25 Best WWE Raw Matches Ever

25. The Miz Vs John Morrison (January 3rd, 2011)

Typical of the organisation's perpetually abusive relationship with undercard talent, it took The Miz' former partner John Morrison to join Jerry Lawler in the tiny raft of talent willing to throw a lifejacket to the new WWE Champion ahead of dreadful programmes with uncompromising headline duo Randy Orton and John Cena.

Kicking off 2011 with a thrilling Falls Count Anywhere match, the former Tag Team Champions had magnificent chemistry in an atypically violent display. Morrison in particular found a fire so often missing in his style, first brutalising Miz' hanger-on Alex Riley then recovering from a backdrop onto a guardrail to line the Champion up for Starship Pain through a table on the arena floor.

His last great risk was his ultimate undoing. Sailing through the table, he kicked out at two but was unable to rebound from a Skull Crushing Finale on the concrete.
