The Legion of Doom vs. Demolition. Hulk Hogan vs. Ric Flair. Sting vs. Triple H.
These are the dream matches that have actually taken place, and all of them can be seen on WWE's streaming service. Unfortunately, wrestling fans are never satisfied. They always want to see one particular match between a specific set of superstars, and that will never change.
While some dream matches are sadly out of the question for a variety of reasons, there are still quite a few within the realm of possibility. These are the matches that fans cry out for, wondering when they will take place, if ever.
Here are seven matches between WWE superstars that fans want to see, and how likely they are to happen in the future.
Dream Match #1: The Undisputed Era vs. The Revival.
When the Undisputed Era first came together, fans knew that there would be tag team greatness in the stable. That's because Kyle O'Reilly has been in successful tag teams with both Bobby Fish, who he teamed with in ReDragon, and with Adam Cole in Future Shock.
Without a shadow of a doubt, the Undisputed Era have established dominance on NXT. Meanwhile, two NXT alumni have had some mixed feelings about their stay on the main roster. Dash and Dawson had, at one point, requested their released from the WWE but have decided to stay put for the time being.
What better way to put an emphasis and spotlight on tag team wrestling than by pitting two of the greatest tag team against each other? All of the participants are under WWE contract, though they do compete on different brands. This is a dream match that many fans want to see, but will it ever come to pass?
Chances of this match happening: 50-50. Both teams are heels, and bad guys don't normally feud with bad guys. It could still happen, however, if the Undisputed Era were to join the main roster.
Dream Match #2: Jeff Hardy vs. Ricochet
Call him Ricochet, Prince Puma, or the King, just don't call him disappointing. Ricochet has silenced critics who didn't think he could carry over his daredevil high flying style effectively into the WWE. He was one of the most adored wrestlers on NXT, despite not really living up to his potential on that brand.
Now that he's on the Raw brand, he's that much closer to Jeff Hardy, who works on the blue brand Smackdown Live. Fans would love to see these two men lock horns in the ring. Ricochet has stated that Jeff Hardy is one of his idols, and there's nothing like a veteran vs. young lion match. Expect the daredevil artistry to be taken to the next level if this match ever happens.
Chances of this match happening: 60-40 in favor of it. Despite the difference in brands there are many scenarios where Raw and Smackdown superstars might lock up against each other. The question is if the match will be given the television time and prestige it deserves.
Dream Match #3: Samoa Joe vs. Keith Lee
While fans love to see wrestler of all sizes, styles, and shapes, there's just something special when two of the biggest of the big men go toe to toe and struggle for dominance of the squared circle.
Just as Great Khali vs. Undertaker and Big John Studd vs. Andre the Giant did in years past, Keith Lee vs. Samoa Joe could light the wrestling world on fire. Which of these two titans would come out on top?
Long time fans of the indie scene will point out that they have faced each other before, but never in a WWE ring, and the Keith Lee that Samoa Joe would face today is a different man than the one he faced four years ago. Both men possess many of the same attributes; size, strength, surprising speed and agility, and a propensity for striking. Fans would love to see this match, but will it happen?
Chances of this match happening: 80-20 for it. Once Keith Lee leaves NXT for the main roster, this match just seems logical and inevitable.
Dream Match #4: John Cena vs. Adam Cole
John Cena went from a somewhat juvenile gimmick of being a foul mouthed wrapper to being the 'face that runs the place,' the white bread do gooder kiddie hero that never gave up, and never surrendered.
Cena was the man for his era, matching the Nature Boy Ric Flair's legendary sixteen world title reigns. Though some segments of the WWE Universe never truly embraced him, Cena remained one of the top merchandise sellers in WWE history until Roman Reigns came along. Now gravitating away from wrestling and toward a full time Hollywood career, John Cena still finds time to pop up on WWE programming now and again.
Adam Cole, a man widely praised for his technical wrestling, ironically made his debut for the insane Combat Zone Wrestling promotion. Other CZW alums include Dean Ambrose, and the action during one of their shows often involves legitimate injury to the performers.
Fortunately, Cole would join the Ring of Honor promotion, where he worked his way up the ranks from tag team champion to world champion. Cole has also been a star in the New Japan promotion as a member of Bullet Club.
These two have never faced each other, and it would be a great past vs. future bout. But could it happen?
Chances of this match happening: 80-20 against it. John Cena's forays into Hollywood have been met with increasing success, and it seems likely that by the time Adam Cole makes it to the main roster Cena will be done with wrestling for good, but never say never.
Dream Match #5: Pete Dunne vs. Triple H.
Jean Paul Levesque, better known by his ring name Triple H, has enjoyed a long and storied career. From his early days as Terra Ryzin, to his tag team with William Regal in WCW to his eventual rise to the top of WWE, he has consistently improved his game and kept his character relevant with subtle tweaks over the years.
The Cerebral Assassin has gone from villain to hero to villainous authority figure, but seems to change depending on which brand he appears on. Most recently he wrestled as a face against a heel Batista at Wrestlemania 35.
Pete Dunne, the Bruiserweight, has already enjoyed more influence and accolades than some wrestlers twice his age. Innovative, crisp, and surprisingly physical, Pete Dunne has a variety of ways to put his opponents away in the squared circle.
Many fans would love to see these two face each other. But how likely is this match to take place?
Chances of this match happening: 50-50. Pete Dunne wrestles for NXT UK, which is under Triple H's purview, so they run in the same circles. However, there would have to be a compelling story line reason for the two of them to face off, and that doesn't seem likely at the present time.
Dream Match #6: WALTER vs. Brock Lesnar.
Brock Lesnar has become a household name all over the world due to both his wildly successful professional wrestling career and his time spent as UFC Heavyweight champion.
The Beast Incarnate remains a controversial figure in sports entertainment due to his perpetual part-time status. Much of his time spent as the WWE Universal champion was spent at home because Lesnar rarely made television appearances. Some fans resented this about him, but no one could deny that his name still grabs a ton of attention.
Walter has worked his way up the independent circuit to make his debut with the WWE as part of the NXT UK brand. Recently he shocked the world by defeating Pete Dunne and ending Dunne's years-long reign as NXT UK champion.
The prospect of these two colossi colliding in the squared circle is an exciting one, but will it ever come to pass?
Chances of the match happening: 90-10 against. First Brock Lesnar would have to return to WWE, which seems possible but nothing is certain yet. Then Walter would have to be elevated to one of the 'main' brands because Lesnar likely wouldn't be on NXT UK. It's an interesting prospect, but fans should brace for the disappointment of the match never materializing.
Dream Match #7: Abyss vs. Undertaker
Mark Calloway underwent a long series of gimmick changes during his storied career. But whether he wrestled under a mask as Texas Red, or in fatigues as Commander USA, or in plain black tights as Mean Mark Callous, nothing seemed to stick.
Then one day Vince McMahon called an out of work Calloway and asked him 'Hello, is this the Undertaker?' Calloway replied "Hell yeah, I'm the Undertaker."
And thus one of the most iconic performers of all time was truly born. As Undertaker, Calloway has racked up a storied career that would be the envy of almost anyone.
Chris Park also underwent a number of gimmicks before hitting upon his most celebrated character, Abyss. Seen by many as a blend of Mankind and the Undertaker, Abyss developed a reputation for mayhem and violence all over the globe, but has been most associated with TNA/Impact wrestling.
Fans have clamored for this match for many years, but will it ever happen?
Chances of the match happening: 80-20 against. Chris Park works for WWE, but as a producer backstage. He has officially retired from wrestling. Undertaker is still under a legends contract and is rumored to wrestle once again in an upcoming Saudi Arabia show, but it probably won't be against Abyss. This match just might not ever come together.
