Hello I am currently thinking about matches i probably wont get to see that i think would change my life. One of them is the Beast God Okada vs the Trickster God Kikutaro. I think this would be on a different level, Okada has shown that he is quite strange at heart and very funny and Kikutaro is the greatest wrestler living.

The other one is Kota Ibushi vs WALTER. I think this could be the best big vs small match. WALTER beats on people in a very violent satisfying way and Ibushi would make that look like hes being liquefied.

Please post about your matches that cant happen eg Steve Austin vs Lou Thesz (Battle of the Press) or could happen but probably wont e.g Barron Corbin vs Jimmy Lloyd (Battle of the Ugly)

Nonsense. I have not yet begun to defile myself.

CM Punk vs Steve Austin kind of wrote itself (and the one-off promo they did where Punk tried to goad Austin out of retirement was amazing)

Austin is very good. Kinda want to see Austin vs Perfect Canadian Lance Storm. Mostly Austin tearing him up in promos.

Strong chance we get to see Moxley vs Okada in our lifetime, that'd be really interesting.

Velveteen Dream v. Tetsuya Naito
Bray "The Fiend" Wyatt v. Jimmy Havoc
Aleister Black v. Shinsuke Nakamura
Tomohiro Ishii v. Rusev
Tessa Blanchard v. Io Shirai
PAC v. Will Ospreay

forgive me if one or more have already happened, iirc none have though I feel the last one might have.

Kensuke Sasaki should have defected to AJPW in 95 or 96, because Kobashi/Sasaki with both of them in their physical prime would have loving ruled

Corgis love bread. And Puro


Hollywood Stalker Ichikawa vs Toru Yano. The battle of the Weakest Wrestler In The World and the Sublime Master Thief would be one for the ages. Maybe you can through Kikutaro & Kuishinbo Kamen in there too for a 4 way.

For more serious wrestling, I'd still like to see Samoa Joe vs Tomohiro Ishii, my favourite wrestler of the 00s and my favourite wrestler of today. But if I could borrow Venomous's time machine to actually make it 2006 Joe vs 2018 Ishii that'd be top. But settling for stuff that could happen today I think it'd be great.

Bryan Danielson vs Zack Sabre Jr has happened before but it's been a decade and ZSJ is a much better wrestler today than he was then so I'd like to see them lock horns before Bryan's brains are fully liquefied. Honestly though, Danielson has been off the indies since 2010 & last toured Japan in 2009, this entire post could just be awesome American Dragon matches because dude is the best wrestler of his generation. Danielson vs Miyahara, Danielson vs Nakajima, Danielson vs Ben-K, Danielson vs Kiyomiya, Danielson vs Mochizuki, Danielson vs Okada, Danielson vs PAC, Danielson vs Kenoh, Danielson vs KZY, just give me Bryan Danielson. But alas.

Because of Austin's injury we never got the Stone Cold/Goldberg match that me and every other 13 year old speculated about during the Monday Night Wars

but my actual dream match is Maki Itoh vs Chuck Taylor so we can see who can yell better.

Angle vs Danielson (came within a hair of happening in PWG, then TNA stepped in)
Rey Mysterio Jr. vs Cesaro (with Rey in his prime, and healthy-ish)
Nick Bockwinkel vs Jon Moxley (snob vs slob, street smarts vs educated character, brawler vs technical wizard)
Shinya Hashimoto vs Samoa Joe (lumpy fellas beating the poo poo out of each other)
Harley Race vs Minoru Suzuki (terrifying man vs terrifying man)
Chris Hero vs Minoru Suzuki (two stiff motherfuckers light each other up)
Steve Corino vs Larry Sweeney (worth it just for the promos in the leadup)
Raven vs Jake Roberts (DDT VS DDT, master vs student, mind games abound)
Young Bucks (w/Larry Sweeney, because I loving said so) vs The Revival (w/Jim Cornette)
Luke Harper vs Test (Agile big dudes with great big boots)
Survival Match: The Elite (The Young Bucks, Kenny Omega, Adam Page and Cody Rhodes) vs D-Generation X (HHH, The New Age Outlaws, X-Pac, and HBK)
Ishii vs Regal (lumpy tough dudes)
Cena vs Tanahashi (Ace vs Ace)
Okada vs Danielson (Prodigy vs Prodigy)

Always thought it was a shame that Dean Ambrose vs Foley never happened a few years back, but a Modern day Jon Moxley vs 90s Mick Foley would have been the stuff of legends.

Would love to see Cesaro cut loose against Ishii, Okada or Ospreay. Hell there are probably 30 guys currently locked up in WWE you'd want to face against those three.

Everyone always talks about Cena vs Tanahashi, but I reckon Tanahashi vs Rock (circa 2001) would be even better.

AAA Eddy Guerrero and Art Barr vs Rush and La Sombre in Arena Mexico would have nuclear heat.

Edit: Stan Hansen vs Tomhiro Ishii in a hoss off would also be an amazing match

I'm gonna try to narrow it to 5 dream matches I wish I could bend time and space to see, and since these are dream matches i'm going to ignore stylistic differences from time periods...

Okada (during his incredible title run before he lost to Omega) vs. Hulk Hogan (At the peak of his popularity in the 80s)
Cactus Jack (Year 2000) vs. John Moxley (current)
Daniel Bryan (current) vs. Bryan Danielson (2006)
John Cena (2012) vs Steve Austin (1996)
Will Ospreay (current) vs Rey Mysterio (1996)

Dolph Ziggler vs Kota Ibushi. Both are told that the other guy is going to be big in the company and they are to make him look as devastating as possible on offense.

i've never dreamt of a match or wished one would happen, except for when i wanted a wrestler to win a feud. if two forces have no beef i couldn't care less if they ever meet eachother once in their lives. if they can't fight for something important then get the gently caress out of my life forever

Of the wrestlers who are currently active(can wrestle now) this is easily the match that I'd want to see the most.
