Over the years some amazing matches seem to have been all but forgotten. My pick is Ultimate Warrior vs Ted DiBiase on SNME. Really good match, and Warrior not only pulls off a few tricks he's not known for, ie, coming of the top rope, some good reversals, and a lil mat wrestling, but he also sold really well for DiBiase and played the "face in peril" role well. Check it out on Youtube if given a chance. Really plays to my belief that Warrior is seriously under-rated as a worker.

Its no coincidence that his good matches were with Rude, Hogan, Savage, and DiBiase. I know that it really isn't forgotten because it comes up every time this thread does, but the Owen Hart-123 Kid Match from KOTR 1994 still blows my mind. They got more done in 5 minutes than most do over 30.

John Morrison vs. Evan Bourne, right before Morrison left WWECW.
Great back and forth match with a lot of near falls. Easily one of the best TV matches I've ever seen.

From WCW Thunder:
The Jersey Triad vs. The West Texas Rednecks.
I don't remember how good the actual wrestling of it was, but I like it for something that was done.
For all the time the Triad were the WCW Tag Champions, they were using the Freebird rule of any member of the team could defend the titles. Well, in this match, the Rednecks decide to use that trick against them...whenever the Triad switched members, so did the Rednecks...and they had one more person on their team to work with.

Virgil vs. Ted Dibiase for the Million Dollar Title at Summerslam 1991, it was one of the few times I enjoyed Piper on commentary, the emotion in Piper's voice was like legit and Dibiase playing mind games constantly beating Virgil to the point of no return, then all of a sudden Dibiase messes up banging Virgils head into an exposed turnbuckle and when Virgil wins the Garden explodes.
