Over the years, the general critical consensus for the best match of under ten minutes in length is Rey Mysterio vs. Kurt Angle from Summerslam 2002. Outside of WrestleManias X and XXX, respectively, one could make a case that it was also the best curtain jerker in wrestling PPV history. One thing is for certain, no matter where it ranks in each of those categories, Mysterio vs. Angle was phenomenal. In earlier entries, a specific, 2002-period style was mentioned that emphasized pace and false finishes galore packed within a time frame that would have once told just a third to a half of a similar story on the wrestling canvas. Perhaps no match better exemplified that style than Angle vs. Mysterio. If you do not pay attention to the clock during their match, you may not notice that, from start to finish, it lasts only a shade over 9-minutes. It felt longer because so much happened from bell-to-bell. That was an immense accomplishment. To add another flattering comment, they set such a wonderful tone for Summerslam 02 that the rest of the roster was forced to rise to or exceed their level, creating for what is highly regarded as one of the finest PPVs in wrestling lore.
