Either X7 or the one with AJ. I'll pick the AJ one because it's fresher in my mind. IMO the worst one is the Cell match with Taker which outside of that one spot, is one of the most boring matches I've ever seen.

Considering who he was in the ring with, it's gotta be him and his dad. Even the pop that Linda stood up, that rivals some of the biggest pops I've ever seen. That match had no reason to be that good.
It is kind of funny that they never really followed up with anything else for him at Mania for him for 15 years.

The Vince match is great for what it was, but the AJ match was genuinely surprising in how he was able to hang with him and was probably match if the night for WM33

for me it's 17 vs Vince - which was much better than it should've been

AJ, because Shane performed rather admirably without having his usual bag of tricks.
Then 17, although I should say that the result is the only thing keeping 35 out of the conversation.
And was 32 really worse that the Braun match? I doubt it.

Vs. Vince is one of the best Mania "garbage" matches ever. And as said, considering who was in it, that's nothing short of a miracle.

Yeah, he had some holes while still with the company. 2002 2003 2004 2005 2006 2007 2008 2009 I thought for sure based on his feuds the year before, that he would get a Wrestlemania 20, 23 and 25 matches for sure. He was heavily involved the year before.

It was decent enough. 32 is definitely worse. However, for me the absolute worst of the bunch, and the worst thing Shane has ever been involved in, was vs The Miz. Miz's character is a guy who wins by outsmarting/outsneaking his opponent, yet during that Shane feud, Shane outsmarted him every week for 2 months plus, then beat him (and his dad) basically clean at Wrestlemania. I don't think Miz got the upper hand even once in that entire feud. My vote goes to X-7, on the basis that I was at the show and loved that match.

Voted the Styles match, but shoutout to his match with Miz, which was way better than expected.

And was 32 really worse that the Braun match? I doubt it. I thought the Braun cage match was a fun midcard match. The Taker hell in a cell though was basically the main selling point of the show and literally went 30 minutes. Even 15 years earlier Taker and Shane having a competitive match and going that long would have been terrible but in 2016 it was a complete abomination. That might be my least favorite match ever.

The thing is, the Miz face turn was working, he was over, and Shane screwed the whole thing up. The first turn didn’t work, but this time it was going gangbusters until Shane won the Mania match by dumb luck. What a lot of it boils down to is Shane doesn’t really work as well as a heel.

Shane winning the Mania match sucked, but they could have salvaged it. But... Miz kept losing. And then... lost again. Like... f*** man... he didn't get a single win over Shane.

It's either 17 or 33 for me. It's funny because they're totally different matches. 17 is sports-entertainment goodness, with Vince, Shane, Steph, Linda, Trish and Foley all involved. 33 is Shane doing an admirable job with someone as good as AJ.
Also, after the first two pictures I was hoping you were going for a theme of Shane taking a beating in his matches

I've not seen them all, but if there's been a single pop in the last ten years as loud as Linda 'there are corpses with more acting range' Mcmahon standing up out of a chair then I'll be amazed

For as much as Shane/Vince was great and had the pop of a lifetime for Linda, it also was in both men's wheelhouse in terms of brawls and weapon stuff.
AJ Styles basically dragged Shane McMahon to the best match of his career and, frankly, is the reason he's where he is on the card now so I'm picking that.
EDIT: Also, I'm not one to doubt someone's opinion but the person who voted for Shane/Taker at 32...come on now.

Him vs. his dad. And not even b/c of either of them.
Robo-Linda stole the match/the show with a performance that still holds up to this day.
Without her it's still "f*** Shane McMahon and his Eric Watts ass".
The majority of the images shown reminded me of how much I've always detested the man. Meh.

Vince vs Shane was a damn good match and it still holds up to this day.
