John Cena vs. Batista (2008)
On paper, one would automatically assume that John Cena and Batista would be bound to have a train wreck of a match. But their anticipated encounter at 2008's SummerSlam was anything but, as the two icons produced a better bout than anyone could have expected.
The bad blood had been brewing between the two for years, and they were finally able to settle their score at SummerSlam to prove who was the superior Superstar. It may not have been a mat classic, yet the crowd was engaged in everything they did during the course of the contest.
From Batista Bombs to Attitude Adjustments, seemingly nothing could earn them the victory over the other until Batista snatched Cena in mid-air with a Batista Bomb (which literally broke Cena's neck) to score the hard-fought victory. It was another year and a half before their paths crossed again at WrestleMania 26.
