Didn't like that cage a whole bunch when I watched it years ago; hoping I like it next time because I love GAB 07 between Jeff and Umaga. Overall, I like 2008 WWE a fair bit. I think there's more under-the-radar stuff than people seem to know. Michaels/Jericho had their feud, which can get really overrated, but is still good. I liked the Unforgiven and GAB ones a lot on last watch. I've still never watched the Michaels/Batista Stretcher from One Night Stand (which ties in the to Michaels/Flair/Jericho story), but that's supposedly a goodie. Edge has his feud with Taker, and it's..ok, but outside the HIAC (which I hardly like anyway), nothing is worth too much. The TLC especially is horrid. Cena/Orton from No Way out is something I liked, and others I talk to tend to worshp it, but I haven't seen it since it aired. Rey and Punk had a really good one at Armageddon. I like HHH's year a lot. Being a fan of him more than....I suspect anyone else here helps enjoy it, but it's a big step up from what he doing in DX before injury and again in 09. Doesn't have anything blow-away great, but I could see anyone liking something from him that year. There's a nifty set of stuff on TV. ECW has a lot of cool stuff with the midcard guys. Chavo/Punk had a really good series. I remember a Chavo/Bourne being talked up somewhere, probably Segunda Caida. I remember an Undertaker/Festus being talked up as well at WKO. A Finlay/Mike Knox belfast brawl took place that year IIRC and I remember digging it.There's a Flair/Michaels v Chavo/Edgeheads/Edge (was Edge in it?) cage match before WrestleMania which I've seen get praise. Unless my memory's fucking with me, Matt Hardy had a good year overall. I remember him feuding with Chuck Palumbo and Mark Hnery at points. Speaking of Chuck, Jamie Noble had this program with him, got a win over him, and started wearing a t-shirt which read "Noble 1, Pulambo 0" (With Palumbo misspelt and everything). I think Regal had a chunk of good stuff, 2008 was his King of the Ring push which he screwed over in favour of substances. He had a couple of matches with CM Punk that I liked. No Mercy's my favourite WWE show of 08 by a lot. Most prefer Mania, and I like Michaels/Flair, JBL/Fit (which doesn't get the love it deserves, btw) and Show/Money a lot, but the rest of the card doesn't do anything for me at all. No Mercy has the Hunter/Hardy I like a ton, the good Show/Taker, a surprisingly watchable Kane/Rey, a good Henry/Hardy, a fine-for-what-it-is divas match, and the Michaels/Jericho ladder match which I like (albeit not as much as most). Taker/Show LMS from Cyber Sunday would be my WWE MOTY. The whole program between is good (bar the crappy casket match from whenever); I def. prefer it to Edge/Taker. I've talked too much about the positive and not as much on the negative (Kane/Rey was a waste of Rey fuckin' Mysterio, Chavo/Horny was in 2008, wasn't it?), and made this post a random mess, but take it for what it's worth.

Watched this a while back and adored it. Thought it was about as good a match as I've seen from either guy, and I *might* call this the best non-All Japan singles of '95 I've seen. Thought it was at least as good as any Benoit/Finlay/Regal combo match as well.
