Good picks.

[DMann2003 0]

I concur

[Guest TheZsaszHorsemen]

1. HHH/Benoit/HBK - WM XX

 

2. UT/The Rock/Kurt Angle - Vengeance 2002

 

3. DDP/Raven/Benoit

 

That's my top three.

[Guest The Last Free Voice]

Dragon Ki Daniels is my top one for sure

 

WMXX is next

 

The first Ki/Lynn/AJ one is next (non ladders)

 

In all honesty those are the only ones I can think off right now. But I do think the AJ/Ki/Lynn one deserves more props than it gets. One of the bright spots of early TNA.

I've seen none of the WCW matches Birdman listed, nor the ECW match, I'm sorry to say, so my knowledge is kinda limited. Having said that:

 

1) HHH vs Benoit vs Michaels - WMXX (without a doubt)

2) Benoit vs HHH vs Michaels - Backlash 2004

3) Low-Ki vs Daniels vs Danielson - ROH Era of Honor Begins

4) Edge/Christian vs Hardys vs Dudleys - TLCI SummerSlam 2000

5) Undertaker vs Rock vs Angle - WWE Vengeance 2002

6) Lynn vs Styles vs Low-Ki - NWA TNA (one of their firsts shows, can't place date)

 

I've edited my list with the Backlash rematch and the first TLC. TLCII also ranks highly with me, but I won't list it so I'm not too repetitive.

Has no one mentioned the TLC matches yet? Other than the last two, they were all triple threats, all fantastic.

 

The Awesome/Tanaka/Taz match was great, but its only really a triple threat in name. Taz was in it for like a minute.

hey man u need to find those WCW matches & ECW match cause they are off the chain, u wont be dissapointed. and yeah i shouldve probably mentioned AJ/Lynn/Ki cause they had 2 awesome triple-threat matches including the triple ladder match. also the Edge & Christian vs. Hardy Boyz vs. Dudley Boyz TLC match from Summerslam 2000 was really good.

Personally, I loved the Austin/Angle/RVD Heavyweight Title Match at No Mercy 2001.

[Guest Birdman37]

Personally, I loved the Austin/Angle/RVD Heavyweight Title Match at No Mercy 2001.

yeah the RVD, Stone Cold, & Angle match was pretty damn good but it wouldve been GREAT if RVD had somehow been able to get that title which the WWE STILL thinks he isnt good enough for. Send that nigga to NWA TNA and see if he dont win the World Title. That is some bullshit.

[SamoaRowe 0]

I think the Lesnar/Angle/Big Show main event of Vengeance 2003 is extremely underrated. I never thought I'd enjoy a Big Show match so much.

[UseTheSledgehammerUh 0]

Of course TNA would give RVD the World Title. He's a big-name star that's over. But being a big-name and over doesn't mean you deserve a World Title. That's why he isn't a WWE World Champ. He doesn't deserve it.

 

Anyway,

 

The TLC matches were all fantastic, agreed. Hold up well, too, and definately are the most well put together "foreign object type" matches, ever. Better than any singles ladder match, and just rock. They have to be included.

I loved TLC I from SummerSlam 2000.

 

But I've always hated that TLC II match from WrestleMania X7. They had the same spots that were in the first TLC match, and other ladder matches before it. Jeff swanton off the ladder....check. People falling off a ladder into a stack of tables outside....check. Edge spearing Jeff, who was hanging from the title belt in the air....check. With the exception of the Lita/Spike/Rhyno runins - and the botched Jeff tightrope walk across the ladders - the match felt like a complete rehash of the one from SummerSlam. I remember how disappointed I felt after the match ended, knowing that it was all things we had seen before.

 

TLC III really fixed that problem by creating a whole bunch of innovative spots - perhaps the addition of an extra team did it a lot of good. But TLC II relied MUCH TOO MUCH on stealing spots from all the other ladder matches, so it always falls really flat for me.

I really liked Y2J/Benoit/Angle from WM16.

[Australian Pride 0]

For mine:

 

1. Rock/Shamrock/Mankind (Breakdown 1998). First ever triple-threat cage match. Crowd was into this in a big way, and it really set up Rock as a headliner. The actual match was great as well.

2. Benoit/Michaels/HHH (WM20). Just a fantastic match, with a memorable finish.

3. Rock/HHH/Lesnar (Australian Global Warning Tour 2002) - this one i have listed because i was there live for it, it was a high class match and it capped off a great card of action.

I'm surprised nobody has mentioned the Shane Douglas/Sabu/Terry Funk triple threat from Crossing the Line, an ECW show in 1994. It's one of the shows that put ECW on the map.

[UseTheSledgehammerUh 0]

WM X7 is the best of the three, IMO. An easy ***** and blows away most of what has taken place after it.

No one's metioned it because it sucks.

 

That's why he isn't a WWE World Champ. He doesn't deserve it.

 

Because Bradshaw and Orton do?

[Guest ally mccoist]

Of course TNA would give RVD the World Title.  He's a big-name star that's over.  But being a big-name and over doesn't mean you deserve a World Title.  That's why he isn't a WWE World Champ.  He doesn't deserve it.

 

Thats the dumbest thing i've heard in a while. Two things:

 

-You don't have a clue why RVD hasn't been world champ.

 

-Nobody "deserves" to win the world title. Wrestling is a money making business.
