10 WCW Wrestlers With The Most Monday Nitro Matches Ever

10. Dean Malenko - 108 Matches

I think I've said this on a number of occasions here, but Dean Malenko is my favourite professional wrestler of all time. When I was a kid I thought the guy was cool as heck, and the Texas Cloverleaf was my favourite move by a long way. The fact that he had 999 other holds up his sleeve certainly didn't lessen my adoration of the Iceman.

It is somewhat surprising to me that Dean Malenko didn't wrestle more than 108 matches on Monday Nitro, as every week seemed to include a Malenko match. His first match was a losing effort against another in-ring marvel, Eddy Guerrero, way back in October of 1995.

That card also included Lex Luger vs. Randy Savage and Ric Flair vs. Arn Anderson, but was headlined by The Nasty Boys vs. The American Males. Go figure.

Malenko wrestled on just one Nitro in 2000, coming up short in a three-way tag where he partnered Perry Saturn against Billy Kidman & Konnan and David Flair & Crowbar. When you realise that Flair & Crowbar won that match, Malenko and Saturn leaving for the WWF makes a whole lot of sense.
