    Which ones do you think were the best? I know it wasnt really his retirement match, hence the quotation marks in the title, but HBK v Ric Flair is the best I think, for the emotion and drama.

    Do you mean matches that were billed as retirement matches or matches that were a wrestlers last?

    If the latter then look no further than Wrestlemania XIX - Austin vs Rock III

    Full match - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1ke5ybNgkWQ

    Shawns first retirement match with Austin at Wrestlemania XIV was brilliant too. Shawn knew he was hurt and knew he was quitting, but still bumped all over the place to make Austin look like a star.

    Starts about three minutes in.

    Full match is on youtube in several parts.
