5 best submission matches in WWE history

Chris Benoit v Chris Jericho for the Intercontinental Championship – Judgment Day, 2000

Another great feud, another great match. Two great technicians who didn’t disappoint. A lot entertaining action here too. The two used very maneuver from their arsenals to inflict pain on the other. Counters and counter-maneuvers were too many to be counted. The two focused on each others injured body parts which can be too harsh.Although it was very intense the way in which they were performing moves were very smooth and professional. Chris Benoit even did a diving headbutt onto Jericho’s injured shoulder, who also rammed into one of the steel posts. Jericho even executed a Walls of Jericho using the ropes.

In the end, Chris Benoit had Chris Jericho trapped in the Crossface, who refused to tap out and his faced turned a little purple and lost consciousness. This led to Benoit retaining his title.
