5 Best Wrestling Matches of 2009

#1. The Undertaker vs. Shawn Michaels - WrestleMania XXV

This match is now considered the best WrestleMania match ever, by fans, critics, and even by WWE itself

This is the best wrestling match in WrestleMania history. It is also the best match of both wrestlers’ storied careers, which is saying a lot. It is a match of mythical proportions and reputation, and is likely to be discussed for decades to come.

Fans were going nuts from the beginning, cleanly split between both wrestlers for its entire length. For the first time in WrestleMania history, there were fans that actually wanted to see someone end the Streak. That great atmosphere was complemented by intense, nail-biting drama created by two of the greatest wrestlers in WWE history.

Whether it was the Undertaker’s terrifying suicide dive, the submission gold transitions, perfectly-executed signature moves, or the constant kick-outs, this match was off the charts. Even the commentators, who are normally supposed to maintain an air of impartiality and professionalism, were cheering wildly.

As the Undertaker said in a recent interview, to him it’s all about emotions being brought out through a match. Well not only did he have over 72,000 screaming in unison, but he also made Jim Ross ‘have an out-of-body experience’.

Only these two bona fide legends could pull off such a phenomenal match and leave every person in the crowd with a memory that will last a lifetime.
