Seeing Maven show up on my Youtube feed, made me go back to the night he was recruited for Evolution and had to make his decision before the night was over.
It was a nice build up with Triple H getting into his head offering him a spot in Evolution. Then Orton and Jericho and Benoit persuade him not to.
In the end he chooses the world title match and loses.
What other one night storylines were your favorites? Things that were resolved in one night or someone had to make a decision before the night is over storylines?

 Flair getting a shot at Triple H and taking him to his limit. This honestly could have been his retirement if he wanted it to be. |

Flair getting a shot at Triple H and taking him to his limit. This honestly could have been his retirement if he wanted it to be. Very good storyline. Him doubting himself all night. Hunter getting on him. And then he went out there and gave it his all. You are right, it was a good way to end his career in one night. Old yeller didn't have it anymore so he retires as a wrestler. |

No Way Out 2009 with Edge losing his title in the opening elimination chamber and then finagling his way into the main event.
One of the absolute best secondary PPVs of all time.

that one episode of Smackdown where the Shield beat up all the midcard/upper midcard heels to get revenge on them helping Evolution attacking the trio on the Raw a few days prior. Probably my favorite "babyface gets revenge on a heel" angle ever.

And if I remember rightly, this was my single favourite piece of John Cena booking, because they made him look like a f***ing beast while also removing him from the match quickly and taking the belt off him. Cena comes in last, runs wild, then gets hit with three finishers in a row and is pinned, guaranteeing a new world champion. The crowd goes electric while Jericho, Edge and Rey all make eye contact around the ring. What an outstanding show. |

The Foley storyline on the Raw where he won his first world title. First one that popped in my mind. |

The Foley storyline on the Raw where he won his first world title. A great episode of Raw to be sure, but Foley and Rock had been feuding over the title for a month at that point. |
