#9 Shawn Michaels vs. Chris Jericho - WrestleMania XIX
Everyone knew this match was going to be good, but I don't think anyone expected it to be as phenomenal as it was. Shawn had to really prove himself in this one because not only was it going to be his first WrestleMania match in 5 years, but by this point, Michaels had been back in WWE and had had at least 6 or 7 televised matches.

But only two of those had been up to the 'Shawn Michaels' standard.

After a disappointing 3 Stages of Hell match with Triple H at Armageddon 2002, Michaels immediately entered a feud with Chris Jericho, but wouldn't have an official one-on-one match with him until WrestleMania, and boy was it worth almost 3 months of waiting.
The timing of everything was on point, we had near fall after near fall, a tremendous exchange of reversals, Jericho performing his very own Sweet Chin Music and a whole lot more!
