1999 was one of the biggest years in wrestling history... damn it was a crazy year!! Some good times man... but what is the match of the year for you guys?
You can include it for WWF,WCW,ECW and even do a top 5,10,15 if you can't decide the number one match of year...
I'm going with Austin vs Rock WM15 since its one of my all time favs.
Austin vs Rock Backlash
Rock vs Mankind I Quit
Austin vs HHH No Mercy
Austin vs Taker RAW WWF Title
WWF Title 6 pack challenge
Austin vs Taker First Blood
Austin vs HHH vs Mankind
Bret vs Benoit Nitro 99
Edge and Christian vs Hardyz Ladder match
All of those were great bangers.

The two that stick out for me in 1999 are Rock vs Austin at Backlash, that match is so much better than the one they had the month before at WrestleMania in my opinion, although I still enjoyed their WrrestleMania XV match. Also that tag team ladder match at No Mercy was like nothing I had seen before in the WWF. I hate to bring his name up, but Bret Hart vs Chris Benoit was amazing, probably the last great match I was invested in at WCW.
Rock vs Mankind at the Royal Rumble is one of the most uncomfortable matches to watch! I remember watching it at the time with my dad who just casually watched wrestling and he felt it was too much. Watching Beyond the Mat and reading Mick Foley's book make this even more uncomfortable to watch.

Thats a great list OP. My own personal favorite is Austin vs Rock @ Backlash. Love the WM15 match too but this beats it out.

The Rock Vs Mankind Royal Rumble
The Rock Vs Austin Backlash
The Rock Vs HHH Steel Cage Raw
Austin Vs Undertaker Vs HHH No Mercy UK
Austin Vs HHH Vs Mankind Summerslam
HHH Vs Vince Armageddon
I also loved the Hardcore matches from that year that ended up backstage.

Honestly, for WWF there isn't many for 1999.
Austin vs. Rock - Backlash
Triple H vs. Rock - Fully Loaded
Test vs Shane McMahon - SummerSlam
Edge & Christian vs. Hardys - No Mercy
Chris Jericho vs. Chyna - Survivor Series
Triple H vs. Mr. McMahon - Armageddon

Austin vs Rock at Backlash was an all time classic and so was Bret vs Benoit. |
