7. Eddie Guerrero Vs. Rey Mysterio - Smackdown September 9, 2005
http://www.dailymotion.com/video/x1a49fr_wwe-smackdown-09-09-05-rey-mysterio-vs-eddie-guerrero-steel-cage-match_sport When you think about Guerrero and Mysterio you don't think of them as the kind of wrestlers that have a lot of steel cage matches. They're lucha libre legends that are used to wrestling more of a fast paced style. However, their rivalry was so hot in 2005 that they had to settle it once and for all inside of a steel cage. It's a historic match because it was the first time that Guerrero beat Mysterio. When they were in WCW, Mysterio always win (check out their classic at Halloween Havoc 1997). During their WWE feud throughout 2005, Guerrero couldn't beat him. It was this match where Guerrero finally got his win. Eddie had another cage match with JBL a year earlier where he did a Frog Splash off the cage in a spot that a lot of people remember, but this one is clearly the better match. Sadly, Eddie passed away a couple of months after this match took place. It's one of the last great matches of his life.
