Guest Austin3164life Posted July 13, 2003 Report Posted July 13, 2003 1)flair-steamboat clash 6 9)benoit-sasuke j cup 94 Winner: The Flair/Steamboat match below is their best encounter, so I think I'm going with Benoit/Sasuke. 17)bret-austin wm13 32)flair-steamboat wrestlewar89 Winner: God DAMN this is tough. This should've been in the finals. I'm going to go with Bret/Austin because it had more historical impact and significance. Both are amazing matches, but Bret/Austin (with the "I Quit" stipulation) is just a shade better.
Guest BAR Posted July 13, 2003 Report Posted July 13, 2003 1)flair-steamboat clash 6 32)flair-steamboat wrestlewar89 Wooooo! I'm looking for an '89 final. WW seems to be the more popular between most fans, but I know there's a lot of Clash fans here.

Guest WrestlingDeacon Posted July 14, 2003 Report Posted July 14, 2003 1)flair-steamboat clash 6 17)bret-austin wm13 Just so we don't get Flair and Steamboat versus themselves in the final. Both here are landmark matches.

Guest JHawk Posted July 14, 2003 Report Posted July 14, 2003 1)flair-steamboat clash 6 32)flair-steamboat wrestlewar89 Clash VI is my favorite match ever and I'll be pissed if WrestleWar beats it, but either way's cool.
Guest Askewniverse Posted July 14, 2003 Report Posted July 14, 2003 Flair vs. Steamboat- Clash VI Bret vs. Austin (just so to have two different match styles in the final).
Guest godthedog Posted July 14, 2003 Report Posted July 14, 2003 flair/steamboat, 2/3 falls bret/austin, WM 13 i think the two flair/steamboat matches are interchangeably great, and i don't really care which one wins, so i might as well give bret & austin a fighting chance.

Guest CanadianChris Posted July 14, 2003 Report Posted July 14, 2003 (edited) Duh... 1)flair-steamboat clash 6 32)flair-steamboat wrestlewar89 The reasons some pople are giving for not voting for the Wrestlewar match are pretty silly. These two ARE the two greatest matches of all time...they SHOULD go against each other in the final. Edited July 14, 2003 by CanadianChris
Guest Coffin Surfer Posted July 15, 2003 Report Posted July 15, 2003 The reasons some pople are giving for not voting for the Wrestlewar match are pretty silly. These two ARE the two greatest matches of all time...they SHOULD go against each other in the final. Uh no, Flair/Steamboat wasn't the best singles match of 89, it isn't the best NWA World Title match of all time, it isn't even the best match to happen on U.S. soil, and it certaintly is not the greatest match of all time(not even top 50 on my list). Sorry for the interruption, carry on with the voting.
Guest Coffin Surfer Posted July 15, 2003 Report Posted July 15, 2003 While I'm here, I guess I'll vote: Benoit/Sasuke JCup 94 vs. Flair/Steamboat 2/3 Falls. winner: Benoit/Sasuke. -Benoit and Sasuke managed to tell a rather complex story that not only did a great job of touching upon the stories of their previous matches in the JCUP but paid homage to DK/Cobra and DK/Tiger Mask. It's more than story telling to, as Benoit constructs an excellent match with loads of credible near falls and nice timing. Flair/Steamboat 2/3 falls is an excellent match. The first fall does a masterful job of building off the Chi-Town match, and the second fall was even better, picking up in intensity and drama. While the third fall is inferior thanks in large part to probably fatigue, repetiveness, and by the numbers stuff, it's still decent. However, this match can't touch the depth or complexity of Benoit/Saskue. Hart/Austin Wrestlemania 13 vs. Flair/Steamboat Wrestlewar 89 winner: Hart/Austin Wrestlemania 13 I haven't watched Hart/Austin in a very long time, but I do remember it being incredibly dramatic, very emotional, and featuring awesome storytelling. Still, I feel the Survior Series match is their superiror definitive match that is actually a bit more deeper than the Wrestlemania match if I recall. Flair/Steamboat Wrestlewar 89 is probably their best, and I have a hard time picking Hart/Austin's second best match over it. Still, Hart/Austin tells the deeper and considerably more dramatic in ring story, and truth be told is a little more advanced(and I'm not talking about moves, I'm talking about match construction and story telling) than Flair/Steamboat.

EL DANDY~! Posted July 18, 2003 Report Posted July 18, 2003 The 2/3 falls match is probably the best 2/3 falls match on US soil...bar none. And I agree with Coffin Surfer's sentiments, there are better NWA title matches when Jumbo was wrestling for the belt. Anyways, on with my sentiments 2/3 Falls match BARELY goes over Benoit/Sasuke And Austin/Bret goes over WrestleWar 89. I think the Wrestlewar 89 is overrated, to tell you all the truth. I love the match, but it's not really better than Clash VI, in my opinion. And also...a best match ever tournament that has Misawa/Kawada 6-3-94 go only as far as the Sweet 16 and LOSE...really hurts my feeling. No reason why that match shouldn't be here, and in my opinion...no reason why it shouldn't win the whole goddamn thing.

You mean 18 minutes.... hell naw. by that point, steamboat had flown over the top rope to the outside at least twice. how is it that everybody's seen benoit/sasuke and so many haven't seen misawa/kawada? i saw 6-3-94 WELL before i saw the j-cup match.
