I'm drawing a blank everywhere else. I haven't seen vs HHH JD2000, and NWO 01 vs Angle more than once so I can't remember those at all.

Mania 17 is a 5 star match, but the other two certainly are not.

I'm a bit biased on the WM19 one, WM18 is a ***** to me though. Not based off the in ring work, obviously, but everything else.

He's never had one, the closest he's been is with Austin at WM17

PPV Title matches: Flair/Savage, Cena/Umaga and Eddie/JBL would be top ten for me pretty easily. I watched Flair/Savage a month or two ago and it really blew me away with how much it held up.

Nope, not forgetting it. No longer hold it in such high regards.

This match is a marvel to watch. It holds up very well after over 20 years. They paced and executed almost everything perfectly. I think it's one of the better championship matches in WrestleMania history.

Not seen Flair/Savage in sometime, but agree with Yeah about Cena/Umaga and Eddie/JBL deserving high regard. Would probably have Punk/Cena MITB, Angle/Austin Summerslam, Mankind/HBK Mind Games and Cena/HBK Wrestlemania 23 really high as well. Then there'd be a ton of matches which could replace one another to fill out the rest of a top 10 and top 20.

Edit: Oh dear lord at these new usertitles, I'm feckin Petey Williams. Gonna have to start eclipsing Pyro in terms of posts per day to rid myself of such shame.

**Clique** · 10-03-2012, 05:55 PM

Angle/Benoit probably would be pretty high on my list. I should re-watch that sometime soon.

But your name's not Eddie Guerrero, or Jerry Lawler, or Dick Murdoch, or Terry Funk, or Yoshiaki Fujiwara, or Genichiro TENRYU (capitalised for added awesomeness), or Toshiaki Kawada, or Ric Flair, or Finlay, or El Satanico. I could go on

Also whilst I have you in conversation, what's the exact rules per se with the classic section? Would I be permitted to make a World of Sport (British Wrestling from the 70s-late 80s) Discussion thread since it is classic wrestling, or would it be unwise and is the section more geared towards classic US territories rather than all forms of wrestling? I say this knowing full well I'll probably fail like Craig trying to go sober with keeping the thread updated with regular match reviews depending on how job hunting goes, but would rather ask here instead of a PM.
