#1 AJ Styles vs Samoa Joe vs Christopher Daniels (TNA Unbreakable 2005)

TNA
TNA Unbreakable 2005 - the Classic

This is the greatest match in TNA history. Crazily this match almost never happened as it was originally scheduled to be a singles match between Daniels and Joe, but Styles was added to the bout last minute.

On this night all three competitors were on top their game. Daniels played the role of the heel champion who would go to any length to retain his belt, Styles played the babyface who was fueled by revenge as well as his championship aspirations, and Samoa Joe was just the bulldozer who couldn't be stopped.

This match had impressive aerial moves, brawls, technical mat wrestling, and everything in between. It was just the complete match. It was so great that even Dave Meltzer ended up giving it a five star rating, something he is not known to do for companies like TNA.

This was the first time the X-Division Championship was defended on the main event of a pay-per-view, and all three men paid back the trust gloriously. By the time Styles pinned Daniels to become the new X-Division champion, we had witnessed a contest that hasn't still been topped by the promotion.
