Yeah, I had it too. But he said that match was from this year and I said it's from last year.

Five stars, no doubt about it.

Honestly couldn't argue with Undertaker vs HBK - Hell In a Cell to being WWE's greatest match. I'd happily accept that actually.

Everybody should just watch anything with Less Kellett and you will soon realize you are watching a 5* showcase.

I just watched Mitsuharu Misawa vs Jumbo Tsuruta from 1/9/90.

Holy shit. Maybe the best match I have ever seen. Better than Misawa vs Kawada from 94 and Misawa vs Kobashi from 97.

So annoyed with myself for not watching more puro sooner.

I haven't rated a match five stars before, probably because I haven't watched most of the old stuff.

If you want my ****3/4 list...

WWE
Cena v Punk - MITB
Dragon Gate
YAMATO v Mochizuki - Infinity 177
CIMA, Fujii & Doi v Saito, Horiguchi & Kid - Pro Wrestling Festival 2005
Doi, Kishiwada & Yoshino v Saito, Kid & Yokosuka v Takagi, Hulk & Kong - Infinity 65

Haha. That was one of the first puro matches I've seen too. Bloody epic.

not a big fan of misawa vs tsuruta, I couldn't really get into it. I like their trio match though.

I'm burning it to a DVD as we speak. I thought I seen it before too, but I just mixed it up with their 30 minute limit draw, which was decent but not the best match ever.

Like you said, it's supposedly the best match ever. That should be all the advice you need to go out and watch it. I haven't seen it yet, but if it's meant to be that good, go ahead and watch it.

Yes, it is excellent. Toward the mid way point of the match it gets really good.
