Samus Mario aside your top 10 is good. I probably put the top 10 at something like...

10. Mario/Samus (2005)
9. Link/Crono/Vincent/Zero (2007)
8. Starcraft/Melee (Spring 2004)
7. Final Fantasy VII/Ocarina of Time (Spring 2004)
6. Draven/Link/Shepard (2013)
5. Starcraft/Wind Waker (Spring 2004)
4. Mario/Cloud (2002)
3. Mario/Crono (2003)
2. L-Block/Link/Cloud/Snake (2007)
1. Cloud/Link (2003)

Other things of note.

Highest Master Chief 07 match would be much higher. Definitely top 25. Also would've probably picked r2 or r3 rather than r1.

Probably Ansem/CATS and Kuja/Hand on there. Definitely snubs imo. Maybe Trainers v Ryu/Ken too as the one token Rivalry Rumble match worth mentioning.

Less 2015 and 2018 in general. 2013 really felt like the final hurrah for these contests for me. 2015 just felt like a footnote, and 2018 will soon too. Once you can turn a 65-35 with only like 8000 votes these things feel kinda unimportant in general.

Mario/Crono 02 is somewhere in the next few. I feel like 03 is the one people always talk about and what made it a real rivalry and 02 is just kinda the necessary first in the series, but *shrug maybe I'm wrong. I wasn't here till 2004 after all.
