Would anybody and everybody care to list their favorites? Especially ones
on video? Or are there any:)

I will throw out Giant taking title from Flair on RAW. Desperately
attempted screwjob did not come off, I can still her Woman's screams, or
was that every match of those days:) And I loved it that the Giant didn't
sell. (I mean during that time frame not just that match:)

And, as I recall when Sanmartino and Santana beat Savange and Adrian
Adonis in a steel cage. Thought Savage and Satana would be best on their
teams, was I mistaken, could it have been planned that way on purpose?:)

Don't know that these matches were significant, but at least they were not
too obscure:)

1. Hulk Hogan beats the Iron Sheik for the WWF title.
2. Bruno Sammartino beats Buddy Rogers for the WWF title
3. Ric Flair beats Harley Race for the NWA title (Race's last title reign
ends)

But that the dread of something after death,
The undiscover'd country, from whose bourn,
No traveller returns, puzzles the will,
And makes us rather bear those ills we have,
Than fly to others that we know not of?

In my opinion, Ultimate Warrior defeating Hulk Hogan for World Title to
gain both IC and World Titles of WWF. This is the biggest non screw job
match of all time. Has Hogan ever jobbed without some bullshit besides
this match. I was alot more of a kid when I saw this match and I was
shocked. I wanted the Warriar all the way... I haf begun to hate Hogan,
but to actually see him lose was amazing. Besides that I would say Bulldog
over Bret. And flair over Race.
