News that AJ Styles would be facing Shane McMahon at this year's WrestleMania was greeted with collective groans from the internet wrestling community, who feared that the 'Phenomenal One' - stuck in the ring with a 40-something authority figure - would be denied the opportunity to have his WrestleMania classic.

His WrestleMania classic, to be fair, could still be to come - but there's no denying that this one blew just about everyone's expectations out of the water, with the pair putting on what was easily the best match of the show, despite its low billing.

It was an illustration that we the fans don't always know best, and WWE - or someone at WWE, anyway - has an eye for a solid match pairing (as well as a reminder that AJ is the best worker in the company by a long way).
