I've done thread like this in the past, and people basically just bash the list ....things need to be higher/lower, added, dropped. But The purpose of this thread is to list YOUR favorite matches. These are the ones that i feel will/do "stand the test of time" Each of these are special for their own reasons. I can already see people complaining there is no Eddie Guerrero, Chris Beniot, and Brock Lesnar. But I didn't feel those matches really stood up against the ones listed.

Good list Montana. I would add CIMA, Shingo & Susumu Yokosuka vs. Dragon Kid, Ryo Saito & Masaaki Mochizuki from Supercard of Honor II somewhere in there. That was the first ROH dvd I ever purchased after only watching 2 ROH video wires. Other than that, pretty solid. If nobody likes it, they can make there own.

Yeah, that was around the 16-20 range on mine. As great of a match as it was, I feel it didn't really change/impact Ring of Honor all that much. Pretty much, if it wasn't 5 stars...it could very easily have been forgotten. Plus i was going for more "american matches" which i didn't state. Even though that match did happen in the US. I also had to make a change to #15 and add Hogan/HBK to the list.

A few other matches people love, that i didn't add HHH vs. Chris Beniot vs. HBK at WM 20. I've had debates with this match all the time. To me, it's good but not great. Lesnar vs. Angle is high on peoples list. HHH vs. Catus Jack, Cena Umaga which i really like, but not top 15. HBK vs HHH from SummerSlam, HHH vs. AUstin NWO 2001, and more.
