Favorite wrestling match of all time? -

Booker T and Chris Benoit had a best out of 7 matches that were really memorable.

iirc they had two sets, one in WCW and one in WWE in the Smackdown Six era.

It was a shit match but I was in 6th grade so whatever but my biggest markout moment was when Lex Lugar beat Hulk Hogan for the title (to lose it a week later at road wild lol)

my friends and I watched that shit together at our "nitro party" lol but holy shit we flipped the fuck out and were screaming and high fiving each other when luger had him in the torture rack.

In terms of storyline, this was a *huge* deal for WCW as, IIRC, it was the first major loss the NWO had suffered since they formed. Up until then, they were winning a one-sided war against WCW.

Brett hart Vs Bulldog at summerslam 1992
Not that its the greatest match ever or anything but I stayed up all night to see it and seeing Bulldog win the title was a really big deal at the time (I was 12).
Got so excited I puked.

I know it's weird, but the Bailey/Sasha Banks match from Brooklyn had what it took to make me LOVE that match. It had an amazing backstory (three of the four original NXT women wrestlers were moved to the main roster, leaving poor Bailey in the dust, and this was Bailey's time to grab the spotlight), an amazing heel performance from Banks (ripping off the hand cast and proceeding to smash the bejesus out of Bailey's hand had ME screaming), VERY good wrestling, and a very touching moment after the match, knowing that they're still going to leave, and we're going to be stuck with Bailey vs Eva Marie for the while...FML.

Bret/Owen at WM12.

I favor the Owen Hart tribute in WCW featuring Bret Hart and Benoit. Perfect pacing, beautiful transitions, genius technique, manly pathos.

Asuka can hold her own with Bayley no problem. Those two are going to have some awesome matches. Asuka made Dana Brooke look credible. Bayley and Sasha last night was amazing. The ending was a bit... unbelievable with the tap out at a few seconds, but I think their feud needed to end on a Sasha tap.
