Matt Hardy Because he understands the basics more than Van Dam.

Razor Ramon

Owen Hart by far.

Kurt Angle I think the "he's overrated!!" talk has been taken to far, to the point where people are talking as if he's a bad wrestler, which is ridiculous. He has a large number of good TV matches and more than enough very good-great PPV matches to get my vote. If this were based on NWA/WCW/Japan work as well as WWF, I'd vote Steamboat. But it isn't so I'm not.

Steve Austin

Yokozuna

Hulk Hogan

Undertaker I voted for him but I take issue with this statement: "The Undertaker has the best gimmick in company history " Better/more successful than Hulkamania? The People's Champion? The Toughest SOB in the WWF? Those were all gimmicks and far more successful.

Chris Benoit To put it bluntly - he had a bazillion good TV matches.

Christian

Demolition Ax

Edge

Arn Anderson The Rockers-Brainbusters series in '89 is one of my favorite tag team feuds ever.

Rey Misterio Jr Loss nailed it with his comments.

Rick Rude He had good matches with Ultimate Warrior for god's sake. As a heel character I find his act to be far, far, far more entertaining than HHH's boring, repetitive "dhurrr I'm the game, I'm the best, me want title" shtick. Rude's heel act was the kind of thing you just loved to boo because he was so outrageously cocky and great at it. HHH's heel act makes me groan and want to change the channel. HHH might've had more good matches...but did Rude get to work with Benoit/Austin/Angle/Jericho/Michaels/Rock in the WWF?

Marty Jannetty Marty, without hesitation. I absolutely love The Rockers. They'd be my pick for best WWF/E tag team ever

Apologies if this was posted before, I can't recall if I did. Chris Benoit - 1985: w/Rick Patterson vs. Mike Hammer/Butch Moffat - Stampede 11/22 1986: vs. Black Mephisto (Toshiaki Kawada) - Stampede 1/? 1987: w/Owen Hart vs. Zodiac/Jason the Terrible - Stampede 10/23 1988: vs. Johnny Smith - Stampede 5/27 1989: vs. Johnny Smith - Stampede 12/30/88 (aired in 1/89) 1990: vs. Jushin Liger - NJPW 11/1 1991: vs. Owen Hart - NJPW ?/? 1992: vs. Jushin Liger - NJPW 8/12 1993: vs. El Samurai - NJPW 6/15 1994: vs. Great Sasuke - NJPW 4/16 1995: vs. El Samurai - NJPW 7/7 1996: vs. Eddy Guerrero - NJPW 6/11 1997: vs. Shinjiro Ohtani - NJPW 11/2 1998: vs. Bret Hart - WCW Nitro 6/22 1999: vs. Bret Hart - WCW Nitro 10/4 2000: vs. William Regal - Pillman Memorial 5/25 2001: vs. Steve Austin - WWF Smackdown 5/31 2002: w/Kurt Angle vs. Edge/Rey Mysterio - WWE No Mercy 2003: vs. Kurt Angle - WWE Royal Rumble 2004: vs. Shawn Michaels - WWE Raw 5/3 2005: vs. Triple H - WWE Raw 3/14

Can't put 'em in order, because it changes often depending on how I'm feeling at the moment, but it's always these five: Steve Austin Chris Benoit Bret Hart Toshiaki Kawada Kenta Kobashi

"Rating: A DUD for the ages." Not that I disagree, but....what is the point of writing excessively long reviews of terrible matches? I mean, you could've watched a good match in the time it took to write all that.

Maybe I have a perverse sense of humor, but I actually want to see this. It would be bad...but hilariously bad!

I'll vote...if I don't forget.

WOW. I thought the match was great, but...seriously? That's some high praise there.

Benoit vs Sting from 9/20 Nitro is fantastic depsite the poor finish. The psychology is about hierarchy - Sting is above Benoit, so Benoit has to repeatedly regroup and rethink his strategy to beat Sting. The finishing stretch with Benoit coming close to knocking off Sting is outstanding but of course they have to ruin it with a run-in.

Austin vs Undertaker from Summerslam is very, very underrated. I don't know, it's as if people expect it to not be good so they dismiss it without thought. I've read some embarrassingly bad reviews of it. Anyway it has a damn fine story based around Undertaker, who has an answer for everything Austin throws at him, being Austin's toughest opponent yet. A remarkably smart match that I'd rate over any other WWF match from 1998. Austin/Undertaker vs New Age Outlaws from 7/27 Raw is short and simple but it's incredibly fun.
