There are a couple matches I think I'd add still just personally, but it's apples and oranges at this point with the overall level of match quality in WWE. Compare a week of Raw today from any week of Raw back in the attitude era, 97-98. The card is much more filled out today.

Anyway long story short, Shinsuke and Sami melted my brain out there. Right match at the right time for the right crowd

I gotta give a shout out to the royal rumble this year. Watching triple h win the match by throwing reigns out and then eliminating Dean was amazing. I laughed so hard, even though I knew he was going to lose it to Roman.

Nak/Zayn is number one for atmosphere, but I think the AJ/Reigns series were better matches. AJ did a pretty amazing job at selling Reigns as the ace.

Not sure about that, because people still booed him pretty bad. He did as good as he could do.

I think we can add Zayn/Owens at Battleground to this, and maybe Charlotte/Banks from Raw 07/25.

It may not be the best match of the year but I'm going with Becky/Charlotte/Sasha. I loved that match, it was the first time ever that the womens division has felt like a big deal. They went on after Lesnar and got more time than him I think. They got a pre match promo, they got big entrances, they got a big moment and it was awesome. Also helps that it was by far match of the night.

talking overall zayn/nakamura for sure. that got emotions out of me that i've never had before. but if we're talking strictly wwe, the 4-way from extreme rules deserves a shout. just a beautiful match with perfectly timed false finishes that had me invested 100% throughout

We can add Johnny Gargano vs Tommaso Ciampa to that list.
