22. Raven vs. Benoit (February '98)
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i8pBfkq7B9k WCW was amazing because the company broadcast an incredible amount of television per week featuring incredibly motivated wrestlers willing to do just about anything to get over. Enter this random match from WCW Thunder between Raven and Chris Benoit. As a series of matches, anything involving any combination of Benoit, Raven and DDP could make a list of "consistently solid, yet different matches between a group of wrestlers." However, just watch what the incredibly over midcard tandem of Raven and Chris Benoit do here in six minutes. It's pretty fantastic and a fine example of how excellence could just spring up in WCW at any given moment.
