WrestleMania is just around the corner, and often it is left to the final special event before the big one to put the wheels of the card in motion. Rumoured matches become sure things as feuds are sparked off and taken to new levels, whilst others that might have made it finish up and head to the wayside. The first February pay-per-view events from World Wrestling Entertainment were under the In Your House umbrella, with everything kicking off in 1996 with In Your House 6: Rage in the Cage. No Way Out came next, its first edition coming in 2000 and enjoying a nine year run before the Elimination Chamber, which had become a staple of that event, took over. This was replaced by Fastlane last year. As the tension heightens towards the end of the road to WrestleMania, many performers up their game in a last ditch attempt to impress and get a spot on the big show. As such, a number of genuine classics have come out of the February events, with memorable moments sitting neatly alongside professional wrestling masterclasses. Will the 2016 event throw up any classics to dislodge the matches in this list? We can only hope, but until then here are the 10 best matches in WWE February PPV history.
Born in the middle of Wales in the middle of the 1980's, John can't quite remember when he started watching wrestling but he has a terrible feeling that Dino Bravo was involved. Now living in Prague, John spends most of his time trying to work out how Tomohiro Ishii still stands upright. His favourite wrestler of all time is Dean Malenko, but really it is Repo Man. He is the author of 'An Illustrated History of Slavic Misery', the best book about the Slavic people that you haven't yet read. You can get that and others from www.poshlostbooks.com.
