Does this pertain to just WWE or it's subsidiaries like AWA, ECW, WCW etc etc, as well?

HBK vs Y2J at WMXIX is near the top, if post match counts as well. Jericho at his best.

Well, the Curb Stomp into RKO from last year's Mania springs to mind. That was dope.

HBK Vs Bret, Survivor Series 1997. Along with being one of the most significant moments in wrestling history for it's non kayfabe elements alone, the finish gave birth to one of the biggest heel characters in Mr. McMahon. No match finish has ever been more talked about which IMO takes it straight to the top of the list. A monumental moment in pro wrestling history.

While kinda basic by today's standards, I marked out HARD for Warrior vs. Hogan at WrestleMania VI. To that point, I had never seen anyone break up the Hulk-Up sequence before. When Hogan went into it I completely deflated (I was a big Warrior mark and I was already sick of Hogan...two years into my fandom, no less). When Warrior avoided the leg drop I started just screaming, and it just got louder when Warrior hit another splash and got the win.

Shelton vs HBK ending is worth noting.

Quite a few randy RKO finishers (Seth and Evan Bourne)
