Overrated: HBK/Bret from WrestleMania 12. It's just not a style of wrestling that I find entertaining.
Underrated: Rock/Austin at WrestleMania XIX. In my opinion it is the best WrestleMania match ever, only just beating out Jericho/HBK from earlier in the night.
Cena/Hunter from WrestleMania 22. Since most are putting it in their overrated list, I don't see why I couldn't put it in my underrated list. Being there live was a great experience, and even watching on DVD was great.

I love all these kids calling all the classics Overrated and the new stuff underrated LOL I certainly hope you're not grouping me in as one of the "Kids." I've seen the WM12 Iron Man match, and was incredibly bored by it, as I am with all Iron Man matches. If you know the match HAS to last an hour, and whoever gets the most falls wins, then nothing of any importance is going to happen in the first 50-55 minutes, and anything that does can easily be overturned in the last 5. You'd think 2 men who legitimately hated each other could've made it look more convincing. And, of course, it doesn't help that 11 years later, HBK proved he could go for an hour and keep it interesting...with John Freaking Cena, of all people. In, of all things, a non-title one-fall match.

Have to agree with HBK/Bret being overrated. Everyone knows they're great wrestlers... we don't need, nor will we ever need an hour long match to prove it. Same goes for any other people they decide to throw into one of those things.

I don't know that I can choose the most overrated matches. A lot of people have said the Iron Man match, but I loved that match, I can't agree with that. I also can't believe someone said Savage vs. Steamboat. That match was unbelievable. And Brock vs. Angle. I think everyone would be happy to have a main event of that caliber at WM 24. I guess I'll go with Cena vs. Triple H. I was there; it wasn't that great. I mean, it was great in comparison with a lot of Cena's previous matches, but it wasn't as good as a lot of people said.
As for underrated, I know I'm the only person who's going to say Booker T vs. Triple H at WM 19. For some reason, I really liked that match, other than the finish. Also, Undertaker vs. Triple H at WM 17 was amazing but is rarely talked about. There are a lot of solid matches- Rock/Austin at WM 19, Benoit/MVP at WM 23, Bret Hart/Piper at WM 8, all those are great too (although I'm not sure the last one is "underrated" per say).

Underrated: Bret Hart vs. Stone Cold (WM13) That match is NOT underrated, it gets praise from everyone, it also has it own figure set, I think it rated right where it should be. This is why I hate topics like this, people don't know what underrated and overrated means.

you newbs have no idea what youre talking about
hogan/rock was not overrated because it is not remembered for the wrestling, it is remembered for the clash of the two generations of number 1 superstar. regardless of mechanics, BOTH men electrified the crowd with their every expression, gesture, and move. the ending was a CLASSIC. Incredible psychology. hogan/warrior was not overrated because this was the clash between the two irresistible forces. the warrior had ridiculous momentum on the way in, and hogan was hogan. this was the first time any wrestler was more popular than hogan. regardless of what you say, the match was awesome. excellent booking , amazing storytelling, top notch psychology. hogan/andre was not overrated because andre was undefeated storyline-wise for 15 years, and the only visible threat to hogan at the time, even easily eliminating him from a battle royal months earlier. it was the MOST IMPORTANT MATCH OF THE TIME. again, excellent booking, excellent psychology, excellent performance by both men. the wrestlemania 4 match, on the other hand, while still exciting, was quite a bit less important.
god, you retards dont understand that there is more to a good wrestling match than the moves, quite a bit more. the action is only part of it. of course, you are all brainwashed by the cookie cutter wwe mold of today, so you wouldnt know good psychology if it bit you on the ass. there are no matches like the above i mentioned before, because you are all so simple minded that you all just watch, you dont think.
Angle vs Brock and Angle vs Michaels were not overrated because they had BOTH!!!!! these are some of the GREATEST MATCHES OF ALL TIME!!!!! ALL OF THESE!!!!
most of these matches on the list were not overrated, but a large reason for that is psychology. hogan andre would NOT HAVE BEEN NEARLY AS GOOD if hogan was tossing andre around the entire match like cena and batista do to guys like khali and big daddy v. NOBODY should be chokeslamming BDV, or FUing khali. these matches arent the problem, YOU are!
btw: Underrated matches include Jake Roberts vs Honky Tonk Man, JYD vs Harley Race
