1997 is one of the biggest & best years in the history of our sport... I love everything about it!!
WWF,WCW,ECW all on top of their game and it really was a game changing year... but what is the match of the year for you guys?
You can name 5,10,15 if you can't name only one and you can do it from any company...
I'm going with Austin vs Bret from WM13, absolutely classic stuff and one of the best matches ever.
Taker vs HBK HIAC
Taker vs Bret SummerSlam & One Night Only
Royal Rumble match
Cactus vs HHH RAW
Austin/HBK vs Owen/Bulldog
Austin vs HBK KOTR
Taker vs Sid WM13
Hart Foundation vs USA
Owen vs Bulldog RAW
All bangers right there.

Austin vs Bret for me. Good GOD what a match. " AUSTIN WENT WAY DOWN SOUTH OF SASKATOON WITH THAT ONE"
#2 is HBK vs Taker HIAC.
#3 is Bret vs Undertaker @sslam 97. Patterson outdone himself with the creative on this matches finish.
HBK/Austin vs Bulldog/Owen on raw was another belter as well as HBK vs Mankind on Raw.

Steve Austin vs Bret Hart, this is one of the greatest matches of all time and it still holds up incredibly well to this day. The rematch they had the following month at In Your House was also great.
Bret Hart vs Undertaker, both their match at SummerSlam and One Night Only are fantastic
The first Hell in a Cell was crazy, I had never seen anything like it and even now it is one of the best Hell in a Cell matches of all time.
I also really like Owen Hart vs British Bulldog for the European Title, Rock vs Austin from DX, HBK vs Bulldog from One Night Only.

No one pulled of being funny and a badass at the same time like Stone Cold! |

Owen vs Bulldog slipped my mind but is a match that belongs in the conversation.
Canadian Stampede 10 man is another great one.

Austin/Bret at WM13 wins it for me. Just a fantastic match and feud.
After that, these were good as well:
HBK/Taker - IYH: Badd Blood (Hell in the Cell)
Bret/Taker - One Night Only
Bret/Taker - Summer Slam 1997
HBK/Austin - KOTR 1997
Macho/DDP - All three singles PPV matches
Owen/Bulldog - European Title Match
Mysterio/Guerrero - Halloween Havoc 1997

Can't Deny Austin/Bret at WM13 - one of the greatest matches ever, possible Match of the 90s
What we should ask is for Second Place
And for my taste, thats HBK/Taker Badd Blood
