I always wanted to see Austin/HHH in a match, thankfully at No Way Out last year we got the classic "3 stages of hell" match. I thought Benoit/Jericho would be awesome and at the Rumble and other matches they brought the house down constantly. With all the 3 majors now one company, there are possibilities of some goodm dream matches in the fed. What are your possible must wanted matches?
Mine:
Booker T/HHH: The Book usually wrestles to the level of his opponent and I can see HHH and the Book giving us a great 25-30 minute roof raiser.
RVD/Christian: Call me crazy, but I think this match would be awesome. Hopefully this match hasn't already happened and I will look like an idiot. But give these two as long as RVD/Jeff Hardy had and it would be just as good.
Nash/Shane-O-Mac: Another crazy choice, but Shane would bump like crazy and Nash would play the tall, slow bully. I just want to see Shane sell the big boot.
I will try to think of more and add, I will avoid listing the Trish/Ivory whipped cream match
January 4th 1999 - The day WCW injected itself with 10 gallons of Liquid Anthrax...AKA...The day Hogan "Defeated" Nash to win the WCW title in front of 40,000.
Kanyon vs. Storm Kanyon vs. Hennig Kanyon vs. Benoit Kanyon vs. Raven Storm vs. Hennig Storm vs. Benoit Storm vs. Raven Hennig vs. Benoit Hennig vs. Raven Benoit vs. Raven
You say: Kanyon vs. Storm Kanyon vs. Hennig Kanyon vs. Benoit Kanyon vs. Raven Storm vs. Hennig Storm vs. Benoit Storm vs. Raven Hennig vs. Benoit Hennig vs. Raven Benoit vs. Raven
I say: If he means "right now", that pretty much pares that list down to Storm v. Hennig, as Raven's off TV and Benoit and Kanyon are injured..
RVD/Christian: Call me crazy, but I think this match would be awesome. Hopefully this match hasn't already happened and I will look like an idiot. But give these two as long as RVD/Jeff Hardy had and it would be just as good.
I meant anyone on the roster, active or not. Actually a Kanyon/RVD match would rule too.

I'm pretty sure these two have fought in the past, a short match on RAW or Smackdown, but a long feud between my two favorite wrestlers would rock the world.
Perfect vs Angle, Perfect vs Kanyon would be cool too.

I'd been waiting for that RVD/Stone Cold match that they teased during the invasion angle, but never really delivered on. But now that they've effectively killed all of RVD's pops, I guess it's back to the mid-card with him.
I want to see Triple H vs. Jericho. Seems to me like there is unfinished business there dating back to january 2000. There is the whole Jericho/Stephanie part of the fued that can be played up. There's the "this match never happened" angle to play off. Plus you can stretch the truth a bit and play up that it was the walls of jericho on the announce table that put triple h out of action for all those months. I really do hope they run this at WM.
If you mean "what match would I personally like to see purely for the wrestling" (like maybe a dream match at the Pillman show) I guess I'd have to say Yoshihiro (he does still have a first name damn it!) Tajiri vs. Shane/Gregory/Hurricane Helms in an "all moves are legal and can be used for more than 5 seconds" match. I want my Tarantula, Vertabreaker, and crazy aerial moves in there.
If you mean "what is the big money match in the WWF now" I say (and have said for about the last two years) Austin/HHH/Rock three way. It's the three biggest WWF stars (and they have been heads and tails the three biggest WWF stars for the last two years), and while they've fought each other in one-on-one matches of every way, shape and form for the last four years, they've never had a three-way (outside Billy and Chucky's imagination that is). There isn't any other conceivable match that comes close in terms of significance. It's just a matter of when the WWF chooses to blow it's wad on it. Here's hoping they do it while all three guys are still at (or near) their peak.

Farooq is the man so hit your knees and start praying!
Using the current roster(That I know of)INCLUDING injured:
AUSTIN v HOGAN: Each man was instrumental in the success of Pro Wrestling in their time. This one match is probably THE biggest dream matchup in current history. Now, finally, it will most likely happen soon.
JERICHO v FLAIR: I like the recent altercations prior to the Rumble. One legend, passing the torch, to the future. The similarities of the two point to one hell of a matchup, on the mic, as well as the ring(I'm sure Scott Keith has already given it ***** stars).
HBK v RVD: HBK is coming back, I tell ya, and he IS still on the roster, so there. Assuming Michaels can still go, This match would rock.
HHH v BOOKER T: I think the styles of these guys will compliment each other, making a great match anytime.
BENOIT v STORM: A technical fiesta, a grappling paradise, and those canadian fans current wet dream. expect to hear Bret Harts name injected 20 million times.
Booker T vs. Hardcore Holly in the main event of Wrestlemania X-8 for the WWF Championship, don't care who wins, don't care who comes in with the belt. Can't you just see those buyrates?
Well, it'd beat any WCW PPV in the last 2 years anyway.
And I think you're fat. So how do you like me now?
I want RVD and Benoit in a nice long match. I'd love to see Tajiri vs. Benoit at some point though I know it's not likely. I guess from a markish perspective it would be cool to see *once* Hogan vs. Rock and Hogan vs. Austin and Hogan vs. HHH. But just once. Personally I want Benoit, RVD, and Angle vs. Hall, Nash and Hogan, and I think you can guess who I would want to see go over in that one.
Nash and/or Hogan vs. either the Dudleys in a table match, the Hardys in a ladder match, or vs. Tajiri and RVD in a no-DQ match. It could be a kind of "what are you willing to do" match for Kevin and the Goblin. Let's see if Hogan's willing to take one of Tajiri's kicks to the head, then I'll believe that his coming back is a good thing.
It's not only good news for Edge's career, it's also good news for Wrestlemania 24. Pencil in that Edge/Triple H main event, since it's actually a bigtime match that's fresh.
