The Wrestling Match Thread (Favorites/Classics/Funny/Misc.)

[EmpireWF]

Why the hell not?

You ever find yourself bored and looking to watch some wrestling but never know where to start?

Let's post favorite matches, classics, epically horrible bouts, whatever the mood may strike. I'll start...


This is one of my favorites and I haven't seen it in at least a year. Reasons to love? TAG TEAM WRESTLING, The Hart's and the Steiner's! What more could a boy want?

It's off the WWF Wrestlefest 1994 coliseum home video, probably taped in late 93-early 94. Bret & Owen Hart vs. The Steiner Brothers!

This was my first experience with ECW. I had one of those illegal cable descramblers as a kid and got free pay per view and randomly found this show. The most memorable moment was this right here

The Eddy/Barr vs. Santo/Octagon match, unclipped, is a masterpiece. One of the greatest matches ever. That PPV was groundbreaking, one of my favorite PPV's of all time. In fact, it is my favorite PPV of all time.

[Warner2BruceTD]

I have about a million matches to add to this thread when I get some time.

I can't youtube at work, but here are a couple that popped into my head when I saw the thread...

Ric Flair vs Barry Windham NWA World Wide 1987
Rock n Roll Express vs The Russians (Uncle Ivan and Krusher) NWA World Wide 1985


Both matches were 60 minute classics, RnR won the tag straps and Flair and Windham went to a draw. Both matches were great examples of having an instant classic match without using barbwire or sledgehammers.

Dynamite Kid vs Tiger Mask MSG 1982

Tore down the house in front of a New York crowd that saw things from two incredible performers that were years before it's time. Crisp, stiff ringwork and well placed aerial moves.

[SHOGUN]

One of best ladder matches ever. Londrick FTW!
