Trying to put together a list. My top tier contenders are Necro-Joe, DiBiase-Duggan, Lawler-Dundee, Hansen-Andre, and Rey-Eddie Halloween Havoc.

The Flair/Funk matches are the big ones.

100% Flair/Funk but also both Lawler Funk matches. Other great ones are Black Terry/Wotan, Punk/Eddie, almost all the big Puerto Rico stuff like Invader 3/Starr scaffold & Invader 1/Al Perez, Barnett/Moxley and Goldberg/DDP. Bull Curry vs Johnny Valentine is probably the earliest sub-20 min match that I consider an all timer.

The Empty Arena match is one of the most unique wrestling matches ever.

One of the most perfect representations of what professional wrestling is as well.

It’s easier to name sub 20 matches than over 25 minute matches.

There's a lot of great shoot examples, some notable ones include Funaki/Nakano, Sakuraba/Kanehara 97, Han/Tamura 96, basically every Han/Kohsaka match, Kohsaka/Tamura 99, and Otsuka/Matsunaga. Some other ones that come to mind are Nagata/Murakami 02, Park/Rush 16, and Park/Wagner Jr Lucha Azteca 13.

Technically the Dump vs Chigusa matches too but with the pre-match post match stuff I dunno what to do

I don’t like taking match length into consideration since I don’t consider a match bell-to-bell rather curtain-to-curtain.

I wanted to see people’s immediate reactions though, and I think I got them!
