1. Running Up That Hill

Shelton Benjamin's career is often distilled into two moments, which would be a shame - his longevity, consistency, and ability to work across several promotions is equally admirable - if both weren't so utterly astonishing.

His infamous sell of Shawn Michaels' Superkick in their fabulous RAW match required unreal timing and athleticism, but the true testament of that phenomenal physiology lies within his iconic contribution to WrestleMania 21. Running up a resting ladder in order to drop Chris Jericho to the mat, this was the very stuff that makes wrestling art. Benjamin pulled off the magic of the impossible, seamlessly, in plain sight, in a bump that didn't drastically damage either man. Benjamin provided the best moment in the best-ever Money In The Bank Ladder Match.

This spot remains the gold standard of its greatness.
