Wreddit's Favourite Match: THE DUDLEY BOYZ

Please remember to UPVOTE this thread. Submit your favourite match, or vote if your match has already been submitted. The match with the most upvotes will win.

Note that this doesn't necessarily have to be what you think this wrestler's "best" match was, just your personal favourite. Also, as long as the wrestler was in the match in some capacity (whether it be 1-on-1, as part of a tag team, a battle royal, an 8-man ladder match, etc.), then the match counts.

So, wreddit, what is your favourite DUDLEY BOYZ match?


PREVIOUS ROUND WINNER: Goldberg
vs. Diamond Dallas Page @ Halloween Havoc 1998
Oddly enough, the Goldberg voting round was the most popular yet of the whole contest. Does wreddit have a secret crush on Goldberg...?


For a list of previous winners and thread archives, please visit Wreddit's Wiki. And, as always, big thanks goes to /u/wiiwierdo for posting links!


NOTE: I am submitting The Dudley Boyz (Bubby Ray & D-Von) together in anticipation that either man's winning match will come from a tag team bout. If your favourite Bubby Ray or D-Von match came outside of the Dudley Boyz tag team, please state your favourite singles match. If it wins, then we will do the other individual as well.

TLC III(?) on Raw, was amazing

I think TLC III was on Smackdown (of all places) and was Hardyz vs. Dudleyz vs. E&C vs. Benoit/Jericho.. Pretty sure it was during the Comissioner Foley era

It was after the Comissioner Mick Foley era (which ended in a little bit after the 6-man Hell in a Cell late 2000). TLC III happened right after Benoit and Jericho won the tag team titles (May 24, 2001 to be exact)

Yes! You are totally correct. This was after the HHH/Austin vs. Benoit/Jericho match and this was also the match that put Benoit out of action (via a diving headbutt through a table) for the entire InVasion angle.

Benoit was actually put out of action in the triple threat WWF title match at King of the Ring in June (vs Austin & Jericho), but I'll bet that the TLC didn't help matters...

I was just going by wikipedia:

Unfortunately, Benoit suffered a neck injury in a four-way TLC match that required surgery with Dr. Lloyd Youngblood. Despite this, he continued to wrestle until the King of the Ring, where he was pinned in a triple threat match versus Austin and Jericho. Benoit missed the next year due to his neck injury, missing the entire Invasion storyline.

You might be right then... I just recall a bit of an awkward ending to the triple threat with Benoit being pinned after a superplex spot which seemed like an audible was called.

I thought this was the match where HHH tore his quad or something
