[EoE: Well There's Your Problem]

I refuse to acknowledge this list due to the absence of Imperium v Undisputed Era from Worlds Collide.

Seriously, how is that not even in the Top 25? That’s my #1 outright!

I stopped watching soon after that match but find it hard to believe that there were 25 matches better than that.

Really enjoyed DIY Vs Moustache mountain on the same show.

I’d put Reigns v Jey Uso & The men’s Rumble match higher. Good to see that Big E v Sheamus street fight on there that was so much fun.

Also Walter v Dragunov is too low should be higher than 8th.

["Evil Brood" Jackson Vanik]

#8 should definitely be top 3 if not #1.

[fw91]

Number 20 is my number 1

[bob]

I like that the greatest wrestling match of all time

{Spoiler} isn’t #1

[lavelleuk]

Wasn't one of the things undertaker used to bury DDP the fact he used to plan matches out in advance?

Now hes winning a poll on best wrestling match of the year for what was basically a film scene

I think I only watched wrestlemania for WWE this year but I hated that boneyard match, but loved Charlotte v Rhea. I know the poll is pointless, but you'd think they'd focus on actual in the ring actual wrestling

Bayley vs Kairi Sane was my #1.

Is it just nit on the list because Kairi left?

Kairi's final matches against Sasha and Bayley were the only times on the main roster she was actually allowed to show what she can do and were spectacular and I think both those were better than the Toni Vs Kaylee Ray match that made the list.

[Pushed to the Moon]

I've not seen everything but my top 3 is:

Boneyard - Something different. Very well made.
AJ vs Bryan - Great "pure" wrestling match.
Roman vs Jey - Great story and personal drama.

I think the triple threat ladder match from Mania should be in the top 25 somewhere too probably.

[Slammy Award-Winning Cannibal]

I think the main story here is WWE feels Sasha vs Bayley was the best live match of the year. Happy for those two, they earned it.

I agree with a lot of the choices, but I'd replace
