Wrestling offers fan service unlike any other sport, which is shown by these memorable title wins.

Wrestling is unlike any sport in that its scripted nature can guarantee the satisfactory ending that fans have been anticipating. Despite this, there have been numerous examples of promoters squandering the delivery of something that looked certain to be thrilling. Whether it be a promo, match, or an entire feud, not all expectations can be realised in the extremely fragile world of wrestling.

However, when it is done well, there is nothing quite like the action found inside the squared circle, as a gratifying outcome can reduce any staunch critic to an excited fan once again. The most obvious occurrence of this is when wrestling delivers a feel-good win for fans to celebrate, as happiness is ultimately what all spectators are looking to receive from their chosen sport.

The recent AEW World Tag Team Championship win for The Acclaimed was a perfect example of this, as the homegrown talents of Max Caster and Anthony Bowens deserved the accolade for garnering so much popularity.

Their matches against Swerve In Our Glory were the hottest on the card at All Out and Grand Slam, which made the title change at the latter an obvious decision for the promotion to make.

In 2011, the unfortunate retirement of the Edge helped grant an overdue world title reign in WWE for his best friend Christian. Shortly after retaining his World Heavyweight Championship at WrestleMania 27, the 'Rated-R Superstar' had to vacate the title due to his career-ending injury. To crown a new champion a ladder match between Christian and Alberto Del Rio was set for the Extreme Rules pay-per-view.

It was difficult to tell which competitor would come out on top, as both had good enough reasons to be the next champion. Del Rio was one of the company's fastest-rising young stars whilst Christian had predominantly been performing in WWE's reincarnation of ECW since returning to the company in 2009.

In the end, the sentimental support for 'Captain Charisma' prevailed as the tag-team specialist claimed his first world title in the company. The win felt right for two reasons, it was nice seeing Edge's legacy live on through his best friend, whilst Christian rightfully earned the accolade for his years of hard work inside and outside of WWE.
