    John Cena vs Kane - Royal Rumble 2012 The build-up to this match was so fucking stupid. Yet, the majority of the match was pretty decent. The story just revolved around Kane dominating with Cena trying to get in little flurries of offense whenever he gets the chance. Easily, the best aspect of...

    Royal Rumble Match - Royal Rumble 1998 In perhaps the most obvious winner in Royal Rumble history, Steve Austin becomes the third man to win the Rumble for the second straight year.

    Royal Rumble Match - Royal Rumble 1996 It's a Rumble in which Shawn Michaels makes history as only the second man in history to win the match two years in a row. It's the WWE PPV debut of Steve Austin. It's even the return of Jake Roberts after being away for nearly four years. However, all of...

    Royal Rumble Match - Royal Rumble 1994 Diesel's early one man show starts the Rumble off with a bang. Despite being a heel, once he's eliminated, the crowd chants his name. It's really the start of Diesel's monster push. Lack of stars in this hurt a lot. Minus Diesel, Bret Hart, Lex Luger, Shawn...

    Royal Rumble Match - Royal Rumble 1992 If there's one match in the history of wrestling that best illustrates how amazing commentary can help make a great match even better, it's this.

    Royal Rumble Match - Royal Rumble 1990 Talk about an underrated classic. Starts off with DiBiase having to start off at number 1 when he bought his way into the 30th spot the previous year. That doesn't stop him from easily eliminating Koko B Ware and Marty Jannetty though. First big moment...

    Royal Rumble Match - Royal Rumble 1988 The very first televised Royal Rumble match. For you trivia buffs, entrant #3 Butch Reed, makes history as being the first wrestler in Rumble history to be eliminated. This Rumble plays out much differently than others.

    Samoa Joe vs Nigel McGuinness - It All Begins Joe's first ROH match since losing the ROH Title while Nigel is still trying to find his role in the company. Interesting enough, they created a whole story built around Nigel McGuinness' headstand in the corner. I guess in a previous tag, Nigel...

    Katsuyori Shibata vs Yutaka Yoshie - NJPW's G1 Clixmax - August 14, 2004 I believe this is late in the tournament. Yoshie is a big fat Japanese guy who wears a pink singlet. Once you see him, it's difficult forgetting him. I don't know if I'd say he was a "Good" wrestler, but the guy knows his...

    El Generico vs Samuray Del Sol - EVOLVE 14 First time seeing Del Sol. I don't care what he does in the future, but please don't take off the mask. Remove the mask and he's just another tiny wrestler. Del Sol may just be a spot monkey, but he's incredible. The only downside is that he isn't too...
