Triple H vs Undertaker End of an Era is probably my favorite long match. You know it’s something special when a near 50 minute match feels like 20 minutes
@@RyanParrott27 No, considering Bret and Shawn's was from Mania 12, I'd not think so. Just no Mania matches reached the bell to bell length of these to make the list past that one evidently. Taker and HHH actually only ran 30:57 in actual match time to that end, so was far shorter than it may have seemed.
I was at the SAP center in San Jose for the "House of Horror" match, it defied time and space because they started the match wherever the house was in the darkness of night then made there way to the arena in the light of day to finish the match within the span of 30 minutes.
That 2014 survivor series match is probably my favorite ever. Ziggler is great at selling and the pop when he would litterally be dead in the ring and hit a zigzag was insane.
I'd love to see a list of the longest one on one matches (ironman matches notwithstanding). It's kind of a gimme to see the tag and multi-man matches on this list.
With the tag-team tag-team elimination matches at the first two Survivor Series, it's amazing that there were 10 legit teams with team names, matching gear, and double-team finishers across the board. What I'd give for the current tag-team scene in WWE to have such depth.
Should've excluded Survivor Series elimination matches aswell they would obviously be longer than an average match much like the rumble, but you do you man.
The fact is, there are singles matches longer than the average Survivor Series Elimination match, while the standard Royal Rumble lasts around one hour

I don't care what anyone says Bret vs Shawn at WM12 was an awesome match, I remember watching it live at home and watching every captivating minute. I put at 6 on top 10 PPV Main event match ever.
I'd say Iron Man Matches particularly with the fixed 1 hour at the least length, ala the Rumbles, not as bothered about others though, since EC's and especially Survivor Series matches could run shorter or longer depending.
Respect to Curtis Axel for the shortest Iron Man match in history when he defeated Triple H in 2 minutes and 18 seconds. Combine that with his Royal Rumble legacy and you truly have a well-rounded hall of fame resume.
probably should've also not included survivor series tag matches if the rumble isn't allowed. It took up a considerable amount of entries. I was expecting all singles matches.
As a diehard Cultaholic fan, I can not get enough of the incredible lists that the whole Cultaholic crew consistently create at a seemingly breakneck rate. Personally, I believe that Adam Pacitti has as much to do with the success & popularity of the Cultaholic brand as the stellar content itself. I’ll be a loyal Cultaholic & Adam Pacitti supporter to the end. Keep up the superb work guys! All of the tireless work & effort that each one of you contribute is very much appreciated by myself & Cultaholic fans alike. ✊🏼
The time elapsed from opening bell to the finish was that long. It was really two wrestling segments with a long period of time where they were supposedly brawling off camera. It really shouldn't be on the list if Wyatt/Orton wasn't.
Survivor Series ‘88 took place in Richfield Township, not Richmond Township. The Cleveland Cavaliers played there for 20 years, and Muhammad Ali fought Chuck Wepner at the Richfield Coliseum. Not many people live around there but they hosted a lot of big events.
I feel as though if Royal Rumbles we're not counted, that other stipulation matches such as Survivor Series tag teams and iron man matches also shouldn't be counted
4:20 he has there was a rumor in 2010 about wwe making survivor series into an all steel cage ppv like tna lockdown but plans changed intime for the show yes that is real
The house they used for the House of Horrors is actually in Richmond Missouri. About an Hour outside of Kansas City. I’m from KC but my friend lives out there And lives by the house they used. I even went to it after they left.
That 2016 survivor series match was one of the best survivor series elimination match. Only ones on that level was the 2005 match, 2014 match and the 2003 Austin Vs Bischoff match.
My favorite thing about Backlash last year was that they did the AJ Styles vs Daniel Bryan Intercontinental title match on Smackdown to avoid headlines like "The second greatest wrestling match at this year's Backlash"
I remember the WCW vs WWF match. my dad was so upset that WCW lost cause he was a huge WCW fan. But he eventually got over it after they became WWE and kept a lot of the WCW wrestlers anyway.
I was at Payback 2017 at Sap Center in San Jose California. That match..... It just didn't work. Killed a good / positive vibe that the fans were having in the arena prior to having watch the 1st part of the match on the Titantron respectively.
i was actually at Payback 2017 and i went and got food during the house of horrors match. i came back and asked my dad: "what did i miss" he said: "nothing interesting"
Wait when it comes to Bragging Rights Iron Man Match, don’t we have to count the cool down time between falls? I haven’t watched the match in so many years so I don’t remember honestly but did that cool down time count as extra time or did it come from that 1 hour count? If it counted as extra time, that makes it the longest match ever but I could be wrong. Someone please let me know. Thank you.
Bruno Sammartino vs. Waldo Von Erich (May 11, 1964) holds the record for longest singles match in WWE history. After 81 minutes, the match ended in a draw due to curfew.
The house of horror match actually has a negative running time. It was obviously dark at the house but was not outside the arena. Since they had to be close to get to the arena in the time they did the only answer is time travel, so the match ended before it started.
I haven't watched Cultaholic...ever, really. But the last time I stumbled across one of their videos (must've been pre-COVID?), Adam didn't sound like this. Something between one of those "TOP 10 UNEXPLAINED GHOST SIGHTINGS" narrators and someone eccied of their face in a club trying to explain the meaning of life to you over the ear shredding music.
In the WWE vs The Alliance match Stone Cold was in ECW and WCW before he entered his WWE career so it's possible he was representing his original roots in the match as well
Once again my intrest is peeked. Here is a topic that I noticed isn't mentioned much anymore. Iron Man Matches. That could be a good list. One of my favorite ones that is lesser known is A.J. Styles vs Christopher Daniels. I'm not sure if they did it twice but that one was a barnburner
