Teamwork (Austin Aries and Bryan Danielson / Daniel Bryan) vs. Motor City Machine Guns (Alex Shelley and Chris Sabin), from ROH Fueling the Fire

2008 Ring of Honor was a magical time in which they would put on marquee matches featuring wrestlers they couldn't legally show on PPV and sort of get away with it. All four men "get" the story of the match, with one side consisting of dominant world champions who're gradually improving as a tag team and the other being a tag team who flounder when doing anything besides tag teaming, and the drama comes from determining which has greater merit. In that sense, I kind of like the non-commital ending: a great work asks questions, a bad work answers them.
