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.

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

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.
I humbly bow to your superior geek-dom.

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.

It's a shame Hellwig didn't evolve his character. I think he may have tried doing that in WCW, but the depth he added didn't work.
Bischoff claims to have had some evolutionary ideas for the Warrior character. Some sounded cool, but none ever saw the light of day.
He had so much going for him with the look and the push he received. The fans wanted to cheer for him.
I don't think there's ever been someone with such a tremendous edge, but failed to deliver, as UW. With just a little humility and willingness to learn, he could have had the wrestling world by its Deca-atrophied balls.

Agreed. He was also too greedy. He wanted some outragous amount of money for a WCW Run and i'm sure they offered him around the million dollar mark and he should have been more than happy with that considering his track record.

I think any man who changes his legal name to "Warrior" isn't likely to be reasoned with.

I've alluded to that point several times on here - primarily from a ball-busting perspective.
In fact, I believe the reason he did that was to retain the legal rights/ownership of the Ultimate Warrior name. This was back when he and Vince were battling in court over the UW name & likeness.

And it worked because he sued Vince and WWE in 1996 for illegal use / copyright of his name and won.

Yep.
Not many people have successfully sued the old man.
Jesse Ventura got a nice settlement for royalties paid on commercial WWF VHS tapes. I don't know if it came out during, or not until after the court battle, but Hogan was paid royalties for that footage. Jesse figured fair is fair.

JV got over 800 grand in royalties.
