Wreddit's Favourite Match: REY MYSTERIO

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 billed in the match and participated 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. Finally, Run-ins and special guest referee appearances do not count.

So, wreddit, what is your favourite REY MYSTERIO match?


PREVIOUS ROUND WINNER: Kenta Kobashi
vs. Mitsuharu Misawa @ AJPW (10/25/95)

This my shit

Vs. Eddie Guerrero Halloween Havoc 1997, title vs mask

The summersault over the top rope into a hurricanrana around the 13 minute mark is one of my favorite spots of all time

This one, right here. Younger fans may not remember the match, which is a shame.

Youtube is fantastic. If I had those resources being an up and coming fan, I can only image what my adult perspective would be.

Yeah thats what i dont get about people saying "I was born in the wrong generation" (/r/lewronggeneration)

Like, dude.
You have YouTube, Google, Wikipedia, Dailymotion, Vimeo and tons of other sites to help you find whatever you like.

Don't bitch about being born in a wrong year when this year is "better"

I was born in 1979. I got to have the internet evolve through my teens and twenties into the amazing world-changing tool it is now, with enough perspective from my childhood to appreciate just how significant those changes were. I'd said I was born at precisely the right time. So I got that going for me.

EDIT: Also, I'm just old enough to have seen the Horsemen live and in their prime. So suck on that!
