Ben Mawson’s 10 Matches You Need To See
As a wrestling fan, I want to see good matches and to be honest, I want to see fantastic matches as it just reminds me why I’m a fan. I’ve been watching wrestling for almost 3 years now and during my time, I’ve seen great matches so let’s count down 10 matches that you need to see.
10) Jeff Hardy Vs. Matt Hardy - Wrestlemania 25
In 2019, we’ve see Jeff Hardy Vs. Matt Hardy loads of times but possibly the biggest match they had was at Wrestlemania 25 and despite nothing being on the line, it felt like everything was on the line. It was a feud that couldn’t get any more personal.
“What about my dog man, what about Jack? What about Jack?” That line still breaks my heart to this day. Despite Matt setting Jeff’s house on fire, trying to kill Jeff with a firework and killing Jeff’s dog Matt, they still team together in 2019.

9) Stone Cold Vs. The Undertaker Vs. The Rock Vs. Kurt Angle Vs. Triple H Vs. Rikishi - Armagedddon 2000
This match is on my list not only because its a great match but it's hell in a cell match too. This was chaos - 6 men in one lethal structure, it’s a crazy match and a match you need to see. It’s 5 of the biggest names in WWE history and Rikishi, the match is insane.
8) Tyler Bate Vs. Pete Dunne- NXT Takeover: Chicago
When this match was announced for takeover, I knew it wouldn’t something special and I was correct. This match was such an entertaining match and really kept me hooked for the entire duration of the match. Tyler Bate and Pete Dunne shared such great chemistry, the reason why you need to watch this match is the fact that they are so young, they’re the future of WWE.
7) The Undertaker Vs. Shawn Michaels - Wrestlemania 25
This match is just a classic and keeps you gripped all the way through. The Undertaker’s streak was on the line and it felt so prestigious. Shawn Michaels really wanted to beat The Undertaker and put everything on the line but it wasn’t enough. That was the last time they ever fought at Wrestlemania.
6) Shawn Michaels Vs. The Undertaker - Wrestlemania 26
Yeah, they fought the following year and it was just as good as the original if not even better but because it features shawns retirement its higher on this list. The story of this match makes it even more compelling than the first. Michaels thought he had the right strategy to beat Taker but he didn’t and put his career on the line to get this match.
5) Edge & Christian Vs. The Dudley Boyz Vs. The Hardy Boyz - Wrestlemania 17
Its the second in these three's TLC rivalry and its still as good as ever. I don’t think I’ll ever get bored of this match and to this day, I still watch it on a regular basis. Wrestlemania needs these TLC’s to return with teams like The Usos’, The New Day and possibly the Hardy Boyz.
4) The Dudley Boyz Vs. Edge & Christian Vs. The Hardy Boyz - Summerslam 2000
It’s another TLC match and they’re just fantastic to watch, it really is a spectacle, bodies fly and it’s just so fun to watch. Seriously, you need to watch these matches - it’s something every wrestling fan needs to watch.
3) Edge, Mick Foley & Lita Vs. Terry Funk, Tommy Dreamer & Beulah - ECW One Night Stand 2006
This is a match, I didn’t think would be good when first watching it but was I wrong this is a great match. Not enough people know about this match and that’s why it’s on the list. It’s an ECW hidden gem and after watching this match, I want to watch more ECW.
2) Triple H Vs. The Undertaker- Wrestlemania 28
This stole the show, straight up. I still jump up every time I see The Undertaker kick out of the sweet chin music/pedigree combination. This hell in a cell match may hurt be one of the best hell in a cell matches of all time. It’s another streak match and to be honest, I just miss the streak. There’s one thing for certain, The Undertaker always puts on good matches at Wrestlemania.
1) The Dudley Boyz Vs. The Hardy Boyz Vs. Edge & Christian - Wrestlemania 2000
This may just be the greatest match in Wrestlemania history. I freaking love the TLC matches at Wrestlemania and this one may just be the best one. All 3 teams put everything on the line and it paid off, what a match.
