I = 8.4
One of the early classics of the NWA/WCW era came in at a 8.4 which means it did not score as high as the Jericho vs Michaels classic, however it is still a very strong rating and a damn fine matchup.
-----
The next match is from the old 'E-C-DUB' and is definitely a match that any hardcore wrestling fan must see. It definitely is a different style of match from the two matches we've rated previously, as in this match there is crowd diving, chairs, tables, high spots, Fonzy & 3,900 screaming ECW fans. THE WHOLE FUCKING SHOW vs THE NEW F'N SHOW for the ECW World Television Championship!

TBH, I am shocked in a good way by your responce. I was certain you would give it an 11 out of 10.

I'm throwing down an 8. It was a very good match, and certainly made room for JL to advance in the world of wrestling...and I remember seeing the first time and nearly shitting myself. However, as was previously mentioned, Hardcore Heaven was better. Also, it's a wonderful spot match, but it does lack serious connection to anything. Plus it gets almost nothing going for it in terms of build up, which in pro wrestling does count for a lot. So 8 from me.

The perfect ECW match. Just not the perfect wrestling match.

I really like the match at Hardcore Heaven better.... it was a lot shorter and had a much faster pace. The thing I don't like about Living Dangerously is it is 30 minutes of great spot...rest for 2 or 3 minutes... and so on.

I'm going to give it a 10 because I am an 'E-C-DUB' mutant.

If you're gonna add stinkers into this, can I nominate Kane and Undertaker vs Kronik from Unforgiven 2001?

Great match but I refuse for it to earn a higher rating than HBK vs Y2J at Wrestlemania.

The Hardcore Heaven 2000 match was even better.
It was '99 (Unless they had another in 2000 that I forgot about).
But yeah, the HH '99 one for me was better, love how Lynn splits RVDs eyebrow open legit with an elbow.
Still classic though. This one gets a 9.

I'm an impatient guy, so when I first saw this match, I was expecting a classic from the beginning. I did think RVD posed WAY too much in the beginning, but now that the match grew on me, I give it a......
