Time to have one of these threads so we can include the great matches we've watched all year. I specified that this will be a WWE only thread, to avoid any of the problems from my MOTY thread at the end of last year.

Here's my top ten so far.

10) WWE Cruiserweight Championship Tournament First Round: Jack Gallagher vs. Mustafa Ali - 205 Live 2/20 - ***3/4
9) Asuka vs. Sasha Banks - Raw 1/29 - ***3/4
8) NXT Tag Team Championship: The Undisputed Era [c] vs. The Authors of Pain - TakeOver: Philadelphia - ***3/4
7) WWE United Kingdom Championship: Pete Dunne [c] vs. Roderick Strong - NXT 2/14 - ****
6) John Cena vs. Seth Rollins - Raw 2/19 - ****
5) NXT Championship vs. Career Match: Andrade Almas [c] vs. Johnny Gargano - NXT 2/21 - ****
4) Extreme Rules Match: Adam Cole vs. Aleister Black - TakeOver: Philadelphia - ****
3) WWE Cruiserweight Championship Tournament First Round: Hideo Itami vs. Roderick Strong - 205 Live 2/6 - ****1/4
2) Men's Royal Rumble Match - Royal Rumble - ****1/2
1) NXT Championship: Andrade Almas [c] vs. Johnny Gargano - TakeOver: Philadelphia - *****

To me, that was the best WWE produced match I have seen in a very, very long time.

I really hope we don’t miss out on all of those amazing matches just because a couple people couldn’t handle the thread not being WWE only....

Pretty hard to put a star rating on such a marathon of a match.

John Cena vs. Seth Rollins - ****
Elias vs. Seth Rollins - **1/2

I think the personal emotion added to the story.

I’ll have to give Gargano/Ciampa another watch.
