The second was really high up on my board. I think you're remiss, however, for failing to mention Heenan's legendary call of the Flair RR victory.

This next pick is my favorite moment of all time:



HBK returning from retirement and winning the WHC in the first ever Elimination Chamber match. I never thought I would ever see Shawn wrestle again, and I especially never thought I would see him win the championship again. This was my biggest markout moment, and the moment that got me back into wrestling.

Yeah, Saliva's King of My World, which fits him at the time where his gimmick is he is the king of his own world.

Part of what makes the HBK win so good is how much lolHHHwins went on before it. I honestly thought there was no way HHH was putting him over.

Yeah, HHH put him over for a full month! What a crock HBK held the title for 1 month in his 8 years of returning

Burdz is more of a quantity-over-quality troll.

seriously this. was seriously nothing more than a token reign. 28 days in the middle of the year of H and he won it in a 6 man elimination match. H didn't really put him over

considering the people who have held the whc/wwe titles during the full-time return of michaels there wasn't really much of a reason he should have only had 1 off-month reign. sure he doesn't NEED to have the belt to be over but neither did cena/orton/h

Doing my usual silent creep of these threads, this is an awesome draft.

Maybe I shouldn't be, but kinda surprised Snuka's steel cage Superfly Splash on Muraco at MSG fell as far as it did. Top 5 for me and easily my favourite wrestling clip ever. That was a gamechanger and its impact shouldn't be understated.

Agree with SRM that Hogan/Andre WM III is the pretty clear objective #1.

My second-round pick:

It was October of 1992. I had been following wrestling for just under a year, and was pumped about attending my first live WWF show. Sure, I had ordered WM VIII and SummerSlam '92 on PPV, but I was sure the live event would be much more exciting.
The WWF came to town for a Superstars taping, and the show itself was memorable for two reasons. First of all, if you've seen the clip where Marty Jannetty hits Sensational Sherri with HBK's heart-shaped mirror, that happened at this taping. Also on the card though, was a WWF title match between Ric Flair and Bret Hart.

Hart was the challenger, having lost the IC strap to Davey Boy Smith at SummerSlam from Wembley Stadium. Flair was in the midst of his second WWF reign, having regained the title from Randy Savage about 6 weeks previous in Hershey, PA. Flair was also "advised" by Mr. Perfect, so as an impressionable 10-year old boy, I certainly thought the deck was stacked against Hart.

The arena itself (Saskatchewan Place/Credit Union Centre) celebrated its 25th anniversary over the weekend, so it is somewhat appropriate I'm selecting this moment now. The arena has hosted numerous concerts, Blades games, World Juniors, and a Memorial Cup (soon to be two). But I wouldn't trade my presence at this moment for anything.

With my second pick and eighteenth overall, I select:

Spoiler:
October 12, 1992 - Saskatoon, Saskatchewan, Canada
Bret Hart defeats Ric Flair to win the WWF Championship for the first time

The "mystery partner" tease in wrestling usually turns out to be lame as ****. But once in a long while, it's Hulk Hogan turning heel after 15 years. And sometimes, it's an awe-inspiring debut that launches a legendary career of 20+ years.

As a kid, few debuts made a bigger impression than watching The Undertaker completely manhandle Dusty Rhodes, the Hart Foundation and Koko B. Ware as Ted DiBiase's mystery partner at the 1990 Survivor Series.
