I figured this would be a fun question to ask given all the matwork fans on this board. If you were to create a matwork primer, what matches would you include? I'm not necessarily talking about the best grappling you've ever seen, more like textbook examples of fairly basic stuff executed at a high level. Off the top of my head, I'd say something like El Dandy/Black Warrior would be a good example.

Normally, I defer to Parv on this type of question. ;) I think I'm at the point now when it comes to talking about mat work that the first thing that pops in to my mind is Lucha. I'd had Casas versus Santo and Dandy against Azteca that were immediate picks.

In addition to the above, these are some of my favorites:

 

Blue Panther vs El Mariachi (Solar I) from AAA in 1994

Solar I & Super Astro vs Blue Panther & Sergio El Hermoso from WWA in 1987

Osamu Nishimura vs Bas Rutten from NJPW in 2002

Clive Myers vs Young David (Davey Boy Smith) from Joint Promotions in 1981
