Which wrestler, who's never been in a ladder match, would you like to see in one (let's be realistic, no joke answers like Andre). I'm surprised Randy Savage was never in one, seeing him hit the flying elbow from a ladder would have been incredible.

It's very possible either of these men had one at some point in their careers, but the first thing I thought of was Sting and Muta in the early 90's.

Tito Santana and Rick Martel. Against each other would be awesome, or either one against another great worker.

Did Ultimo Dragon ever take part in a ladder match? That'd have potentially been pretty fantastic.

Imagine the ladder match Bret and Owen could have had against each other.
Tag team wise: The Hart Foundation VS The British Bulldogs

Kanyon and Mike Awesome had a hard hitting match at Slamborree 2000. I think a feud involving a ladder match have been excellent.

Weirdly, I'd have loved to see Powers of Pain or Faces of Fear in one.
I guess I just assume Barbarian would be unhinged in a fun way in a ladder match.

A healthy and motivated Scott Hall and a just-made-top-guy DDP in WCW would’ve been cool. Maybe for the US Title or something.

Trying to picture an early 90s WWF mid-card ladder match (IC title level approximately). 6 Person Money in the Bank style.
Bret Hart
Mr. Perfect
Big Boss Man
Macho King as the Big Star of the match
two others not sure who though.

Odd choice WCW one:
Tag one with Glacier and Ernest Miller vs. Mortis and Wrath during the whole "Blood Runs Cold" story.
Goofy gimmicks aside, Glacier was decent enough, Miller improved over time, Mortis was Kanyon and who betta than Kanyon, and Wrath would be the physical specimen that would throw Glacier and Miller into the ladders and such for spectacle sake.

Put me down for Savage, also. Even if he didn’t take any crazy bumps, I know he could have told a fantastic story in a ladder match.

Rey Misterio Jr. and Psicosis didn't need gimmicks to have awesome matches, but I bet they could've had a very fun ladder match.
Although something else that would've been cool would've been a Lucha Underground style 7 way ladder match with, let's say... Psic, Juvi, Kidman, Chavo Jr., Silver King, El Dandy and Damian. Yes I'm including Damian because he'd be willing to take the highlight reel bumps. Though really take WCW's cruiserweight division and any 7 people in it and you'd have an amazeballs ladder match.
Just don't put Super Calo in it, because you know he'd mess something up and hurt himself, someone else, or both.

Also, imagine a ladder match with The Rockers. Or, a Michaels VS Jannetty ladder match.

Jake the Snake Roberts, with using Damien as an extension of his arm to reach the belt.

I bet he would have done some wildly innovative shit for the time. Definitely, as this was the time when the TLC matches were starting to become a thing. Kanyon would have wanted to show he could take it to a level as well. |

Some of those 80s/early 90s Intercontinental Title feuds would’ve been tons of fun as Ladder Matches:
Tito Santana Vs Don Muraco
Tito Santana Vs Greg Valentine
Tito Santana Vs Randy Savage
Randy Savage Vs Ricky Steamboat
Ultimate Warrior vs Rick Rude
Mr Perfect Vs Kerry Von Erich
Mr Perfect Vs Big Bossman
Tons of fun.
