|  #1 Posted on 5.11.06 2133.55 | Instant Rating: 5.46 | I just finished watching the Shawn Vs. STSA match from WMXIV (Tyson appearance, great match btw,) and got to thinking. What is your favorite match (no explanation...the match should explain itself)?
Mine would have to be Wrestlemania II. Bundy Vs. Hogan cage match.

McEnroe-Connors matches were always intense - especially at the US Open
I loved the McEnroe-Borg matches too - US Open & Wimbledon
but my favorite match is the kind with the white tip that you can light on just about anything........
(Magnun TA vs Tully Blanchard "I Quit" Match and the original "War Games")

A good waterproof match is near impossible to find. I downright refuse to light my cigars with lighters.
Wrestling-wise, my favorite match...well, any of Waylon Mercy's matches on SUPERSTARS would really count: i loved that character.

I think these two are my favorite match:
Ric Flair vs. Terry Funk (I Quit Match) from Clash Of The Champions IX. I recorded that match when it aired live, and must have watched it 20 times.

Also, Johnson/Atlas beating the Samoans, Goldberg/Raven, and Benoit/Snuka against....someone....on Nitro, where they both came off the corners of the steel cage.

| #15 Posted on 7.11.06 1259.50 | Instant Rating: 3.35 | Ivan Putski and Andre the Giant in tag action against some jobbers. It was my first live event and I was a HUGE Polish Power fan. It was at MSG and we had seats on the floor. Putski and Andre won and Ivan sat on one of Andre's shoulders as they walked out and they past right by me. I was on such awe of being that close to Putski and also in awe of Andre's size that I completely forgot to slap hands with them as the walked by. I could not tell you who was on the card, but I will always remember that as my favorite match.

Their 9/1/1990 might even be a better match, but this is my favorite. Jumbo is pissed and Misawa wants to beat the legend. A classic.
