From what I've seen: -WarGames (WrestleWar 1992) Lots of good choices/answers there, but I don't remember the details of this match. What happened?

Worked emotion: Bret Hart vs Owen Hart, in a steel cage at Summerslam 94.
A match whose emotion was deadly serious (and almost led to death) was New Jack vs Vic Grimes at the XPW Freefall event. New Jack tried to take Grimes' life for causing him to go blind in one eye.

From my youth: Royal Rumble 1994, just for the moment when everyone thought Bret had to drop out of it due to injury, only the horn to sound a few entrants later, nobody comes out...then Bret comes limping out, to one of the biggest pops I had ever heard to that point. I was 9 at the time, and was speechless.
Recently: I was there for Punk vs. Aries at DBD3, and I've never, EVER seen such a large group of people reacting the way they did. It was a complete lovefest, then a feisty-ness all though the match as we pulled for what we thought would be the impossible (Punk winning in his "last match"), before turning into a sea of chaos and confusion after the match, to reverting to pure mark-out form when Daniels made his return. I was tired as HELL after that show, just from the emotions.
Also from ROH: Strong/Danielson I, for reasons already given (anger), and Joe/Punk III, which had been built to better than almost any feud-ender I have ever seen. Watching that had the same kind of vibe you got when you were a kid and saw Hogan/Warrior, and seeing Joe go so far as the cheat out of desperation at one point added a whole new level to the match.

It was a feud that stopped WCW from doing what it usually did: bore people to death. Fans actually cared about the Sting's Squadron vs. Dangerous Alliance feud, it included established main-eventers as well as fresh mid-card talent ready to be pushed, and the payoff was a crimson masterpiece.
