My Top 5 Underrated Wrestling Matches

Intro

What is the definition, of the word underrated? To me the answer is simple. It means. A match that has gone under the radar, but due to education surrounding the industry, has been looked at in a differant light. Here are my top examples of this.

5 Kenny Omega vs El Hiro Del Vikingo AEW Dynamite 22nd Of March 2023.

This. Was one of the best TV matches from last year, and in my opinion, it went heavily under looked. Omega had another year in ring, working for Tony Khans little promotion, and this was a highlight, in my opinion.

4 Bret Hart vs Mr Perfect Intercontinental Championship Summerslam 1991.

The only thing I can say about this match, is this. It's simply perfect, and is essential viewing.

3 Bret Hart vs A Monster WCW Nitro 1999.

Bret Hart, lived by the monicker. The Best There Is. The Best There Was. And The Best There Ever Will Be, and this match was his way of getting younger talent over, this would come at the behest of older talent, holding younger talent down. This. Match is sublime viewing. But unfortunately due to his opponents actions eight years later. The Monster would be banished from all memory by the WWE.

2 Kurt Angle vs The Monster WrestleMania 17.

This. Is a technical clinic, that needs to beholded as a classic, but due to the actions of The Monster, that would come six years later. This. Match now gets looked at in a differant light, and I get why.

1 Rey Mysterio vs Eddie Guerro WCW Halloween Havoc 1997.

This. Is in the list of my favourite wrestling matches ever, but nowadays, it gets overlooked, and that's a shame, because these guys had incredible chemistry, and their physicality was never matched by anyone else. I love this match.
