Enigma 0 Report post Posted September 1, 2005 The Steiner Brothers vs. Doom WCW Clash of the Champions February 6th, 1990 The Steiner Brothers and Doom had one of the most heated rivalries of 1990 and this match was further proof of that. The Steiners put their WCW Tag Team Championship on the line, but if Doom lost, they would have to unmask and reveal their real identities. Would Doom become new WCW Tag Team Champions or would the world finally find out who lurked underneath their masks? Brian Pillman vs. Eddie Guerrero WCW Clash of the Champions January 23nd, 1996 Before Eddie Guerrero found his Latino Heat in WWE, he was clashing with Cruiserweights in WCW like the late Brian Pillman. These two could take to the air like no others and they put their impressive aerial arsenals on display in this one. Would Eddie crash and burn or would he fly high and pick up a win against Flyin' Brian? The Outsiders vs. Ric Flair & Chris Benoit WCW Monday Nitro July 21st, 1997 The nWo was always at odds with the Four Horsemen when in WCW. On this particular edition of Nitro, it was Ric Flair and Chris Benoit who teamed up to try and take down the Outsiders. Could Flair and Benoit cut their much larger opponents down to size and make them submit to the Crossface or the Figure Four Leglock? Or would Hall and Nash find a way to come up with yet another win for the nWo? Andre The Giant vs. Gorilla Monsoon August 16th, 1977 At WrestleMania 2, "Rowdy" Roddy Piper faced Mr. T in a well-known Boxing Match. But several years prior to the event, WWE Hall of Famers the late Andre the Giant and the late Gorilla Monsoon laced up the gloves for a boxing match of their own. Andre the Giant rarely lost in a wrestling match, but would he also be able to dominate a boxing match? Goldberg vs. Sid Vicious WCW Halloween Havoc 1999 October 24th, 1999 This one is not for the faint of heart. Goldberg and Sid had been embroiled in a heated rivalry over the United States Championship and it all came to a head at Halloween Havoc. Despite receiving a beating before the match at the hands of the Outsiders, Goldberg was able to go on the offensive and bust Sid wide open. Sid was bleeding profusely and before long was wearing the proverbial crimson mask. The bleeding was so bad that the referee had to stop the match despite Sid never giving up. Super Calo vs. Rey Mysterio, Jr. WCW Fall Brawl 1996 September 15th, 1996 Rey Mysterio had countless classic Cruiserweight clashes in WCW and this one against Super Calo is no exception. Super Calo was able to dominate Mysterio, who was the Cruiserweight Champion, for the majority of the match. But would Rey be able to come back and keep the gold around his waist? The nWo vs. Ric Flair, Sting, Arn Anderson, & Lex Luger -- War Games WCW Fall Brawl 1996 September 15th, 1996 War Games was one of the most brutal matches in WCW. Two rings, side by side, were enclosed by a steel cage. The steel cage had a roof, so once you were in the cage, there was no escape. Two wrestlers started the match and after a predetermined amount of time, another would enter. A coin toss was held before each match to determine which team would send in another team member first. This match was reserved to settle only the most bitter rivalries. This one featured Hulk Hogan, Scott Hall, Kevin Nash and Sting vs. Ric Flair, Arn Anderson, Lex Luger and Sting. Both teams claimed to have Sting on their side, but only one was telling the truth. Where did the Stinger's allegiance lie? Paisley vs. Tammy Lynn Sytch WCW Monday Nitro April 26th, 2000 This match featured two of the hottest women in WCW at the time - Paisley and Tammy Lynn Sytch. But that didn't stop The Artist Formally Known as Prince Iaukea and the late Chris Candido from getting involved. Would The Artist be able to help Paisley get the win, or could Candido guide Sytch to a victory? The Undertaker vs. Damien Demento WWE Monday Night RAW January 11th, 1993 This was the first ever main event from the first ever RAW. Undertaker had his work cut out for him, taking on the unorthodox Damien Damento. Could the Deadman cap off the first ever RAW with his trademark Tombstone? Arn Anderson's Retirement Speech WCW Monday Nitro September 23rd, 1997 Double A will always be considered as one of the best technical wrestlers in sports-entertainment history. He was dubbed The Enforcer of the Four Horsemen. He was a World Tag Team Champion, WCW Tag Team Champion and Television Champion. He always did whatever it took to make sure the Four Horsemen were on top of the wrestling world. But in 1997 Arn Anderson was forced into retirement due to a serious neck injury. You won't want to miss his moving farewell speech. Hulk Hogan & Roddy Piper vs. Paul Orndorff & Harley Race November 24th, 1986 Hulk Hogan and "Rowdy" Roddy Piper didn't always see eye to eye. In fact they were on opposing sides at the first ever WrestleMania. But they decided to join forces to take on WWE Hall of Famers Harley Race and Mr. Wonderful Paul Orndorff in a tag team classic at Madison Square Garden. Which Hall of fame duo came out on top though? Shawn Michaels vs. Diesel WWE In Your House -- "Good Friends, Better Enemies" April 28th, 1996 Shawn Michaels and Diesel were the best of friends at one time. Diesel came into WWE as HBK's bodyguard, but Diesel was ready to go out on his own and he was hungry for Michaels' new WWE Championship. This one was a No Holds Barred Match. Diesel used his size advantage in this one to lay a hellacious beating on the Showstopper, but HBK is known for taking a lot of punishment. Could he endure Diesel's wrath? Shawn Michaels vs. Kurt Angle WWE WrestleMania 21 April 3rd, 2005 This one was an instant classic. Shawn Michaels and Kurt Angle are two of the best in-ring performers in WWE history and they decided to steal the show at WrestleMania 21. On the grandest stage of them all, Angle hooked in the Ankle Lock multiple times, but would it be enough to make HBK tap out? You won't want to miss this five-star match. The Road Warriors vs. The Midnight Express WCW Starrcade 1986 November 28th, 1986 There have been several notable Scaffold Matches over the years, but this one ranks right up there. This took place at WCW's biggest event of the year - Starrcade. Once both teams made it to the top of the scaffolding, they went at it tooth and nail. The Midnight Express used powder to try to blind the Road Warriors, but would it be enough to save them from the big fall off the scaffolding? The Return of The 4 Horsemen WCW Monday Nitro September 14th, 1998 This will go down as one of the more emotional moments and nights in Nitro history. Arn Anderson introduced that the Four Horsemen were back and would be better than ever. After announcing Steve "Mongo" McMichael, Chris Benoit and Dean Malenko, it was time to announce the fourth horsemen. Without any further ado, Double A announced Ric Flair as the crowd went ballistic. Flair is known for his emotional speeches, but this one will go down as one of the most emotional of all time. Bret Hart vs. Diesel WWE In Your House February 18th, 1996 The Excellence of Execution had his work cut out for him in this one. The much larger Diesel was an imposing force and it seemed like no one would be able to take him down. But no one is better at taking down bigger foes than Bret Hart. He knows how to pick apart an opponent piece by piece. But would he be able to do that against the mighty Diesel? Waylon Mercy vs. Jeff Hardy WWE Monday Night RAW July 3rd, 1995 Waylon Mercy was one of the most bizarre characters in WWE history. Also known as Dan Spivey at one time, Mercy's time in WWE was relatively short-lived. But he did have a match with a very young and inexperienced Jeff Hardy. You won't want to miss this rare match up. Reggie White vs. Steve McMichael WCW Slamboree 1997 May 18th, 1997 These two mammoth men used to be on opposite sides of the gridiron, but now they were on opposite sides of the squared circle. Both have been recognized as two of the best defensive players in NFL history, but they wanted to see who was the best in the ring. Mongo had the Four Horsemen on his side, but would they factor into the outcome? Samoan Swat Team vs. Michael P.S. Hayes & Steve Cox AWA Superclash 1988 December 13th, 1988 Michael Hayes is best known for being on the Fabulous Freebirds, but he teamed up with Steve Cox while in the AWA to take on the Samoan Swat Team as well. Hayes' former partner Buddy Rose was now managing the Samoan Swat Team, and the SST's only loss came at the hands of Hayes and Cox so this one had been brewing for a while. Would the SST be able to get revenge for their only loss? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
