After a boundary dispute the croquet game degenerated into a needle-match.
It was clear across the hotel dining room that Rebecca and Susan were part-way through a needle-match. And I knew who would win. Susan was no match for Rebecca, with her mental agility and mordant wit.

Brock Lesnar vs. Frank Mir in UFC 100, is one of the worst Grudge Matches in UFC history. After the fight, Brock (Overly confident that he won) screams at the camera and Franks face. He even tells Joe Rogan that he would rather drink Coolers light instead of bud-light (Because Coolers Light ain't paying him), and he'll "do" his wife one UFC 100 is over. Eventually, he apologies about his actions next morning in an interview.

Get the chess matchmug. An Inferno match is an extremely rare type of match-up in the WWE which used to be associated with Kane. The WWE describes it as the sickest of all matches to date because the only way to win is to set your opponent on fire. There have only been three of these matches since it was introduced in 1998 and each one featured kane but he lost each one. The Wrestlers are protected by wearing fire-redartant padding under their costumes. It is rarely contested today because of health concerns
