The idea is that at the end of the year, dozens of Rajah forum members submitted lists of the WWE matches that they thought were the best. After an exhaustive process of averaging and general mathiness, a top 25 list was composed and over the course of the next few weeks, it will be revealed one match at a time.<\/p>\n<p>If you agree or disagree with the matches on this list, or just wish to give your thoughts on them in a rad place full of skateboarding dinosaurs and charming secret agents, then hop on down to the Rajah Forums, make yourself an account and join the party. <\/p>\n<p><center><\/center><br \/>\n<center><\/center><\/p>\n<div style=\"text-align: center;\">\nTHE RAJAH FORUMS ARE JUST A CLICK AWAY<\/div>\n<p><center><\/center><br \/>\n<center><\/center><\/p>\n<p>Now let&#8217;s get on with the next installment of the countdown&#8230;<\/p>\n<p><center><\/center><br \/>\n<center><\/center><\/p>\n<div style=\"text-align: center;\">\n&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8211;<\/div>\n<p><center><\/center><br \/>\n<center><\/center><\/p>\n<div style=\"text-align: center;\">\nWWE World Heavyweight Championship<br \/>\nRandy Orton(c) vs. Batista vs. Daniel Bryan<br \/>\nWrestleMania XXX 4\/06<\/div>\n<p><center><\/center><br \/>\n<center><\/center><\/p>\n<div style=\"text-align: center;\">\n<\/div>\n<p><center><\/center><br \/>\n<center><\/center><\/p>\n<p>Just 30 minutes after the end of Undertaker\u2019s streak left the Superdome in stunned silence, it was up to these three to deliver a worthy Wrestlemania main event. The crowd initially sound pretty deflated and some must have wondered if the crowd\u2019s lack of noise would help replicate previously tepid Mania main events like HHH\/Jericho, HHH\/Orton and Miz\/Cena. <\/p>\n<p>They start off well though and Bryan goes for his signature \u201cYES!\u201d kicks in the corner which generates some response. Orton\u2019s work early on is pretty smart as well. When he gets his hands on Bryan he goes straight for the injured shoulder. This takes Bryan out of the match for a couple of minutes while Orton and Batista brawl on the outside. After injuring Batista\u2019s back, Orton remembers to go back to Bryan and do some more damage before returning to Batista once again. Bryan interrupts Orton\u2019s domination and takes on both opponents with kicks and the running corner strikes. Lawler points out that Bryan is deliberately avoiding landing on his injured shoulder. Bryan goes for a cover on Orton and JBL points out that the injured shoulder prevented him from hooking the leg. <\/p>\n<p>As Bryan locks in the YES Lock on Orton, Trips and Stephanie hit the ring and take out Mike Chioda, prompting crooked ref Scott Armstrong to emerge from the crowd. Batista casually hits the Batista bomb but Bryan kicks out just in time and now the crowd really start to respond. The odds against Bryan now really are huge. With an already injured shoulder, having wrestled a 25 minute match earlier in the show, he has to overcome a crooked ref, Triple H, Stephanie and both of the much bigger (and fresher) Batista and Orton. Bryan kicks Armstrong in the head, cuts off Trips when he goes for the sledgehammer and takes out all three intruders with a suicide dive. They\u2019re helped to the back and the crowd love it. But soon Batista and Orton decide to work as a team and beat Bryan down, ending with the big RKO\/Batista Bomb combo through the announce table. Orton and Batista are left to fight it out in the ring as Bryan is taken away on a stretcher. Earlier in the match, when it was just Batista and Orton fighting it out, nothing but a faint \u201cboring\u201d chant could be heard. Now it\u2019s the same scenario but the crowd chants \u201cDaniel Bryan\u201d in unison instead.<\/p>\n<p>The final few minutes are as exciting as you\u2019d hope from a Mania main event. There\u2019s reversals and near falls a-plenty. When Bryan halts a Randy Orton punt attempt with the running knee, Batista chucks him through the ropes and with a huge grin on his face, covers Orton. I remember being completely taken in by this at the time. What an arsehole Batista looks. Orton\u2019s late kick out prompts another Batista bomb before Bryan knocks him out with the running knee and submits him with the Yes Lock to a huge pop. Bryan immediately no sells the shoulder that had been such a factor over the course of the night, lifting both title belts above his head for the \u201cYES!\u201d chant. We\u2019ll let him off though. Biggest moment of his career and all that. Smart work and extra booking helped this match win over a tired crowd and deliver a more than worthy lead-in to one of the most memorable Wrestlemania moments of all time.<\/p>\n<p><center><\/center><\/p>\n<div style=\"text-align: center;\">\nSigned,<br \/>\nRingo<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: center;\">\n\n<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: center;\">\nPoints: 441<br \/>\nHighest Rank: #1 (Atty, greebull, MikeHunt, Rancid_Planet, The Rick)<\/div>\n<div>\n<\/div>\n<p><center><\/center><br \/>\n<center><\/center><br \/>\n<center><\/center><br \/>\n<center><\/center><\/p>\n<div class=\"separator\" style=\"clear: both; text-align: center;\">\n<\/div>\n<p><center><\/center><\/p>\n<p><center>Blog<br \/>\nEmail<br \/>\nTwitter<br \/>\nFacebook<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Greetings and salutations, boys and girls, and welcome to the first Rajah main page installment of the most prestigious countdown list of the year, the Rajah Forums Countdown of WWE&#8217;s Best Matches of 2014!
