You not a REAL wrestling fan unless you've seen..
This idea just popped into my head. What are some matches you think everyone who calls themselves a wrestling fan should have to see at least once?

Ric Flair vs. Ricky Steamboat (1989 Trilogy: Chi-Town Rumble, COTC Ragin' Cajun Showdown, Music City Showdown)

Terry Funk vs. Sabu (Born To Be Wired)

Undertaker vs. Foley (Hell In A Cell)

Those are the three that come to mind for me. What do you have?

Re: You not a REAL wrestling fan unless you've seen..
I haven't seen the Flair-Steamboat match you mentioned, i'll have to try and catch it.

I would say Hulk Hogan vs. Andre the Giant from WrestleMania 3. Although i'm sure there are plenty of young casuals who haven't seen it.

EDIT; I've thought of another; Rock vs. Hogan from WM 18.

Re: You not a REAL wrestling fan unless you've seen..
So what exactly is a "real" wrestling fan? Just curious on the definition of that.

You havent lived till you've recieved a blowjob, while taking a shit, while preforming oral sex on a woman. Yeah, beat that one land of the living!

I've seen all of that stuff but the Terry Funk vs. Sabu. I dont believe beating the shit out of another person with barbed wire is REAL wresting.

Re: You not a REAL wrestling fan unless you've seen..
If you're talking classic, maybe historical matches, then I'll throw out a few:

Savage vs Steamboat, WMIII
Savage vs Warrior, WMVII
Hogan vs Warrior, WMVI
Hart vs Perfect, KOTR93 & SS91

Yeah, I just find it a weird thought. Because I know there are many many passionate and hardcore fans of current pro wrestling out there who are far more "real" fans in that sense than I am, yet I know I've seen a lot more historical and diverse stuff thant they have.

Randy Savage vs Ricky Steamboat - WM III
The Undertaker vs Shawn Michaels - Hell in the Cell Badd Blood 1997
Samoe Joe vs Kenta Kobashi - ROH Joe vs Kobashi
Kenta Kobashi vs Mitsuharu Misawa - Jan 1997 All Japan
Kobashi-Kikuchi vs Furnas-Kroffat - May 1992 All Japan
Tiger Mask vs Dynamite Kid - New Japan all of them

This is sort of my feelings.

I know this is going to come off as me being up myself - as usual - but there will be those who consider themselves to be huge fans or bigger than myself and others, yet have not watched that big of variety.

I wouldn't say any matches in particular (though there are obviously some I would consider must-see to fans), but I think so much as the diversity of different styles, wrestlers and promotions is what seperates hardcore-casuals to what people would say are the "real" fans.


Also - this totally reminded me of the Tom/Joel "you ain't no real wrestling fan" lolfest.

Re: You not a REAL wrestling fan unless you've seen..
That's the FIRST thing I thought of too.

And I agree, to be a REAL fan you need to see some of the best of every world to really have a good understanding. I'd say a good history too would help. Whether it's lucha, puro, catch-as-catch-can, hardcore, etc. you should really try to get at least a little exposure to everything to really appreciate what you see. Plus it might open new doors of a style you really enjoy.
