Looking back, 2002 probably has the most iconic matches in WWE History in a calendar year.

[Sghost597]

Royal Rumble-
Flair vs. Vince
Royal Royal Match ( Probably still top 5 in my book)
Honorable Mention: Rock vs. Jericho

No Way Out:
Nothing to be honest.
A lot of rehash.

WrestleMania:
Undertaker vs. Flair
Rock vs. Hogan
Simple because of the Stunner Sell: Hall vs. Austin

Backlash:
HHH vs. Hogan

Judgement Day:
Angle vs. Edge Hair Match
Jericho vs. HHH HIAC

King Of The Ring 2002:
Trash event
Honorable Mention:
Angle vs. Hogan
Lesnar vs. RVD

Vengeance:
Rock vs. Undertaker vs. Kurt Angle

Summerslam:
Angle vs. Mysterio
HBK vs. HHH
Rock vs. Brock

Unforgiven:

Trash

No Mercy:
Brock vs. Undertaker HIAC
Edge & Rey vs. ANGLE & Benoit


Survivor Series:
Elimination Chamber
Honorable mentions:
Trish vs. Victoria
Smackdown Six 3 way elimination tag match

Armageddon
HHH vs. HBK 3 Stages of Hell.

Is there honestly a better year. The only close one would have to be 2001, but it fizzled out with terrible invasion storyline.

2001 still has to be the GOAT Road To Wrestlemania.

Not a match, but No Way Out did have the WWE debut of nWo. That was dope to see.

Regardless, I agree

 

[R=G]

U forgot Rock vs Flair
And Rock vs Eddie

 

[jadillac]

[RammerJammer]

2002 had the most stacked roster in WWE history

 

[ALTRUISM]

My favorite year in wrestling

 

[Gangstar8]

Rock vs Hogan is the GOAT wrestling match.

Shawn vs rock could have been better but it never happened.

 

[Sghost597]

There was so many wild TV matches like Edge vs. Eddie

 

[norfwestdc]

2002-2003 Smackdown was the greatest wrestling show. Raw was ass and didn't get good till about 2004.

 

[Redwood]

There was so many wild TV matches like Edge vs. Eddie

The SmackDown! Six was piff
