Great list just curious why you don't give the No Mercy match with Brock 5 stars, I'd probably rate that above the HHH mania match but probably not the Michaels matches.

Were Michaels and Taker eachothers best opponents? The two of them always delivered against each other pre-injury Shawn wouldn't (well more likely couldn't) pull any of his shit against Taker which probably helped. But those two meshed so well together.

Thanks for approving of my list. Going by memory the No Mercy 2002 'Taker vs. Brock Hell in a Cell is a five star match, I wanted to watch it again to be sure.

Undertaker and Shawn Michaels were defintely each other's best opponents. I liked the two other high profile 'Taker/HBK matches at In Your House 17: Ground Zero and Royal Rumble 1998. There was also the threatened behind the scenes one at WrestleMania XIV ; ).

Undertaker and Shawn had great chemistry. The others I can say the same about: Kenta Kobashi vs. Mitsuharu Misawa, Hiroshi Tanahashi vs. Kazuchika Okada, Ric Flair vs. Ricky Steamboat, Samoa Joe vs. CM Punk, Bret Hart vs. Steve Austin and Bret Hart vs. Owen Hart.

You've got the Ribera jacket and permed mullet, but it needs the Zubaz and a fanny pack for the Pro Wrestler Grand Slam.
