Take here for example. Most of the people on this forum are marks for what we call workrate and would have went with either Benoit or Eddie's match as MOTN. But thats not a fair representation of the people who watched the show. I talked to a buddy of mine who watched the show, and his favorite part of the show was Undertaker's match. Now you might think thats insane (I know I did), but I'm sure a lot of people felt that way. Hell I'm sure a lot of people loved seeing Austin stun both Goldberg and Lesnar and therefore felt that was the best match. But on a forum like this, you'll never get a fair assessment of what the 'average' fans thinks about a show.
So just because 90% of the people on this forum feel one way about a match it doesn't mean squat, because like I said the people here are skewed in one direction. If there was an accurate way to get a fair opinion on matches I'd be willing to listen to the results, but I dont see how thats possible.

You're looking into this too much CyNick when you start talking about getting a representative cross section of the people who watched Mania. The point of this topic was obviously geared towards internet smarks in the first place since we're on the internet discussing it. The point of this topic isn't what is the definative best triple threat match ever, its to find out what people OPINIONS are. Since the point of this forum is to post opinions, I don't see how opinions are irrelevant. Just out of curiousity, ( i don't know if you posted it earlier in the thread or not) what is you're favorite triple threat match that you've seen? You don't have to prove it with buyrates and attendance, just your opinion....
