Vs. Bundy, Gang and Andre in the main event at Survivor Series 87 - Bam Bam was seen as a main event guy then and he tried to do his best after beating Bundy, Gang and then coming to a loss with Andre pinning him
Vs. Bret Hart at KOTR 93 - What a great match! It was so much fun to watch. Bam Bam even pinned Bret thanks to interference from Luna, but it was reversed and the match was restarted and Bret got the win in a great roll up spot.
Vs. Diesel on Raw for the WWF Title in April 1995 - A personal favourite since it involves Diesel, but such a sold, entertaining match. And it helped the story line with Diesel vs. the Million Dollar Corporation and Bam Bam becoming a face.
Vs. Shane Douglas for the ECW World Title at November To Remember 97 - Another personal favourite of mine because I am a huge fan of Shane Douglas. The fact that the show was in Pittsburgh too was fun because it made Shane the baby face and Bam Bam the heel that night. The ending with the belly to belly suplex through the table was amazing too!

Almost added the SSeries match. The story told with em in the end there was so well done |

I was trying to think of 4 and couldn't, not because he isn't talented, but because I just can't remember that many of his matches. His stuff with Bret in 1993 was great. As too was his match with Taz in ECW, but after those, I don't remember a lot of his matches. I'm going to have to go back and watch more of his work. Definitely going to have to look at that Raw match with Diesel, I was watching wrestling at this time, and I don't remember them having a match, strange. Same with him and RVD, I didn't know they worked together in a match.

Yeah, with the way they were pushing him, it looked like he was eventually going to turn on Hogan and become one of his rivals, but I guess they decided to go with Savage. He went from getting a big push, to working house shows with Hogan against DiBiase and Andre, to moving down the card quickly and then he was gone by the summer of 1988. |

vs Bret Hart, KOTR '93
Survivor Series '87
vs Tatanka, Royal Rumble '94
Royal Rumble '94 - when I first saw this as a 8-year old, I couldn't stop laughing when he eliminated Doink.

He was such a good big man, one of the best and he looked so badass too!
VS Bret Hart: King of the Ring 1993: I still feel that Bret Hart's performance here is the best one night performance in wrestling history! This was such a fun match, these two had great chemistry together and that brings me to my next pick.
VS Bret Hart: WWF Tour 1993 Glasgow Scotland: Just like in 1992, the WWF did a huge tour in the UK and Europe in 1993 and the show I went to was headlined by Bret Hart vs Bam Bam Bigelow. I am sure these guys wrestled all over the world in 1993 and it may be becasue I was there live, but this match was even better than the one they would have a few months later at King of the Ring!
VS Diesel: RAW 1995: This one is bitter sweet as it actually is a good story with Bam Bam turning face, but it was also the death of him in the WWF as a face he sucked. Him and Diesel had great chemistry and I think that Diesel's 95 would have been so much better if he was dealing with a heel Bam Bam Bigelow until he got to Bret at Survivor Series. This is such a fun match and one that is overlooked.
VS RVD: ECW 1998: If I had to do a top ten list of ECW matches this one would be on it. I was all in on RVD during this time and Bam Bam in ECW was such a badass, these guys beat the hell out of each other!

I just wanted to say here I noticed something.
It seemed pretty much all the matches we are choosing are matches where Bam Bam Bigelow lost.
Kind of interesting that matches he loses in are considered amazing. Goes to show what kind of worker Bigelow really was in the ring!

Have other wrestler making fun of his loss to Taylor, only for Bam Bam to get angry and start attacking and destroying other wrestlers. He should have had big feud with Diesel and should have faced him at Summer Slam 1995. |

He should have had big feud with Diesel and should have faced him at Summer Slam 1995. 1000% this If they did go this route, should Bam Bam have won the title from Diesel and had a short run with the title belt? He could have won it at Summer Slam then dropped it back to Diesel on either the September or October PPV, or even on a Monday Night Raw to help push the tag line they were using at the time - "Anything can happen live on Monday Night Raw". Diesel title reign wasn't the best, I wonder how he would have been as a chaser of the belt for a short while. Though, if Bam Bam does win the belt and hold it for a few months, would that hurt the Diesel/Hart match at Survivor Series? Going into Survivor Series, Diesel looked like an unstoppable force, having Bret beat him the way he did helped make Bret look like a true champion, and it didn't hurt Diesel one bit. |

It'd be a nice nod but I think in the end Diesel retains. Him losing to Bret at SSeries and snapping post match was the perfect end to his reign. Gotta stick with that |
