Best WWF Syndication Matches

[Guest Boo_Bradley]

Be it from Shotgun Saturday Night/ Superstars/Wrestling Challenge... Whatever... What are some of the best matches you remember?

 

 

Bob Backlund/Bret Hart from 94 will be my pick... I'll add others as they come to me...

Diesel vs. Razor title change ... HBK vs. Candido ... Rockers vs. LOD

[Guest bob_barron]

The Kliq tag match from Action Zone.

 

Remember Sultan v. Goldust from the first SSN where Terri flashed her boobies?

 

I also remember a Taker v. HHH fight on that show where they battled around NYC

Diesel vs. Razor title change ... HBK vs. Candido ... Rockers vs. LOD

I actually found that episode of WWF Superstars with the Razor/Diesel match on tape a little while ago. I remember marking out so bad, I loved Diesel at the time and was hoping he was gonna win the IC Title. Thats why I ended up taping it, with hopes of him doing so.

 

Ah, memories..

Bret v. Owen on the first Action Zone

 

HBK/Diesel v. 1-2-3/Ramon on the second Action Zone

 

Bret/Bulldog v. Backlund/Owen from asnother Action Zone was pretty good.

 

::Keeps thinking:: I'll think later lol.

The Kliq tag match from Action Zone.

 

Remember Sultan v. Goldust from the first SSN where Terri flashed her boobies?

 

I also remember a Taker v. HHH fight on that show where they battled around NYC

That was when WWF had the smart idea to promote a show in bars and subways.

 

I like the Noble vs Kidman matches from Velocity.

[Guest Boo_Bradley]

Aren't Velocity and Action Zone CABLE shows?

Mmhmm

[Guest nWoScorpion]

Well, then Superstars & Challenge didn't have any great matches cept for the one or two above mentioned.

 

For some reason I thought you meant non Monday Night Raw matches.

Well, then Superstars & Challenge didn't have any great matches cept for the one or two above mentioned.

Sure they did. Those shows were on for 10 years apiece - they had more than 5 decent matches.

[Guest nWoScorpion]

I know i was being over-exagerative on that. a Classic match is Ricky Steamboat v. Honky Tonk Man, I think that aired on superstars.

[Guest Frankie Williams]

Tito Santana and Paul Orndorff vs Randy Savage and Cowboy Bob Orton from WWF Championship Wrestling back in 1985.

[Betty Houle 0]

*Steamboat vs. Orton (Wrestling Spotlight)

*Strikeforce vs. the Hart Foundation - title change (Superstars)

*Hogan/Orndorf vs. Studd/Bundy for the angle alone! (I forget which show)

*Demolition vs. Brainbusters - title change

*Randy Savage vs. Virgil - World Title defense and a really decent match! (Superstars)

[Guest Mr. Adam]

Bret Hart beating Bob Backlund on Superstars. Great match and Bob's snapping make it one to watch.

 

Best saturday afternoon ever.

[Guest MillenniumMan831]

I liked Perfect vs. Santana in the IC Tournament Finals on SuperStars. Even though Santana was nothing more than a JTTS at this point, as the match got going, I actually thought Tito might regain the IC Championship while Perfect would go after Warrior. Plus, I found it weird that they each got a bye in the finals.

[Guest The Amazing Rando]

I also remember a Taker v. HHH fight on that show where they battled around NYC

Was this the match that had the Tombstone onto the escalator? THAT WAS FUCKING SWEET! I didn't think it was Hunter but he rode down it completely knocked out...

[Guest HBKHater986]

The best syndicated match ever was Bret Hart vs Bob Backlund on Superstars in 94

[Guest JMTapes]

How about Michaels/Shinobi from '96? Not the best match, but pretty good.

[Guest Lemon Drop Kid]

I'm not nominating it for one of the best, but I really enjoyed Bam Bam Bigelow vs Sika for some reason.

[Guest Graham R Tripp]

Well this post certainly bought back alot of childhood memories for me, and not all of them good ones.

 

Best matches that I remember;

 

Bret Hart vs Sivi Avi

 

British Bulldogs vs Hart Foundation - when Danny Davis did the full turn

 

Ricky Steamboat vs Randy Savage - the bell angle

 

Hulk Hogan vs Terry Funk

[Guest Boo_Bradley]

I hate to admit it, but I always got excited for the weekly crap SStars match:

 

Barry Horowitz vs Gold Dust

Bigelow vs Duke Drose

Aldo Montoya vs Lawler

Koko B Ware vs Owen Hart

Rick Steiner vs Jacques Rougeau

Bushwakers vs IRS+ Ted Dibiase

 

 

When SStars went off of syndication and moved to Sunday Mornings in Oct. 96 (?) that was the only point in my life since I was 2 that I had no connection or outlet to watch wrestling. I was barren until 2 weeks before WM when my neighbor started taping RAW for me! Sultan squahes a jobber (Marks out!!!)

 

So basically I missed the formation of the NOD, The birth of Rocky Miavia, blue chipper, Flash Funk, Sid winning a World title, the return of Bret Hart, and the start of Stone Cold's mega push...
