Favorite Under 5 Minutes Matches
What are your favorite under five minute matches?
Regal vs. Danielson from NXT comes to mind. It was only about 2:30 but was great. ![]() |

I can't really think of any, so I'm going to cheat a little bit. The CM Punk/Rey Mysterio match from Wrestlemania this year was like 7 minutes long, and was probably the best 7 minute match I've ever seen.

Regal v. Goldberg is good for the wrong reasons.

I'm sure there are other ones, but I loved Brock Lesnar vs. Big Show at Survivor Series 2002. I wasn't a fan of Brock losing his undefeated streak that way, but I just felt like the match was perfectly booked until the finish. It was quick, got to the point, crowd was hot, and the "can Brock hit the F5" hype was answered within like 3 minutes. It woulda been much more memorable if Lesnar would have won IMO.

I know I might be breaking the rules but about 15-30 seconds here but this is one of my favorite short matches ever. It managed to tell such an in depth story and have all the major workings of a big time match in only around 5-6 minutes. Lesnar and Heyman were PERFECT in this. The whole thing just came off great.

Actually, upon inspection, that match was concluded under the 5 minute mark.

How about when Kurt Angle played the switcharoo on Lesnar using his brother as a decoy?
It wasn't much of a match. It was more of a storyline development, but technically it was a match and advanced it's story well. |

When I think of quick matches, I always think of this for some reason! Action starts at around 35 secs.
