6. Rey Mysterio vs. JBL - WWE Intercontinental Title (WrestleMania 25)
If youre a champion who is planning to retire, there is one of two ways to go out. You can put on a classic of a match that sends fans to their feet wishing you werent leaving, or you can get squashed in 21 seconds on the grandest stage of them all. Guess which route JBL went? Bradshaw came into WrestleMania XXV as the Intercontinental Champion and left without the belt or an in-ring career, quitting moments after Mysterio hit a rapid-fire succession of moves to best him. For JBL, it was an unceremonious end to his wrestling career, but his second life in WWE as a commentator has been going strong for nearly two years, so dont feel too bad for him. For the record, this is the fourth (but not the last) title change squash at WrestleMania. Is there an epidemic we dont know about?
