Now that I have completed all 31 original episodes of SNME, I’ve compiled a Top 20 list to commemorate the best of the show. These matches are based on workrate versus memorable moments on the show, so the Hogan/Orndorff cage match won’t be included because I feel its pretty overrated outside of the controversial “both guys hit the floor at the EXACT same time” business.

20. WWF Tag Team Champions The British Bulldogs vs. Iron Sheik & Nikolai Volkoff – 2/3 Falls (SNME #6 – May 1986) ** 3/4
19. Randy Savage vs. Brutus Beefcake (SNME #22 – July 1989) ** 3/4
18. Ted DiBiase vs. The Blue Blazer (SNME #20 – March 1989) ***
17. 20-Man Battle Royal (SNME #29 – April 1991) ***
16. Ricky Steamboat vs. Jake Roberts (SNME #7 – October 1986) ***
