Your Favorite Match (WWE Era -- post 2002)

[Branimal]

I thought I'd throw this one out there.

I could ask for your favorite match of all time but I was curious to what people thought the best match of the past 5 years was.

I have to say..after finishing the HBK DVD yesterday..

HBK vs Kurt Angle (Wrestlemania 21 Re-Match) -- Vengeance 2005

I think that this match has been HBK's best since his initial return (with Y2J @ WM 19 being a close second). I was skeptical when I sat down to watch it..having never seen it before..thinking it wouldn't even come close to the amazing match they had at WM 21.

I was hooked after the German Suplex spot on the announce table within the first 7 minutes or so.

I think that was the best one on one wrestling match of the last 5 years..I could be wrong after I see what everyone else has to say..

I'm going to say Foley vs. Orton at Backlash 2004.

hmm... i'll go with the first MITB... it had a bunch of great spots and was a pretty new thing

[Ben Wyatt]

Benoit/Angle Rumble 03

[Munkie91087]

Shawn Michaels vs. Chris Jericho: Wrestlemania 19.

Kelly Kelly vs Layla - ECW 2007

Lots of good mat wrestling, pinning combinations.

I will second this instant classic. We must also not forget their classic segment in which Kelly and Layla threw Thanksgiving food at each other featuring such classic moments like when Kelly struggled to open a can of whipped cream as Layla watched on in complete non-emotional form.

But in all seriousness my favorite match that WWE has put on since 2002 would probably be Mike Awesome (vs) Masato Tanaka from the first One Night Stand and if that doesn't count then I would have to say Angle/Benoit from Royal Rumble 2003.

Well for me its ether Lonrick Vs. Regal/Taylor Vs. MNM Vs. The Hardyz, ladder Match from Armgeddon 2006, or Angle Vs. HBK from WWE Homecoming.

[GregP19]

The ladder match at Armegeddon last year for sure.

[Mike's a Midnight Express Mark]

The Armageddon ladder match was really good, but Tanaka/Awesome from ONS is ten thousand times better.

Maybe its cuz I was never really that into the original ECW that I dont really put this match on a pedistal. Its ok, but I remember tlast year thinking Armageddon was gonna suck, but the addition of this match got the Hooters crowd pumped up and mercury's face exploding almost made my wings come up. IDK why, but I really love this match, I'll even say it's the greatest ladder match ever

[shiranui]

Benoit vs. Angle from Rumble 2003 was my favorite for a long time, but I don't think I'll be able to watch it again... thus, I'll choose the HBK/Angle Mania match. That was great, as were their other ones.

Underrated: Christian vs. Jericho - WM 20; close second would be Akio vs. London I

Regular: WM 20 Triple-Threat Main Event.
