Your Greatest Match of All Time

I'll go with Vader vs Stan Hansen in Japan. The match was so intense and when Vader takes off his mask and you see his eye messed up, sh!t gets real.

We talking all aspects or like a match you personally was your favorite based on just a "wow" factor?

Flair vs Steamboat - ANYTIME they wrestled...just amazing the way they clicked.

Austin vs Hart - WM13 ... what a great story they told.

I heard Flair, on a podcast, say they wrestled each other 1500 times.

Those two did some PHENOMENAL work together!!

Several months ago, I came across a match between them in which both men were practically right out of wrestling school. In fact, I believe the ringside commentator mentioned they were both just teenagers.

Macho man Savage vs the Ultimate Warrior.
Career ending match -  '91 or '92?

Savage did a body slam from top rope on upright warrior.
Warrior caught him mid air, placed him on the ground and slapped him!

POWER!!! As a 15year old that was awesome!

That was also a great match. Warrior and Savage both told a wonderfull story here.

A small tidbit about Randy Savage for all you players incase you didn't know...everyone on here that knows me knows i'm a Randy Savage Mark born and bread...Savage always hinted the outcome of his match from the attire he wore. For example. When he beat Flair at WM8 he wore "gold tights" hinting he would win back the gold (title). When he faced Warrior at WM7 he wore all white hinting a face turn.

I didn't know that.

Hulk Hogan versus Andrea the Giant at the Pontiac Silverdome for the simple reason I was there to witness it.  Don't be jealous, bitches.

Lol...that's how I felt when I was 11 and Savage lost the title to Steamboat at WM3  ;D
Funny now we all talk about it as grown ups and laugh....some people need to grow up. Perfect example is the Undertaker's loss to Lesner...those idiot crowd reactions ...these dummies taking pro wrestling that seriously....Jesus....

See that didn't effect me as much because Macho Man was a bad guy. Judging in my kid brain the biggest ripped guy always winning I couldn't understand how a latern jawed slob like Slaughter could beat UW.

They had to make Warrior lose so Hogan could get the title back. As long as Hogan was WWE's main star, ratings were high in those days. Warrior was a big star but no where near as much drawing power as Hogan.
