I have a list and Sami Zayn is in every worthy NXT match, except maybe one or two if we're being generous. Something to think about.
I also recently watched it again and I feel that Punk/Cena on RAW is fairly overrated. There was no drama as to who might win. It was slow. And while they told a good story, they've had much better efforts. I don't get why it's so loved.

I nominate Usos/Shield from the pre-show before some PPV over the summer(I can't recall which one) that match was off the charts. Was there live at MITB and that's the first match I thought of when I saw this thread. Pretty surprised someone else thought of it too

{Spoiler}{Spoiler for an upcoming episode of Superstars}When is Ziggler vs Cesaro II airing? Because I heard that was great {Spoiler}It should be the one this week, but since they didn't air one last week (Kaitlyn v Summer Rae and Truth/Woods v 3MB were taped for one episode, Natalya v Aksana and Cesaro v Ziggler for another) it might end up being pushed into the new year.

For me, it'sa tie between Punk/Cena on Raw, & Bryan/Cesaro as part of the gauntlet. Just below that would be Bryan/Uso's vs The Shield, but I don't remember exactly when it was.

I would even add Cesaro/Regal from this last NXT to any short list of great 2013 matches. What an epic throwback match.

Amazing match, solidified both Cesaro as one of Ring MVPs this year (along with his tag matches, guantlet with Bryan, vs Zayn, vs Neville among other matches) and Regal as the legend that he already was.

The Cesaro/Ziggler match aired. it was fun but nowhere near a MOTY contender.
Cesaro vs Regal was legitimately gripping though, really a showcase for Antonio's strength. Shame it arrived at the very end of the year, after all the lists have been sent out.

Late addition, Punk/Rollins from Raw. Hopefully we will get a PPV match between them in the future

Also, Bryan/Harper. If we can count Bryan/Cesaro from the previous gauntlet on its own, we can do the same here.

I agree, not really a MOTYC but it will definitely be on my Top 50 TV Matches of 2013 (maybe not for one with both PPV/TV) list not high up by any means. That's why I think a PPV match with 20 minutes and no breaks they could have a great one they are capable of doing. They definitely have chemistry (e.g. the reversal kick exchange and other spots in the match were really good and smooth) and I just marked due to how big it was for a first time match in any company (I think) considering their histories in ROH.
