10 Best WWE Matches of the Year 2005

#7 Matt Hardy vs. Edge - Unforgiven

So personal but made for great TV

This was one of the most personal feuds in WWE history, as it was based on real life. The first match of the Matt Hardy vs. Edge feud at SummerSlam was a big disappointment, but they made up for it with a killer Street Fight on RAW a few weeks later.

That battle had no winner, however, which brought us to this Steel Cage match at Unforgiven.

Matt gave a quick attack to start it off and it became a slugfest until Edge knocked him down and went for a quick escape attempt.

The crowd are really behind Matt and want to see him destroy Edge. Some use of the cage as a weapon and more attempted escapes for Edge. The Rated-R Superstar then hit Matt with a buckle bomb, followed by an impressive top rope powerbomb.

After more attempted escapes from Edge, Matt hit some signature moves to loud ovations before tying Edge in the ring ropes and belting away on him to even louder cheers. Edge is busted open after several shots into the cage.

Lita climbed into the cage and tried to attack Matt. He then hit Lita with a Twist of Faith to a huge ovation but was then hit with a Spear from Edge for a two count.

As Edge attempted to climb out again, Matt caught him and hit his head off the cage, knocking him down. As Matt is about to climb out, he turns back and hit a massive leg drop off the top, and pinned Edge for the win.
