Best opening matches

[Testicle]

Just watched Halloween Havoc '98 and this topic came to mind. I love a great opening match. Let's post some videos and discuss what can be the second most important match on any card.

IMO a great opening match gets the crowd riled up, without tiring them out, and gets the crowd ready for the rest of the card. Also a great opening match should set the stage without stealing / detracting what you are supposed to see later on (i.e. If Sin Cara is in the main-event, you don't put Bourne in the opener and have him fly all over the place). This is pretty much a lost concept, as wrestling on TV usually doesn't use this theory anymore and instead prefers to put the crowds to sleep with 20 minute cluster-fuck promos.

Anywho let's have at it.
