#2 Randy Orton vs. Christian - Over The Limit 2011

Fantastic chemistry
Fantastic chemistry

Randy Orton and Christian had an excellent series of matches in 2011. While everyone at the time was raving about feud on RAW between John Cena and CM Punk, SmackDown was giving equally as fantastic television with this phenomenal feud.

Orton and Christian would collide for the World Heavyweight Championship a couple times on SmackDown, and on four consecutive pay-per-views, Over The Limit, Capital Punishment, Money in The Bank and SummerSlam. Most fans look at their SummerSlam encounter as being the best, but in my opinion, their first pay-per-view bout at Over The Limit is the clear best.

After some great back and forth action to kick this off, the fans were already really into it and split right down the middle on who they want to win, maybe slightly more towards Christian. Orton locks in some submissions, only to be reversed by Christian, who gave some high-risk moves. There were some really close near-falls after some big moves from both men, followed by Christian hitting the Spear to a big pop and loud two-count. Christian attempted the Killswitch twice, but is countered both times, the latter into an RKO for the victory.

A fantastic and underrated match that is a must see!
