WrestleMania Top 10 Matches Special Announced

[ChrisMWaters 0]

Was just watching Terminator on Spike TV...they announced that the special would air Tuesday, March 9th...and would be hosted by Ric Flair himself.

 

Just wanted to relay this to you guys. Me...I'll be at Smackdown tapings at the time.

[Guest Choken One]

Interesting Pick for HOST.

 

better then coach at least.

 

Figured Mean Gene would be the host actually...since he was THERE for the first one.

[Lil' Bitch 0]

I'll be sure to cap the show and have fun at the SD show, Chris, bring your signs!.

[Guest Frank_Nabbit]

Hogan vs Andre will be on there, What other matches are politically friendly enough and historical enough to make the show?

[Guest Choken One]

Rock/Hogan...

Flair/Savage...

Austin/Hart

Steamboat/Savage

TLC 2

hOGAN/Andre

Rock/Austin x7

Owen/Bret

 

are the automatics...The other two will be wild card matches...

[Karc 0]

Shawn vs. Razor ladder match should be there, too.

[SuperJerk 0]

Rock/Hogan...

Flair/Savage...

Austin/Hart

Steamboat/Savage

TLC 2

hOGAN/Andre

Rock/Austin x7

Owen/Bret

 

are the automatics...The other two will be wild card matches...

They'll probably be political choices, so I bet half of those won't even be MENTIONED on the show.

 

Has Triple H had any good WM matches?

Has Triple H had any good WM matches?

His match with Taker wasn't that bad.

[RavishingRickRudo 0]

Ric Flair was in 2 wrestlemanias, that were 10 years apart. Shawn Michaels would be a better choice. Of course, I'd rather listen to Flair than HBK, so... excuse this.

 

Rock/Hogan...

Flair/Savage...

Austin/Hart

they show Owen/Bret a BILLION times over...

 

Shawn/Razor will make it obviously...

 

take out TLC and slide the wmx ladder match instead...

 

Triple H going over Rock, Foley and TBS will get a spot...

those were good?

 

Okay, I'll admit, they weren't bad, but in the case of Rock and Jericho, they weren't the best matches he's had with them.

[Guest Choken One]

The owen match was ***1/2 and Jericho match is underated since people were so turned off as I had it at ***1/4.

 

I thought the Taker match was the most EXCITING match of his WM career however dispite only hitting ***.

I figure that the HBK/Austin match with Mike Tyson as the ref will be on WWE's list.

[EdwardKnoxII 0]

Has Triple H had any good WM matches?

 

against the Ultimate Warrior.

 

(Sorry, somebody had post it)

And you know that match will never see the light of day in the WWE again if someone has his way.

I made a custom tape for the Top 10 WRESTLEMANIA Matches to put on my tape trading site before Wrestlemania last year. Here it is:

 

Top Ten Wrestlemania Matches (6hrs) (VG)

* 10) HARDY BOYS vs DUDLEY BOYZ vs EDGE & CHRISTIAN (WMX7) (15:41)

* 09) BRET "HITMAN" HART vs ROWDY RODDY PIPER (WMVIII) (13:50)

* 08) HULK HOGAN vs ANDRE THE GIANT (WMIII) (12:01)

* 07) STONE COLD STEVE AUSTIN vs THE ROCK (WMX7) (28:06)

* 06) BRET "HITMAN" HART vs OWEN HART (WMX) (20:21)

* 05) THE ULTIMATE WARRIOR vs HULK HOGAN (WMVI) (22:51)

* 04) BRET "HITMAN" HART vs STONE COLD STEVE AUSTIN (WM13) (22:05)

* 03) BRET "HITMAN" HART vs SHAWN MICHAELS (WMXII) (62:07)

* 02) RICKY STEAMBOAT vs RANDY SAVAGE (WMIII) (14:35)

[Guest Frank_Nabbit]

8. King Kong Bundy, Lord Littlebrook & Little Tokyo vs. Hillbilly Jim, Little Beaver & Haiti Kid, III

 

 

Damnit I was drinking when I read that!

I have a feeling that when this list comes out it will piss me off. A lot of the list is going to be based on what is going to happen at Mania. If the the triple threat is made into a ladder match than the Michaels/Hall match will be put somewhere in the top 3 possibly #2. It should be on the list but not top 3, but it probably will and Flair will ramble on about how Michaels took the torch from him. If Bret Hart agrees to do WMXX than his matches with Owen and Austin will be high (his match with Austin should be #1). If he does not do Mania than the WWE will bury him like they always do, because according to the WWE it was Shawn Michaels who carried the WWE on his back in the mid 90s, not Bret Hart. I also expect there to be some odd choices. I can already see the WWE putting Angle/Lesnar on the list.

[Guest Wildbomb 4:20]

Austin/Hart

Hart/Piper

Savage/Warrior

Savage/Flair

Warrior/Hogan

Savage/Steamboat

Savage/Hogan

Hart/Hart

TLC 2

Benoit/Angle

 

1. Bret Hart vs. Steve Austin, XIII

2. Bret Hart vs. Owen Hart, X

3. Randy Savage vs. Ricky Steamboat, III

4. The Rock vs. Steve Austin, XVII

5. Razor Ramon vs. Shawn Michaels, X

6. Randy Savage vs. Ultimate Warrior, VII

7. Ric Flair vs. Randy Savage, VIII

8. Dudleys vs. Edge & Christian vs. Hardys, XVI

9. Randy Savage vs. Hulk Hogan, V

10. Chris Benoit vs. Kurt Angle, XVII

 

Seems like these two names always pop up in discussions of best WM matches.

[The Ghost of bps21 0]

Hogan/Andre

Steamboat/Savage

Savage/Hogan

Hogan/Warrior

HBK/Razor

Bret/Owen

Bret/HBK

Austin/Hart

Austin/Rock (17)

Hogan/Rock

 

 

Here's my guess in chronological order.

[geniusMoment 0]

The good news is they will probably release a dvd of this show, like with the austin special, and include full length versions of the 10 matches. At least thats what I would do.

[Guest JumpinJackFlash]

I read a RAW magazine from last year. It was the Westlemania edition, and it was hyping up Wrestlemania XIX. One of the articles was the Top 10 Wrestlemania Matches. I forgot the order(on some of them; for those I know, I'll put a number to the side), but I know which matches were on there:

 

10. Hogan/Warrior

9. Austin/Michaels

Rock/Hogan

Flair/Savage

Rock/Austin II

Michaels/Hart

4. Hogan/Andre

3. Steamboat/Savage

2. Michaels/Ramon

1. Austin/Hart

No, silly. He said "good" matches.

Yeah, those all sucked...except they didn't. All were solid ***-***1/2 matches. Just because I hate him doesn't mean he hasn't had good matches.

I would rather see the WrestleMania 2000 Ladder match between Dudley Boyz/Edge and Christian/Hardy Boyz, I personally think it is the better of the two gimmick matches they had. Didn't they do a Top Ten Matches for WrestleMania last year? Just take out whatever #10 was on that show and insert either Chris Jericho vs. Shawn Michaels or Brock Lesnar vs. Kurt Angle.
