3. Rey Mysterio Jr. vs. Eddie Guerrero (C)
The Time: October 26, 1997 - WCW Halloween Havoc
The Title: WCW World Cruiserweight Championship
The contenders: Eddie Guerrero and Rey Mysterio Jr
During WCW's run of dominance during the Monday Night War with WWE, one of the highlights of their programming was the Cruiserweight division.
Developed and booked by cruiserweight legend Dean Malenko, it was WCW's most competitive and dazzling subset. Featuring Lucha Libre stars as the backbone of the roster, it's not surprising that two Latino sensations wound up putting on arguably the best match the division ever had.
The build up to their match was just as phenomenal, with Eddie Guerrero breaking a cardinal Lucha Libre rule and unmasking Rey Mysterio. During the match Guerrero would repeatedly try to take off Rey's Mask, which was technically against the rules as it was a mask vs. title bout. Highlights include Misterio delivering a perfect dragon-rana and Eddie utilizing every dirty trick in the book to hang on to his belt.
