So there are a ton of forgotten little matches that ended up being pretty entertaining matches. Heres two of my favorites...
Nothing technical here but a very entertaining No DQ match between these two. Booker hitting the Houston Hangover was always a great sight.
Sick IC Title match. Regal gave RVD a pounding and always made his stuff look legit.
What are some of your guys favorite forgotten matches?

Randy Orton vs. Rob Van Dam - Armageddon 2003
Really good match that saw Orton start his reign as Intercontinental Champion. Best match on the card in my opinion.

Not sure why, but I recently popped in my Attitude Era set and watched Double J vs D'Lo Brown from Summerslam 99. That was a pretty damn good match, with a very surprising ending.

I have to say, the main event for No Way Out of Texas was an entertaining one. While it sucked that HBK was taken out of the match, Savio Vega did a good job filling in. Had a lot of fun spots in it, and they did an ok job continuing the heat between Austin and DX going into WM 14, with Austin giving Chyna the Stunner to end the show.

Yeah, they came unglued when he was in. I remember Funk took some nasty bumps in that match, including one, where he fell head first to the floor from the ring. Funny spot too when Billy Gunn tried to come in, and from his team's corner, Austin tossed a smashed up trash can, nailing him, and sending Billy retreating.

Stone Cold Steve Austin vs. Triple H from Buried Alive In Your House. I got the chance to watch this on the Best of In Your House set. This match is a solid outing between both men. Despite it was heel vs. heel, they did a good job with their performance. It will ultimately lead to two more PPV matches (No Mercy 1999 and Survivor Series 2000). I am surprised we didn't see a lengthy feud between Austin and Triple H.

I am surprised we didn't see a lengthy feud between Austin and Triple H. Well when you think of it, they likely would have, but each had a major injury at a time when it could have happened. You had Austin going down with his neck problems, taking him out of the Survivor Series match, and then once the Two Man Power Trip ended, a feud would have been likely, but Triple H's first quad tear ended the team early.

Kurt Angle vs Shane McMahon @ KOTR 2001 is still one of my most favorite matches...Kurt needs to come back, and so does Shane for that matter.

Make that four matches between Austin and Triple H. The 3 Stages of Hell match was easily their best match out of the four. I was shocked when Triple H won that match. *slaps self with a ruler* Another choice for a forgotten match would be The Rock vs. Kurt Angle from No Mercy 2000. Their encounter at No Way Out 2001 overshadowed their No Mercy '00 outing. I thought the encounter at No Mercy '00 was excellent. I loved the finish and thus allowing Kurt Angle to win his first WWF Championship.

Since it's been just WWE matches that have been discussed, I'll add two from outside WWE rings. Shane Douglas defending the ECW Title against Al Snow at WrestlePalooza 98 I believe. Always thought it never got the praise it deserved, and liked at the end the ECW locker room was in the ring, and put both Snow and Douglas on their shoulders. The other was from Hardcore Heaven 99 when Taz defended the title against Bubba Ray Dudley. Just a good all out brawl, and Bubba despite being just a tag team wrestler at the time, looked like he belonged in the main event.
