Your Favorite Unsung Matches

**Fox** · 03-11-2006, 01:06 AM

There are some matches that most everyone recognizes as greats: HBK/Bret Hart (Iron Man Match, WM 12), Rock/Hogan (WM 18), Steamboat/Savage (WM 3), Andre/Hogan (WM 3), Eddie/Mysterio (Halloween Havoc 97).

This thread is not for those matches. This thread is for your personal favorite unsung matches; the ones most people have forgotten about, but live with you today for some obscure reason.

For example, here are mine:

1) Jeff Hardy vs. Chris Jericho - No Way Out 2002 -

-This was the match that Test was fired for not attending because of adverse weather conditions, so Jeff Hardy was substituted instead, and they had probably Jeff Hardy's last good match in WWE. There are some really great spots, it gets adequate air time, and Jericho just does a great job of making Jeff look good during the era where Jeff couldn't do anything right.

2) Chris Benoit vs. Triple H - No Mercy 2000 (99?) -

-In the first one-on-one encounter between HHH and Benoit on PPV, these two had an amazing technical war. Every move was crisp and meaningful, and both guys were absolutely on top of their game. A five star match that most people probably don't remember.

3) Edge vs. Christian - IC Title Ladder Match - No Mercy 2001

-This was during the Invasion, right after Christian had joined the Alliance. Edge and Christian had a very solid ladder match with some innovative moves and a great finish that saw Edge hit Christian with the Con-Chair-To on top of the ladders.

Post your own favorite unsung matches from WCW, WWE or ECW.
