Chris Hero / Kassius Ohno vs. Eddie Kingston (Loser Leaves Town and CZW), from Combat Zone Wrestling Out With the Old, In With the New

This sort of emotion-fueled encounter is difficult to grade without knowing the specifics of the feud; I imagine this is how casual fans feel when their fanboy buddy talks them into watching a WrestleMania main event. I’m unable to comment on if any of this drama contained callbacks to past encounters, but it’s not hard to pick up on the story here, that they hate each other so much that they would rather hit each other harder than most people could manage in a real fight than try to win the match. Way too damn long, but great stuff regardless.
