10 Best Wrestling Matches In WWE April PPV History
6. John Cena Vs. Edge - Backlash 2009
By 2009 Edge was a bonafide main event star, one interested in winning World Championships and nothing else. The Canadian was pretty darn successful at that too, and this Last Man Standing match against the then-World Heavyweight Champion saw him pick up his third world title in the year to date. Those potatoes were pretty hot back then.
As with most LMS matches the selling throughout is a little weird, but then sometimes it is wiser to forget logic and sit back and watch the match itself. Both men work extremely hard throughout, and a solid argument could be made for Edge being Cena's greatest ever opponent.
Of course, it would be one of Cena's less heralded opponents that would get involved leading to the finish. Big Show comes out just as Cena is about to FU Edge into oblivion, and proceeds to chokeslam him into one of the spotlights on the stage. The whole thing explodes, and needless to say Cena isn't getting up.
Edge wins back his world title as Cena lies covered in glass. It was a memorable finish to a memorable match.
