What's your favourite match of all time?
 
Mine is Hogan vs Rock Wrestlemania 18.

This is an instance where the crowd added so friggen much to the match. Canadian crowds are the greatest

Mine is still the hart / michaels ironman match at WM 12, mainly for nostalgic reasons.

Real close seconds are taker / michaels at WM 25 and 26,

Real close thirds are benoit / angle at RR '03, angle / lesnar at WM 19 and maybe SS '03

Shisen Kopf 07-15-2013 11:34 AM

I was at that Rasslemania and the crowd made that match b/c of me. Best match ever was that ERAG match from last year. Am I rite Owenbrown?

CWK 07-15-2013 12:35 PM

Bret Hart vs. British Bulldog at SummerSlam 1992

Dude Marsh 07-15-2013 12:37 PM

Either:

Bret vs Austin at Wrestlemania 13
or
Steve Austin vs Dude Love at Over the Edge

CSL 07-15-2013 01:21 PM

still HBK/Mankind from Mind Games '96 probably

SlickyTrickyDamon 07-15-2013 01:33 PM

CM Punk Vs. John Cena Money in the Bank. Don't think a hyped match like that every delivered as well as that one.

Tommy Gunn 07-15-2013 01:52 PM

HHH vs. Curtis Axel - 60 minute Ironman Match on Raw last month

screech 07-15-2013 01:54 PM

Hardys vs Edge and Christian - Ladder Match, No Mercy 99.

Can never get tired of that match.

seapig4 07-15-2013 02:19 PM

Bret vs Austin - wm 13

Curtis 07-15-2013 02:22 PM

The Undertaker Vs The Game Triple H at WrestleMania X-7.

I know this a controversial choice but I liked it way better than the rematch and even better than the main event of Rock/Austin. Maybe its because I was young back then but I remember being ballistic bout seeing this match. And I really thought Taker was gonna lose...

dronepool 07-15-2013 02:26 PM

Essa Rios w/ Lita vs Gillberg

That's such a good one too. I like when Mankind just hits himself in the knee with a spike or pen or whatever. Showed how insane he was supposed to be.

MoFo 07-15-2013 03:16 PM

Breakdown - In Your House (1998)

Cage match for #1 contendership
The Rock vs Mankind vs Ken Shamrock

MoFo 07-15-2013 03:18 PM

ORRRR

WWF Judgement Day (2000)

Iron man match for WWF Title
The Rock vs Triple H w/ Shawn Michaels guest ref

HTrain90 07-15-2013 03:25 PM

The first one that comes to mind is Austin v. Hart, WM13.

Also, anything with HBK and Taker besides Rumble 1998 (Ground Zero, Hell In A Cell, WM25, WM26).

HBK v. Mankind is a very great pick, too. Made HBK do something he didn't do a lot in 1996, and it was fun to watch.

I always enjoyed Shawn Michaels v. Vader from SummerSlam 1996, as well. As a kid watching, I thought Vader was unbeatable. It was a great match, botched elbow drop and all.

But since we're saying "favorite" and not "greatest," I'll leave it to Shawn Michaels v. Shelton Benjamin from RAW back in the day. Quick TV match, but holy hell those guys tore it up.

RiX1024 07-15-2013 05:24 PM

Bulldog vs Bret at Summerslam 1992

RiX1024 07-15-2013 05:27 PM

also Edge/Christian vs Hardy Boyz Ladder Match No Mercy 99.

Lock Jaw 07-15-2013 05:30 PM

Melina vs. Alicia Fox

Lock Jaw 07-15-2013 05:31 PM

But seriously, probably Bret Hart/Steve Austin at WM13. The match that "solidified" me as wrestling fan 4 life.

Zeeboe 07-15-2013 07:00 PM

Bret Hart vs. Stone Cold - Wrestlemania 13.

Corporate CockSnogger 07-15-2013 07:02 PM

No idea. Probably something like Mankind vs The Rock - I quit match or Austin vs Vince in a steel cage since they seem to stand out in my mind as being the most fun I ever had watching wrestling.

Flash Funk 07-15-2013 07:28 PM

Owen versus Bret at WrestleMania X.

James Steele 07-15-2013 07:45 PM

HHH/Austin at No Way Out 2001
HBK/HHH at SummerSlam 2002
HBK/HHH/Benoit at WrestleMania XX (**Forever tarnished though.)
HBK/Cena at WrestleMania 23

Those 3 matches are what wrestling is all about to me.

James Steele 07-15-2013 07:49 PM

The last 2 minutes of HBK/Cena crushed my soul. Never felt so drained after a PPV. I was absolutely positive and convinced that Shawn Michaels was going to become WWE Champion.

On the other side of the coin, I literally couldn't stop smiling after WrestleMania XX. That ending, while now ruined, was the absolute happiest I have ever felt watching pro wrestling. It was a beautiful story because it was real. JR screaming about Benoit's 20 year odyssey and how Benoit and Guerrero had traveled the world together and finally had taken their rightful spots on top of the wrestling world. You couldn't write a happier moment nor a more heart-breaking ending both to the PPV and the ultimate end of these men's lives.

HBK/HHH and HHH/Austin are just both beautifully brutal matches that tied into deep and meaningful feuds that hooked me as a fan. I still believe HBK/HHH is the greatest feud of all time. They never had a match that wasn't at least really good, and most of them were great.

Seth82 07-16-2013 01:38 AM

Ric Flair vs Ricky Steamboat trilogy from 1989.

DaveWadding 07-16-2013 01:40 AM

Bret/Perfect Summerslam 91.

Fignuts 07-16-2013 01:43 AM

Hogan/Rock

Though I'm biased because I was there. LIve, it was like no match you've ever seen in your life. Emotional doesn't begin to describe the crowd there. My buddy, who's a big legitamitly tough dude, had tears rolling down his face by the end.

That must have been amazing

Shisen Kopf 07-16-2013 07:53 AM

I was there too. Didnt cry though.

voncouch 07-16-2013 12:56 PM

Royal Rumble 92.

My favorite match type + Ric Flair showing what he can do against 29 fresh faces in a new company and selling for EVERYONE + Bobby Heenan giving the performance of a lifetime

Bad News Gertner 07-16-2013 01:00 PM

That was a gem. Anybody remember Bob Backlund held the record for longest time in the Rumble for a long as time?

Anybody Thrilla 07-16-2013 06:09 PM

I'm glad Steele mentioned HBK/Cena. That match was fantastic. So many people shit on it, probably just because Cena won. So good, though.

Nark Order 07-16-2013 06:26 PM

Bret Hart vs Stone Cold Steve Austin at Wrestlemania 13 is probably my favorite match ever.

As far as favorite "match" or "segment" goes, since I don't know if you could qualify it as an actual match is Roddy Piper vs Goldust in the Hollywood Backlot Brawl at WM 12. I watch it like once a month. Cracks me up big time every time I watch it.

It's not as bad as people might make it out to be. The Raw rematch was much better though which kinda taints it for me in hindsight.

That.

Also, the first Taker-HBK match and HBK-HHH from SummerSlam '02.

Road Warrior 07-17-2013 07:22 AM

Not sure they're mine all time fav's, but I really enjoy HBK-Razor from WM10 and
Piper - Bret Hart from WM 8.
