Most Under Rated Matches
In the past month we have been treated to one of the best wrestling feuds/matches in quite some time. This will go down in history as one of the greatest of all time and quite rightly so.
However, in wrestling history there have been matches that haven't been given credit that they deserve and I'd like the 606v2 wrestling community to put forward their matches that have been under rated in the past. I'll put my match up forward.
Edge v Undertaker -Wrestlemania 24;
One of my all time favourite feuds. Both wrestlers had been epic for almost a year that always had me completely engrossed throughout. It was also the first time I remember thinking that the Undertaker would actually lose at Wrestlemania. The build up was superb and the match itself was sensational. So many near calls, Edge kicking out numerous Tombstones and vice versa with Undertaker kicking out of several of Edge's finishers. It has however I feel never been given the credit it deserved.
Your views/opinions?

That is a fantastic match. I may actually go look out my Edge DVD to watch it. Wasn't that Edge's PPV debut too?

Re: Most Under Rated Matches
I agree with Abe that the Edge vs Taker match was realluy under-rated.
Another match that I love that I think is under-rated is Mankind vs Shawn Michaels at IYH, it was up until 2004 Mick Foley's favourite match he had been in and was an awesome match to watch.

Mankind vs Taker boiler room matches. Often get overshadowed by the HIAC match but much better IMO.
Jericho vs HHH WM18. Obviously massively overshadowed by Hogan/Rock and a big mistake putting it last on the card. Still, very good match.

Close but No Edge wrestled with sable at Summerslam before that, but it was the first time Christian appeared in the WWF
I didn't actually know it was on his DVD, I got the video of breakdown and watch it every now and again

Probably because CM Punk carries Orton the entire match, Orton comes out with a single RKO and wins it. Was more frustrating than enjoyable

Re: Most Under Rated Matches
Mine is one most of you probably won't remember, a couple of years back, in the lead up to Bragging Rights '09 I believe, I always enjoyed a match from Raw contested between arguably the two most hated men by the IWC- Triple H and John Cena. Lots of good spots and near falls, with an unpredictable and surprising finish.

Triple H vs Owen Hart at WM14 was a match I loved at the time but never really got any praise. I haven't seen it for at least ten years though so I've got no idea if it holds up!

Really Crips??? - Do you not remember how silly it was having Chyna handcruffed to Slaughter at ringside?
Bret Hart vs Razor Ramon Royal Rumble 93?

Well, I was completely wet behind the ears at the time. I had no knowledge of anything other than what I saw on TV. Obviously I knew it was, to some extent, pre-determined, but that was about it.
Like I said, I haven't seen it for years. Although on paper I like the Chyna stip as it made sense, and I like how the heels overcame the stip. I remember being really incensed when they cheated Owen out of the win, because in those days I loved the babyfaces and hated the heels.

Re: [No title]
I always use this example but; Macho Man & Mr. Perfect v. Ric Flair and Razor Ramon from Survivor Series 92. Brilliant storytelling and Heenan on commentary sold Perfect's face turn really well.
My favourite tag match ever, much prefer it to all that TLC business
