Sean Mooney: So what would you like to see? Do you want Hulk Hogan vs Ravishing Rick Rude? Demolition take on The Hart Foundation? Or maybe Andre The Giant vs Hacksaw Jim Duggan.
Fan: My dream match is Koko B. Ware vs The Brooklyn Brawler

I feel like I would’ve been the weird kid who would definitely request Koko B.Ware vs. Brooklyn Brawler.

Hated this as a kid. It would always be some nonsense like that. I'd be thinking "Hogan and Warrior vs Andre and Savage in a Steel Cage!!" and then the winner would be Mr Perfect vs. Rugged Ronnie Garvin
I remember on Mega Matches '91, the Fan Favorite Match was Earthquake vs Tito Santana. Does this kid hate Tito!? What is he doing!?!

Which fans select the matches home video had the worst lineup? Here is the back of the box of one that has the Koko B. Ware vs. Brooklyn Brawler match mentioned in the OP: I’m not saying it’s the worst one, but even the cover is just an abdominal stretch:

I would have wanted Junk Yard Dog vs Ricky Steamboat because those were my two favorites as a kid.
Yeah…it would have been shit but at least it would have been unique

Ware vs. Brooklyn Brawler match mentioned in the OP: I’m not saying it’s the worst one, but even the cover is just an abdominal stretch: Hart Foundation against Twin Towers is a cool and interesting match I could see myself wanting to see when I was a kid as Bret and Boss Man were both two of my favorites. Oddly they never really interacted much and that match is probably the only time they were in a ring together on camera. I know Bret and Akeem fought once on a MSG House Show with Akeem actually going over clean. Other then that all the other "Fan Favorite" matches seemed to be just two midcard guys going against each other and as a result it was clearly bogus. Esecially with stuff like Koko against Brawler. They hardly ever were matches with two popular guys who didn't interact much which is the type of matches you would see most fans writing in to want to see.

I don't know if it was the match from this tape or another forgotten match between the two teams, but a Hart Foundation-Twin Towers match did show up on one of WWE's Bret Hart DVD releases. I believe Bret said that at one point Akeem screwed up a sit down splash and actually injured Bret causing some nerve damage.

I believe Bret said that at one point Akeem screwed up a sit down splash and actually injured Bret causing some nerve damage. It's the same match. That MSG match with Akeem which took place several months later had that same spot as the finish. Bret goes for a sunset flip but Akeem kicks his legs out and sits on him. I'm surprised Bret would agree to doing that spot again when he got hurt doing it the last time. I guess maybe he's misremembering but I do definitely remember him looking to be hurt in the Hart Foundation-Twin Towers match as I remember afterwards Boss Man goes to something to him and Bret must have communicated that he was hurt because then Boss Man then stopped and started taunting the fans to buy Bret some time. It did seem like he finished the match ok.

This cover could also be for an all male version of Ultimate Surrender.* *If you do not know what that is, do not attempt to find out at work...

The matches were all decent, but nothing really stood out, but I found myself watching it quite a lot.

Andre the "Giant"
Are they saying he isn't really a giant, but a "giant"?

Box says "Fan Favorites" and VHS says "Fans Favorites" like they realized at the last minute they only surveyed one fan, and that fan was Jamison.
