This Sunday, WWE returns to the glorious Canadian city of Toronto for its first PPV there in a decade. It is a curiously long time to spend away from a major city, especially one with such a proud wrestling history. Toronto is the capital city of Ontario, the province that has given us performers like Trish Stratus, Edge, Christian, and Bobby Roode.

Survivor Series 2016 will be the fifth time WWE has held a PPV in the city, and as mentioned it will be the first since Unforgiven way back in 2006. Two years prior to Unforgiven, Toronto was the venue for SummerSlam, an event that saw Randy Orton break Brock Lesnar's record for youngest world champion in company history.

Toronto has also played host to WrestleMania on two occasions, WrestleManias X8 and VI. The former was the night Hollywood Hogan became beloved once more as he faced off against The Rock, 12 years after he had symbolically passed the torch to The Ultimate Warrior in the same arena.

The two WrestleManias took place in Toronto's SkyDome, whereas Unforgiven and SummerSlam hailed from the same venue as this Sunday's extravaganza, the AirCanada Centre. Both venues have seen some historic matches over those four events, and here are the 10 finest.

Will anything from this Sunday join this list? Time will tell...
