Had more matches on my final list than I thought he would. Really great wrestler who excelled on the big stage and really made just about anyone who he worked with. I want to go back and watch his first round of matches with Flair, before it was for the NWA title.

What is everyone's favorite Steamboat match against anyone other than Flair? The Rude Iron Man? A Savage match? Final Conflict?

I guess Final Conflict. I haven't watched it in forever. The Rude Iron Man match is another classic, a match that sticks with you. I like a number of the Savage matches a lot. WarGames 92 is another to consider.

Likely the Rude ironman match for me as well. Although there are a few multi-man matches that are pretty close (2/92 8-man tag from Saturday Night; 5/92 6-man with Dustin and Nikita v Arn, Eaton and Zbyszko; Wargames '92). I haven't watched the Final Conflict in over ten years but I imagine that'll still be somewhere around the top.
I actually soured a bit on the Flair series when I last watched them about eight years ago. Well, I soured on Wrestlewar, and around that time I got super burned out on Flair in general, so I never even bothered rewatching the Clash match. Then a couple months ago I watched Chi-Town again and it was terrific so maybe I've circled back around. Ten years ago the Clash match might've been my #1 for this. I'd be surprised if I still like it that much when I watch it again for next year, but I'm not too worried about it not holding up anymore. I've kind of hopped back on the Flair Train over the last six months or so but this is Steamboat's thread and I guess basically what I'm saying is a few of those Flair matches will make my list.
