The Top 25 Matches of Summerslam (Full Results)

[MGH]

The time has come! One of the most anticipated countdowns from the series will take place tomorrow. This is without a doubt the most hotly contested battle to date, and for what I believe is only the third time, we ended in a tie. The tiebreaker is of course based on overall first place votes cast between the two, so we'll see where they landed. While the 25 will wait until tomorrow, the cut list is here and now.

Also something of note I know a lot of you were excited for. Unbelievably, today marks exactly one year to the day that we counted down the top 20 matches in The Rock's career and kicked this series off. That one year mark is when lists become eligible for count downs once again. So starting now, any list that becomes a year old can, and most likely will, be re-done. This is for the new voters that have arrived over the past 12 months, and those who missed lists they wish they'd gotten a chance to participate in. Also in the case of the Edges and Jeff Hardys of the world, a chance for matches they've had since their countdowns were done to get some recognition. So be on the look out, from here on out some familiar faces will be reappearing on occasion!

If it's the top 25, then why did you show what #21-#25 were?

Yet another wrinkle in how tight this list was. I finally finished putting the list together, and went back to tally the first place votes to break our tie. The tie is broken, and appropriately enough, by ONE vote. Our winner received 9 first place votes, with the runner up receiving 8.

Looks like all of mine made the cut! Sweet!

Here's mine so far:
