Ladder matches are insane these day. The wrestlers are literally throwing ladders into each other's faces, and they're diving off of them onto tables.

This shot of Shawn Michaels splashing Razor Ramon at Wrestlemania X seems quaintly tame by today's standards. But context is important; 20 years ago, this was insane, dangerous, groundbreaking stuff.
