2. Sheamus Vs. Daniel Bryan - WrestleMania 28 (18 Seconds)
The most infamous sub-minute match of them all. What is left to be written about the 18 seconds between bells in the World Heavyweight Championship match between Daniel Bryan and Sheamus at WrestleMania 28? The crowd were red hot to begin with, chanting 'YES!' and anticipating a great battle between the two. A kiss and a brogue kick later, it was all over. This could arguably be seen as the one of the most important individual moments in modern professional wrestling. It set Daniel Bryan off on a road that would culminate in the greatest WrestleMania performance of all time at WrestleMania XXX, and his rise to superstardom could be seen as helping the new wave of NXT superstars reach the status they have today. Sheamus has, unfortunately, gone in the opposite direction, finding himself colder than death these days. You would be hard pushed to find a more comprehensive victory in a wrestling match where the true roles of winner and loser were so reversed in the years that followed.
