‘Classic’ Matches
By Scott Keith on 26 November 2018
Hey Scott
Are there any matches that are considered all time classics or matches of the year that you don't personally enjoy as much as everyone else due to personal taste or just not seeing what the big deal is?
For me it's always been Eddie Guerrero vs Rey Mysterio from Halloween Havoc 97.
Don't get me wrong it's a great match but I never thought it deserved the full five stars and I'd probably go with a rating of ****1/4 at most.
A lot of the WCW output from the 90s with the lucha libre six-man matches were considered classics, and it took me until years later to really start enjoying them as a thing on their own. The problem at the time is that I didn't really understand the style and I was looking for more of the storyline stuff, whereas now I'm just enjoying the car crash aspect when I watch them and they're amazing.
