The 10 best Starrcade matches ever

<p>
Starrcade is back

#3 Billy Kidman vs Juventud Guerrera vs Rey Mysterio Jr (WCW Cruiserweight Championship) – Starrcade '98

If there was one thing that WCW did better than anyone else, it was cruiserweight wrestling. This match, much like the Dean Malenko vs Ultimo Dragon match from earlier in this list, opened the show and was the longest on the card.

The cruiserweight division was at its peak in 1998 with a great mix of talents from all over the world, and this match highlighted everything that made it special. It maintained a fast pace throughout and featured a number of the high spots that had become a hallmark of the division.

Possibly the most impressive thing about this match, though, was that it never fell into the trap that a lot of triple threat matches do, where one wrestler is always out of the action. This match used the stipulation perfectly to add excitement and drama to the match.
