I've not seen many Candido matches, the only one that sticks out in my mind is vs. Sabu at (I think) November to remember '99, any other recommendations?

His tag team matches with Storm are a good place to start.

I loved those tag matches, because Chris kept stealing the spotlight from "dull Lance". Doing his Candido strut to Back in Black while waving Lance away. Classic fun.
Could also take a look for his ECW "return" match against Mikey Whipwreck at N2R 1996. Mikey really gets some air and hits hard on that top-rope powerbomb. (Yeah, the ref botched a count a couple of times and the fans really got down on him.)
I have a "$1,000 ladder match" on tape where he wrestled Tracey Smothers sometime in March of 1994. (If you have the Chris Jericho DVD and watched the Thrillseekers' SMW match against the Infernos and wonder what that was hanging above the ring - until Lance knocked it down with a dropkick - that's the "check" they fought over.)
I loved Chris Candido's interviews. I miss that man. Childish, but very entertaining.

I enjoyed his work in TNA and I thought he was underrated. RIP Candido.

I liked his Heatwave 98 match vs. Lance Storm.

I really enjoyed his match at SummerSlam 1995 against Barry Horowitz. A lot of people criticise that angle and that match but I thought it was great.
