These used to be the highlight of wrestling shows at times. Does anyone have a favorite? The usual go-to is usually Austin vs Rock at WrestleMania X-Seven. I'm a big fan of the one made for Eddie vs Lesnar in 2004 too.
There's also a great series of these in WWF around 96/97. The Final Four and Bret vs Undertaker were also great, loved the narration then.
Honorable mention to Savage's promo at the top of Mania 5 that doubles as promo and video package. Unrivaled energy. "COVERIN' FOR HOGAN AGAIN!"
What are some of your guys'?

There are so many amazing ones, I couldn't possibly list all of the ones I loved.
One I do remember vividly was the HBK-Angle one from WM 21, probably because it is an all time favorite match of mine. The whole 96 references to Angle's Gold Medal and HBK's iron man match were s great touch.

96-98 IMO had the best ones.The narration and music were just amazingly good during those years.
*edit* like when they used this epic song for the intro video to Rumble 96 |

*edit* like when they used this epic song for the intro video to Rumble 96 Talking about a specific piece of music, I always loved Father to Son, which they used for part of the video for WrestleMania XX It just has a sound of importance and epicness to it. I remember when Jinsei Shinzaki (Hakushi) wrestle Great Muta at Battle Formation 96, he used the song for his entrance, which was one of the many things that make me love that match. (One that I would recommend.) And to get back more on topic, some that I loved I've always loved this song, since the first time I heard it in the 2004 Punisher movie. Sure the match ended up kinda falling flat, but that use of Evil Ways by Blue Saraceno, was just so good. A couple others that I can't really find good videos for were Austin vs. Undertaker at Rock Bottom for Buried Alive, and Austin vs. Dude Love at No Mercy. And these were two that just used some stock music, but did a good job to hype up the matches. Sad thing is, I think, it was like every PPV they would have a great promo package for the event and the main event, while now, it's fewer and far between. |
