Otherwise they're my favorite matches. And I love the older lumberjack matches, you know, the ones where the lumberjacks actually did shit. | |

Rep Power: 85 ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | I voted for the TLC matches because I have never seen one that was a dissapointment.. Hell in a Cell was really cool but lately they've sucked with people like Nash involved.. I love ladder matches too but they don't have many anymore.. I hate Last Man Standing..too much standing around.. "I Quit" is basically a street fight..it's cool sometimes like The Rock-Mankind at the Rumble in '99 or even JBL-Cena last month. I love the Royal Rumble every year...It's prolly my favorite PPV, but there have been some Rumbles that were dissapointing and I hate it when it's a year where you basically know who is gonna win it.. | |

Rep Power: 46 ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | Just to keep the thread going, i'll give my favorite example of each option... Ironman match: HBK vs. Bret Hart, WM 12. The original, and still the best. I think the fact that there were no falls until sudden death OT just made it that much better, because it made both guys seem relentless, and made the title seem really really important Hell in a Cell: Undertaker vs. Mankind, KOTR 1998. Sure, this wasnt the prettiest match, but it had the single biggest "Holy Shit" moment in the history of WWE. Ladder match: This is tough, because there's been so many that I loved. I guess if I have to pick one, it would be HBK vs. Razor Ramon, WM10. Just because it was something nobody had ever seen before Cage match: There's been sooooooooomany cage matches in the history of WWE, it's hard to narrow it down. I'll go with Mankind vs. HHH, Summerslam 1997 (or was it 1996, i cant remember). It's an awesome sight seeing Foley halfway down the cage, take his mask off, climb back up, and drop the elbow a la Jimmy Snuka. Just awesome I quit match: Rock vs. Mankind, Royal Rumble 1999. Two words for you: 12 chairshots Last man standing: My least favorite of the gimmick matches. I suppose it would have to be, once again, Rock vs. Mankind, when they knocked each other out with simultaneous chairshots and both stayed down for the 10 Royal Rumble/battle royal: Tie: Royal Rumble 2002 and Royal Rumble 2005. The year HHH won, it was simply booked perfectly. and this year's was really good, and had great foreshadowing with Cena and Batista as the final two. The roar of the crowd when it came down to those two really let me know that the crowd was ready to get behind them Table match: Hardy Boyz vs. Dudley Boyz, Royal Rumble 2000. Just an awesome match, and the sight of Jeff Hardy doing the swanton off the MSG entranceway is burned into my wrestling memory TLC: Summerslam 2000. The original and still the best. they've all been great, but this one was a jaw-dropper. Just a phenomenal match Buried alive match: I dont actually remember many of these, so I guess I'll go with Vince McMahon vs. Undertaker, Survivor Series 2003, because it ld to the return of the Dead Man Elimination chamber: HHH vs. HBK vs. Booker T vs. RVD vs. Kane vs. Y2J, Survivor Series 2002. Besides being the original, I also saw this one in person with my 12 year old brother (who was only 9 at the time). I remember him jumping into my arms when HBK won, and me and him going crazy together. So this one has sentimental value | |

Rep Power: 112 ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | I'll have a go at that too D, just to help you out there!! I'm not too good at remembering the exact PPV though. Ironman match: Triple H vs The Rock. Going in so many people thought these two wouldn't have the know how to go the full hour but they were trememdous, culminated in the return after a pretty long absence of Undertaker as the Bad Ass, usually I'm against that sort of crap at the end, but I'll let it slide for the returning 'Taker. Hell in a Cell: HBK vs Taker. Watched it again not so long back, just absolutely awesome. Shawn is a fantastic perfomer now so lord knows what he was then because he seemed even better. His bump taking made the dead guy look out of this world. Again a bit of a screw job at the end but it did give us the introduction of Kane at a time that he was interesting. Ladder match: This is tough, because there's been so many that I loved. I guess if I have to pick one, it would be HBK vs. Razor Ramon, WM10. Just because it was something nobody had ever seen before Cage match: I think this was on Smackdown at the time of the invasion, it's kinda a match that's been lost in the mix of great matches between Kurt Angle and Benoit. It's on the great cage matches DVD and, as well as the usual great stuff between these two, you also finished it up with Angle doing a moonsault off the top of the cage....(I think Heyman said he went for everything, and got nothing!!!) and Benoit doing his diving headbutt from the top of the cage too. It's no wonder both guys are physically challenged thesedays when they were giving this stuff away for free on TV then. I quit match: Gotta go with D here. Rock vs. Mankind, Royal Rumble 1999. Just makes me cringe even now seeing all those vicious chairshots. Last man standing: Around 2000 in the Summer Jericho and Hunter had a cracking Last Man Standing match on a pretty good PPV (I think it was the one that had Rock-Benoit for the title). Just remember it as being very good but again, like D, their not my fave matches. Royal Rumble/battle royal: 2002 when Hunter won. Not because of Hunter at all, but mainly because of a very good roster and a fantastic surprise with Mr Perfect coming out and smacking the gum out of his mouth. Even better when he was in it for ages and got down to the last 3 or 4. I actually thought for a minute he might win it which is kinda ridiculous really. Shame they never did anything between him and Angle at the time because their tie ups with each other showed a lot of promise. They could have had a cracking feud. Table match: Hardy Boyz vs. Dudley Boyz, Royal Rumble 2000. Again agreeing with D. That match, indeed that whole PPV, was fantastic. One of my favourites. TLC: Wrestlemania 17. Obviously because I was there!!! But also because not only did it include the original guys but also Rhyno & Spike got involved (oh and Crackwhore too!!). Best PPV ever and this was an awesome match. Favourite spot was Edge spearing Jeff from the top of a ladder whilst he swung on the belt ropes. Buried alive match: I can't remember one I liked!!! Elimination chamber: The last one. Told a good story, played a big part in Batista becoming what he became (at least till he got the title!!) as well. | |
