Ok... so my King of the Ring one isn't doing too well... regardless I'm going to continue with this. Here is, in my opinion, the top ten In Your House matches of all time.

10. Cage Match: Bret Hart vs. Diesel - In Your House 6

Fresh off Diesel's heel run and Bret Hart's title victory over Diesel, this is the cage match that ended with Undertaker pulling Diesel under the ring allowing Bret to snag a victory.

9. Bret Hart vs. Jean Pierre-LaFitte - In Your House 3

1995 was a terrible year for Bret thanks to Shawn, Nash and the rest of the Kliq as Bret was put into meaningless feuds with the likes of Jerry Lawler and Isaac Yankem in order to protect the Kliq's heat. Regardless, Bret was a professional and made the most of it and carried this match pretty well.

8. Caribbean Strap Match: Steve Austin vs. Savio Vega - In Your House: Beware of Dog 2

An underappreciated classic as Austin, in a partial shoot interview, revealed he lost this match on purpose to rid himself of Dibiase and The Ringmaster gimmick. It took the WWF a long time to realize that alligning someone with Dibiase almost always ended up with diminished heat for that person. hmm.. I wonder how Austin faired without Dibiase.

7. Taka Michinoku vs. The Great Sasuke - In Your House: Canadian Stampede

A good, if not brief, match that showcased a style the WWF was not used to seeing at the time. The weird thing about all of this was the fact that Sasuke was supposed to get the rub as Light Heavyweight Champion and Taka was supposed to be some jobber he defeated routinely. Wonder how that worked out?

6. Fatal Four-Way Match: Steve Austin vs. Bret Hart vs. The Undertaker vs. Vader - In Your House: Final Four

Things with the WWF were getting really interesting as the Hart-Austin feud continued to escelate. This was fresh off Austin's win at the Royal Rumble in which his elimination went unnoticed. A decent brawl and an entertaining match. Rumor has it Austin was supposed to win this match and then job to Sid the next night, but Austin ******** his knee up so bad that the ending had to be rebooked and Bret jobbed to Sid. Huh.

5. Shawn Michaels vs. Diesel - In Your House: Good Friends, Better Enemies

Kevin Nash's swan song and a hellacious brawl. Nash was leaving for the WCW and opted to go out putting another Kliq member up in a wild brawl. Shawn didn't win this match, he SURVIVED it.

4. Hell in a Cell Match: Shawn Michaels vs. The Undertaker - In Your House: Badd Blood

The first Hell in a Cell match. Shawn's heel turn. The birth of DX. It was all here as Shawn ended 1997 pissing off the Undertaker which led to this match. Long story short: Shawn swung at Bret with a chair, hit Undertaker, had a brawl with him at the previous PPV that went unfinished, this match was signed. Oh yeah, this also marked the debut of a certain "big red machine."

3. Bret Hart, Owen Hart, The British Bulldog, Jim Neidhart & Brian Pillman vs. Steve Austin, The Legion of Doom, Goldust & Ken Shamrock - In Your House: Canadian Stampede

CRAZY brawl and intense heat for the match... Canada's a weird place. The Hart Foundation were treated as hereos even when they cheated in this match and Austin was literally booed everytime he moved. A very intense and entertaining match.

2. Shawn Michaels vs. Jeff Jarrett - In Your House 2

Say what you want about Jarrett but this match was great as Shawn's usual flamboyant style and Jarrett's old school southern heel psychology seemed to mesh pretty well here. Of course this was 1995 so Shawn was ungodly over here.

1. Shawn Michaels vs. Mankind - In Your House: Mind Games

A testament to not only how crazy Mick could be but also how well he could actually wrestle. It's always funny to watch Mick get so into character here knowing what a goof he turned out to be. Easily Mick's best match ever and one of Shawn's as well.
