Gimmick Matches

Watching the Royal Rumble last night put Mr. Handsome's brain into nostalgia mode. I've seen a lot of different matches in my day, hell, someone a decade younger than me has seen their share of gimmick matches. But, I wonder to myself, Mr. Handsome, what are you favorite gimmick matches? Like, a TLC match versus just a plain ladder match. I did some thinking. I had to reflect matches that provide drama in their own right as an individual match but still allow for stellar wrestling. Some matches, like the god-awful scaffold match, were immediate knocked off the list. I want to be entertained, not watch people almost die. Screw you, New Jack. You nearly killed Grimes and my love of wrestling in one fell swoop. Anyway, these are my favorite gimmick matches according to those I've found consistently dramatic and useful for a story line.
