Beast 0 Report post Posted December 2, 2003 Well, I'm in college in Philly now and the combination of that with the fact that the first PPV of 2004 will be here, I found myself thinking about what the best match was that ever took place in this great city. I looked up the PPV's and the ones that were here are: Halloween Havoc 1989 w/ Lex Luger vs. Brian Pillman Summerslam 1990 Halloween Havoc 1992 w/ Windham and Rhodes vs. Williams and Austin Slamboree 1994 w/ Nasty Boys vs. Cactus and Sullivan KOTR 1995 Mind Games 1996 w/ Michaels vs. Mankind Barely Legal 1997 w/ 6-Man Michinoku Pro Match Wrestlemania 1999 Unforgiven 2000 Out of all the matches on those PPVs, I would consider the Michaels/Mankind to be the best. However, I haven't seen many non-PPV matches, including TV, and Indys like ECW and RoH for instance. Is there any match that you would consider better than Michaels/Mankind.

Guest BobBacklundRules Report post Posted December 2, 2003 I don't consider the 6 man from Barely Legal to be a "best match", I love to watch it but there are too many blown spots, it's still a great match. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You're in a city with CZW, ROH, MLW, and two or three other indies that occasional run. Instead of spending $50 on a WWE ticket, go to two or three indy shows.

These arent the best,but they are awesome, Ki vs Spanky vs Williams vs Daniels,Danielson vs Styles, and Danielson vs Daniels vs Ki were all awesome. Also include Styles vs London if that took place in Philly. I am not sure Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
