14. Bret Hart vs. Chris Benoit (October '99)
http://www.dailymotion.com/video/xz8d1l_17-99-10-04-bret-hart-vs-chris-benoit-owen-hart-tribute-match-nitro_sport Owen Hart tragically died at the Kemper Arena in Kansas City, Missouri on May 23, 1999. When WCW Monday Nitro visited the venue on October 4, 1999, Owen's brother Bret wrestled Hart Dungeon trainee and Owen Hart favorite Chris Benoit in a match that wasn't so much a technical wrestling spectacle (which it is) as much as it was the absolute right thing to do. Sometimes wrestling and wrestlers need a space to exhale and keep it moving. This is the best of those times.
