WrestleTalk's Best Wrestling Matches 2024 (So Far)

[@patanderson4666]

Wrestlemania night 2 was the first time my girlfriend has ever watched wrestling. She loved the show. She really loved Bayley vs Iyo and was so invested in Cody vs Roman. She didn't know any of these people before that night. She popped when Cody won and teared up. To me that makes it the match of the year and show of the year.

[@darbytheturtle]

I can only imagine how you felt witnessing all that unfold, the person you consider the one enjoying and engaging in something you feel so passionately about must have felt pretty good

[@patanderson4666]

@@darbytheturtle it was pretty awesome. I loved seeing her reaction and enjoying something I have loved since I was a kid. She said she wants us to go see Mania live in Vegas. Because she knows I love Vegas and wrestling. Needless to say she is pretty great.

Oba vs Dijak vs Briggs arguably best match that weekend

I saw Ospreay v Danielson live and it is one of the best things I have ever seen in my life.

[@vincentvalen72]

I don’t think you could name a better retirement match than Sting’s. Just can’t imagine the feels of coming out with your sons decked out in your previous styles throughout the decades.

[@TheMadmage]

Flair vs Michaels at mania. It didn't last but at the time it was the best and still holds up to this day.

[@vincentvalen72]

[@oathkeeper65]

I was at Revolution watching it live. And once sting’s son came out, he everyone was on their feet and we didn’t sit down until we got in our cars to leave. It was wild. A perfect send off a legend, no. A perfect send off for an Icon. Doing what sting does. Yeah the Darby spot was a bit much, but it also meant Sting got to go out on his own and on top. As he should.

11:50 Bayley v Iyo at WM40 is my favourite match from this year! I've rewatched it a bunch, so glad it made the cut

Tempest nailed it. AEW put together Oscar award winners, and WWE make Marvel movies. Your personal taste will dictate which you like more and it is very possible to enjoy both. But not everything is for everyone

[@KaraboRapitse-uo5vs]

I disagree with this statement

[@cheddarssalad1230]

As far as matches in and of themselves. For builds/feuds/stories the opposite could be argued. That’s what is great about AEW being on the scene. The fans have a choice. Personally, I find WWE storytelling to be a lot of wheel spinning. Like, yes, the rivalry lasted 3 months but it could have been 1 and nothing would have been lost. Drew and Punk have been feuding the whole year but only 4 or 5 things have actually happened. Bad example, Punk is hurt but still.

[@michaelrivera8360]

I disagree because for that comparison to apply was to say WWE was just the spectacle and that's it.The reality is that Roman vs Cody had way more storytelling than Osprey vs Danielson no matter how much they tried to sell it as great story.They told a great story in the ring in terms of moves but that is it.Roman vs Cody was months and years of story telling coming to an end in an epic match.

[@smallss7197]

@@michaelrivera8360 I think that's AEW flaw to an extent. They don't tell stories as good as wwe can. Like, Cody v Bloodline for the build up to wrestlemania may have been the greatest build to any match

[@FreddytheIV]

The difference between Ospreay vs. Danielson & Cody vs. Roman is simply the difference between Godzilla x Kong & Godzilla Minus One. Both good to great in their own right & up to your preferences. What a beautiful time in wrestling where we can have matches like these that are great for their own reasons.

[@michaelrivera8360]

That is not a correct statement Godzilla X Kong had just spectacle and no story telling.Roman vs Cody had story telling with spectacle.When you look at it Danielson vs Osprey would be Godzilla X Kong because it was just great action but no real feud beyond"who is the best wrestler"

[@inflatablecarnival3172]

Since this video dropped we got : Osprey / Swerve and Osprey / Garcia. What a roll this guy is on.

[@PlayfulTraining]

Great list! We're spoiled to have such great wrestling on a regular basis! Imagine the 1995 list (at least WWE & WCW)!

Storytelling in wrestleing is a real important part of it, however I like it to be done in the ring, if cinema wrestleing is your thing and you want years of drama 15 min entrances and sports entertainment thats cool. But i do think its easier to watch a great in ring match.especially if youre re watching for a list

[@metalbudsgaming8371]

Thank you. Everyone thinking a 20 minute banger CAN'T POSSIBLY have story is just silly. The story is told physically through the wrestling. Some people just don't get it unless the wrestlers literally stop mid match to shout the story at eachother.

This list and particularly number 1 and 2 is exactly why WWE and AEW are vital in the landscape. I have fallen off of AEW weekly because the tv storytelling just isnt it and i hate the constant vs. WWE energy they give off but i would never deny the match quality And well Cody vs Roman speaks for itself. Great list lads and Wrestletalkers! Great list indeed.

[@armymilitaryman]

So I been watching Sting since early 90's to see him retain in his last match n how crazy the match was my one of favorite this year. The Darby spot was CRAZY but I seen Mick get blown up set on fire n thrown 20 feet twice. So it didn't bother me. I just wanted him to land on them .

[@KingNidoYT]

Appreciate that this is after June 30.

[@diabeticman2194]

For me, my MOTY… so far is Young Bucks/Sting and Darby; just loads of silly fun with a death match tone to it. Not even a long time Sting fan, but that was the perfect send off for him. That glass bump by Darby is still ingrained into my mind. Other favourites include: Ospreay/Takeshita, Roman/Cody 2, Swerve/Ospreay, Dijak/Oba/Briggs (Big meaty men slapping meat), Ospreay/Danielson (not as high for me as the other Ospreay matches, my hot take), Gunther/Sami, FTR/BCC (Revolution), Rhodes/Styles (Backlash), and Slater/Speedball (North Wrestling- it’s on KZbin, go watch it. Underrated) Honourable mentions: Perez/Grace, Anarchy in the Arena, ZSJ/Cassidy and Wolf Dogs/Axiom and Frazier (both NXT Stand and Deliver and NXT)

[@KennyOspreay]

Solid list, I think the cage match between United Empire vs Bullet Club deserves an honourable mention too

[@buckn5]

I wish there was a playlist to easily see all of these year awards.

[@matthiaskubacka2638]

I can't complain about No. 2 and No. 1 and Tempest hit the nail on the head about it.. If you like a big event with all the drama and is a total box office banger, then No. 2 is for you. If you more into actual wrestling where the story begins with the ringing bell and the story wins the price for best movie, then No. 1 is for you.. Ospreay vs Danielson for me was just incredible and I'm damn sure, by the end of this year, we will see this match, with Rhodes vs Reigns, in the Top 5..

[@thepeoplesbroker]

[@chocobosage]

Good idea to do a halfway list, as G1 and 5 Star GP season is now coming and they'll add a few matches. Although, i'm disappointed that there aren't more womens matches here,especially when Sareee and Mayu Iwatani are doing the best work right now.

[@mewr11]

They mentioned in the Best Wrestlers that it was being recorded pre-Forbidden Door. I'm totally with you on Ospreay-Swerve.

[@MrStrawberry86]

I think a great wrestling match is a combination of great in ring work but also character development and emotional investment. Also star power and how a crowd is worked. Without these things its just men jumping around and groping each other. Look at the punk v mjf fued or omega v hangman fueds a few years ago in aew. For me these have matches that reach much higher highs than the ospreay v brian match because of all the work and context leading up the a big pay off. Its about caring about the characters not the moves.

[@KEVINZARD]

Best match of the year in my opinion so far is a tie between Cody Rhodes Vs Roman Reigns and Will Ospreay vs Bryan Danielson

[@RApollos107]

31:10 Honestly that’s probably a great way to put it by Tempest. Reigns-Cody is like Oppenheimer where it’s just the perfect kind of “theater experience” movie. Ospreay-Danielson is Godzilla Minus One where everyone comes out after seeing it going “this is the greatest thing I’ve ever seen”.

[@thedoctor3528]

I prefer the analogy of aew being like a 10 minute guitar solo and wwe is a great pop song.

[@Onikage55]

I'm sorry but I'm not understanding why they keep saying "It made no sense for the Undertaker to be in the Cody match" because it absolutely did! First of all, Roman was Undertaker's last "official" Wrestlemania opponent and its where he left all his gear in the ring, signifying he was done. THEN the following night Roman had the arrogance to go "This is MY yard now" during the promo that perfectly showed he was best as a heel. Undertaker was linked to Roman, especially at Wrestlemania and understandably had some revenge that was worth getting

But if you think bayley vs iyo sky was a match of the year so far you should probably check out sareee vs maiyu iwatani for the iwgp women's champion, mayu iwatani vs syuri for the iwgp women's champion & sareee & bozilla vs giulia & utami because I thought these women's matches are just as go as bayley vs iyo sky if not better. I also expect giulia vs sareee, utami hayashishita vs iyo sky & maybe Roxanne perez vs giulia to be in the match of the year category when they happen this year.

Crazy that Osprey versus Swerve is already #2 for the year

[@HandsomeSassage]

Personally I think Gunther vs. Sami is the most overrated match of the year. The story going into it was that Chad Gable needed to teach Sami strategy, since Gunther never gives his opponent the opportunities that Sami always capitalizes on to win. But then Sami won because Gunther stopped trying to win, and gave Sami the exact opportunity that we were told Gunther never gives his opponents.
