Everybody and everything is on the internet in 2024. The "Internet Wrestling Community" terminology needed binning and/or upgrading a long time ago, yet it exists as a catch-all for a particular type of fan and taste that goes alongside it.

It's ironic - the original tastemaker that drove all that was Dave Meltzer, so influential was his coverage when such perspectives (and indeed the online spaces) were rare and isolated to a niche few. Plenty are now too young to know what he once offered, but his legacy exists in how so many people decide on the quality of something bell-to-bell. Cagematch is no different, and by those measures, Eva Marie was a shoo-in to make the cut.

Yet, she has on her resumé what nobody else in this list does - an outstanding wrestling match. Her NXT Championship match against Bayley on the November 26th 2015 edition of the show was a smoke-and-mirrors masterpiece in keeping with a brand getting absolutely everything right. It's one of the more transparent in-ring carry-jobs ever broadcast, but every tense element is impeccably agented and it doesn't happen without Marie, her character and the ability to extenuate what she can't do as much as she can.

A worst of all time? Maybe. Part of a best of all time something in pro wrestling? Absolutely.
