By the time 2008 rolled around there were few things that 'Taker hadn't done in his 18-year WWE career, but one of them was competing in a Tables, Ladders and Chairs match. Thankfully, his excellent feud with Edge provided him with the opportunity to tick that one off the list.

The TLC Match was the perfect environment for the pair's rivalry, as it allowed the crafty underdog Edge to use his own experience against 'Taker and it didn't take long for the pair's in-ring chemistry - that produced some sensational offerings throughout that year - to kick in. Yes, as far as Edge/Undertaker showdowns go, this was as good as the rest of them, but that wasn't the story here.

Say what you will about athleticism, in-ring prowess or just overall experience, but the things that the 43-year old 'Phenom' accomplished in a match essentially designed for young high-flyers is nothing short of unearthly. He didn't just get used to the foreign environment quickly, he thrived in it, using it to showcase his own talents while also giving us some of the best spots of the match (the Last Ride through two tables is an incredible moment) and he even took the biggest bump of it.

Of all 'Taker and Edge's showdowns, this is the one that doesn't get enough love, because the things that these two men pulled off here - particularly The Undertaker - are remarkable.
