I feel like they released this list for the 1000th episode and we all remarked about how they hid Benoit as the Radicals

I've never seen this Flair/Perfect match. Infact I didn't know it was held in such high regard until now. Better check it out.

You know, I tried watching that John Cena/Shawn Michaels match, but I couldn't even make it through the whole thing, it seemed to drag on so much. I don't think I'll ever see the appeal to it. It seemed like 90% restholds to me. I've never seen so many chinlocks in a single match. I was more impressed by every other match that night, including those on Heat. Granted, they had to make up for the lack of Edge vs Orton (still annoyed about that), but geez. You'd think the "Showstopper" could come up with more interesting ways to pass the time, with how much WWE bigs him up as the greatest wrestler ever.

Cena gets six, Miz gets four, and Punk gets only two. New shoot?

HBK/Cena is one of my favorite matches ever.
They did everything right.

I'm pretty shocked the awesome Punk/Ryback TLC isn't on the list (unless I missed it somehow) and Miz/Lawler TLC is.
Seriously, I loved this past Raw's WWE title match that much.

No. 4 and No. 5 are my two personal favourites and I would have had them 1 & 2, in the same order though. Pretty good list though.

In an ideal world, HHH/Austin vs. Benoit/Jericho would be there somewhere but for rightfully obvious reasons, it's not. Besides that, very solid list. And the Benoit/Angle cage match with Austin on the outside.

I'm sure someone on here is doing the count on this, somebody other than me, but am interested to see who is named most on that list. Prepare to be shocked and amazed... {Spoiler} Shawn Michaels - 8 Triple H - 8Steve Austin - 7 The Rock - 7 John Cena - 6 Chris Jericho - 6 Mick Foley - 5 Christian - 4 Bret Hart - 4 The Miz - 4 The Undertaker - 4 Rob Van Dam - 4 Big Show - 3 British Bulldog - 3 Edge - 3 Scott Hall - 3 Jeff Hardy - 3 Owen Hart - 3 John Morrison - 3 Randy Orton - 3 Sean Waltman - 3 Shelton Benjamin - 2 CM Punk - 2 Ric Flair - 2 Hulk Hogan - 2 Kane - 2 Jerry "The King" Lawler - 2 Mr. Perfect - 2 Dolph Ziggler - 2 Kurt Angle - 1 Batista - 1 Chris Benoit - 1 Daniel Bryan - 1 Ted DiBiase Jr - 1 Doink - 1 Bubba Ray Dudley - 1 Spike Dudley - 1 Goldust - 1 Grandmaster Sexay - 1 Eddie Guerrero - 1 Marty Jannetty - 1 Mr. Kennedy - 1 Lita - 1 Dean Malenko - 1 MVP - 1 Rey Mysterio - 1 Cody Rhodes - 1 Rikishi - 1 Road Dogg - 1 Perry Saturn - 1 Scotty 2 Hotty - 1 Ken Shamrock - 1 Al Snow - 1 Trish Stratus - 1 Tyson Tomko - 1 Thanks for doing that, glad it got some people talking about the numbers. The first thing I looked for was Michaels/Shelton. I was a little bummed it was only 21, but then I looked at what was higher and decided it was understandable. I don't know if I agree the matches in the top 20 were all better than Michaels/Shelton, but they were definitely good matches that belong in the top 20. And I was also pleasantly surprised that the Dallas Ten-man was ranked as high as it was. I still say that's one of the most underrated main events ever, even though it does get credit among online fans. That's the same match I immediately looked for as well. There's some more unexpected/magical about a mid carder and a main eventer having a match like that one was. Sure Cena/Michaels was a great match too, but it's John Cena against Shawn Michaels, it's expected. We all know Shelton is a great wrestler and can put on a great match, but that isn't always what we get when mid card faces main event.

You know I was glancing through this list and it seemed pretty good.
Then I noted #42. That's the match where Batista came out with the basketball. Is that in there as a joke?

Chris Benoit should be substituted with The Radicalz from now on. This list deserves Kurt Angle vs. One of the Radicalz OR Austin/HHH vs. Jericho/Radical ![;)](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/wink.png)

#21 should be either #2 or #1. Dead serious
