#4 Gilbert/Steiner v Varsity Club (1989)

I am sure you knew this was coming next and you are a first-ballot pick in the Wrestling Fan Hall of Fame.

I must admit, I didn’t expect these four guys to make the list, but the history books show that Eddie Gilbert and Rick Steiner defeated Varsity Club (Kevin Sullivan and Dan Spivey) in the main event of WrestleWar 1989: Music City Showdown.

The show also featured Ric Flair v Ricky Steamboat for the World Heavyweight Championship, but that went on seventh out of the nine matches.
