A lot of the matches widely considered the best WWF matches of the 90s - Austin/Bretx2, Bret/Owen, Savage/Warrior, Bret/Dave, Shawn/Razor etc are IC or non-title matches. So I was wondering... What are your Top 5 WWF World Title Matches of the 90s?

gene kelly is sincerely one of the greatest athletes i have ever seen

Since the day it happened, Hogan vs Andre WrestleMania III has always been the ultimate litmus test for good taste.

pretty interesting how the rizzler only appears in aew when taz has some time off...

I thought Big Boom AJ vs QT Marshall was awesome. I expected it to be fun but it wildly exceeded my expectations. Great job laying it out, both guys really delivered what they needed to & it was a blast.

Jerry Lawler vs. Kerry Von Erich from SuperClash 3 is just wonderful. ****1/4

What's your Favorite/Best match with one or more wrestlers you don't particularly like?

Vader vs Scott Norton, NJPW 1991-05-31, 1991-06-12, 1991-08-09, 1991-09-23 THEY ALL RULE. This is how you do two huge monsters battling! Norton is such a great firey babyface on comebacks! #GWE 5/31 - 7.25/10 6/12 - 8/10 8/9 - 9/10 9/23 - 8/10

So how do I watch AJ vs QT Marshall match? It's on the pre-show? Not the PPV?

One of the best to ever do it. Babyface or heel, across multiple territories, years and opponents.

Man, Manami was fucking on one in this GAEA run. Fantastic title match here where Chiyako immediately feels like the challenger despite coming in with the belt. youtu.be/Yf_Kf6G3eAE

Today’s break graps.

🤼I'm not a big Bruiser Brody fan but that guy had one of the best knee drops I've ever seen. Look at this🤼

I've been wondering this as well...

For those not familiar with Charles' work, he's doing an amazing job chronicling pro wrestling through the medium of "footage," using the text itself and available contextual sources to create maybe the most coherent and comprehensive history of pro wrestling ever. Give it a look.

If TK was a real dvdvr SICKO~!, he would've put Phil Schneider in charge of booking. We all saw the DEAN show.

Going through the Greatest Wrestler Index of Nominees forums.prowrestlingonly.com/topic/52877-... #GWE

It can’t be undersold just how good The Shield actually was. I mean this wholeheartedly, one of the greatest year runs any act has had this century. Not only were they over as hell, they were having fantastic matches every single week. They helped keep a sinking ship afloat. Transcendent trio.

Warrior is one of those wrestlers that certain fans emphasize the negatives while completely ignoring the positives.

In 1990, Warrior was laughed at in the ring by the Japanese crowd as he defended against Dibiase. In 1991, he made sure no one was going to laugh at him. If you only see one minute out of his entire career, this is the minute. Plus, an all time bit of bumping from Sarge.

When it comes to Greatest Wrestler Ever #GWE I have my top 4 locked in: 1. Terry Funk - I voted him 1st in 2016, I'll vote him 1st again. 2. Dump Matsumoto - At her best the best I've ever seen. I couldn't put her higher than 2. 3. Andre the Giant 4. Jerry Lawler

Yes, yes I will stop everything to watch this match where this happened to El Hijo del Santo. www.youtube.com/watch?v=6egR...

Who Framed Roger Rabbit Still blows my mind to this day.

This seems like fun! Change it up a bit.

Jun Akiyama is Number One #GWE

Again, I have a TON of blind spots. That said, these wrestlers feel like locks for my #GWE as of right now: Bryan Danielson Aja Kong Buddy Rose Meiko Satomura Mayumi Ozaki Rey Mysterio John Cena

The more I see of Tenryu, the more I'm convinced he could be number one.

My #GWE Top !0 at this point: 1. Terry Funk 2. Dump Matsumoto 3. Andre the Giant 4. Jerry Lawler 5. The Destroyer 6. El Satanico 7. El Hijo del Santo 9. Devil Masami 9. Stan Hansen 10. Bull Nakano

Idl how many GWE heads follow me on here yet but this app would be a great way to spark discussion on the project given the implementation of feeds. All you would have to do is create one and make it to where the hashtag #GWE pops up in that feed

Shinobu Kandori vs. Megumi Kudo (LLPW Korakuen Hall 1/5/97) www.josephmontecillo.com/2024/11/17/s...

It's almost shocking how great Hogan was as a worker given his reputation among "smart" fans. It's easy to find good/great matches and performances. Finding outright bad ones is trickier. They exist but there aren't nearly as many as people who don't actually watch the matches suggest

Here's my (relatively) quick DVDVR review of the Inoki vs Saito Island Death Match. Note that the WON thought this was basically the worst thing ever at the time even if NJPW fans in Japan voted it the match of the year.

This opening to Hogan vs Piper from The War to Settle the Score feels like a moment sort of lost to history, but the bit with Mr. T and then Hogan rushing right in and throwing hands with Piper as the theme is still playing, comes off like the most dynamic thing that happened in the entire WWF era.

86-88 NJPW Takada is basically the Dean Malenko of UWF-in-NJPW and I mean that in the worst way you can imagine. The thriving, gripping, writhing soul of pro wrestling does not escape into reality through that man's face, and whatever it is, stoicism it is not, so that's not an out for him.

I've been badgering Grimmas to make a case for Don Muraco as one of the 100 greatest wrestlers ever for like 10 years and they did and did an awesome job! Check this out & watch some Muraco!

I figure everyone gets a couple of strikes here and I choose to use them on this, the thing that got the account KO'd on the other place. It's a great piece of business, Andre getting a foot up on his own partner to save himself and then basing for a Maeda dive! People should be allowed to see it.

General Match Recommendation Thread: This will just be an ongoing thread of matches I really like & recommend people check out.

Let's get some prime Giant Baba on the timeline. Full match before I clip out some highlights. www.youtube.com/watch?v=w44f...

Favorite movie!

Jack Lemmon was such a great actor

By far the only Boxing anyone needs today. Andre vs Gorilla in Puerto Rico.

To follow up on Gorilla - I'm convinced at this point that he's the GOAT Special Guest Ref and it's not particularly close. He is the perfect blend of enforcer & guy you absolutely trust to do the right thing. Every match I've seen him as the guest ref is better because of it.

🤼Back in July some twitter dumbfuck said Ric Flair didn't have any high spots and wasn't a technical wrestler so I had to spend a couple days watching and clipping Flair matches. Now I'm bringing that thread over here. So, you're welcome.🤼

Top 5 AJPW match I've ever seen

I wanted to make sure my first post here was somewhat important, so here we go; Does anyone know where I can find April 17th 1987 episode of Stampede?😅

Yall think next year is the year Dave sends me a WON HOF ballot? 🤣

One of the greatest, most shocking moments in wrestling history, the start of Baba/Rusher vs Tenryu/Hansen from 11/29/89. Not a single person in that crowd had any idea this was coming. The pageantry of the Real World Tag League shattered by a chaotic revolutionary.
