13. Daniel Bryan Vs. Randy Orton Vs. Batista - WrestleMania XXX
Daniel Bryan has been one of the most consistent WWE performers for the past five years. Few have been involved in more good-to-great matches as has. This list is a testament to that. However, you can have all the good matches in the world, but if they're all for naught, and your effort isn't appreciated, then they become rather meaningless, in the grand scheme of things. The bearded wonder had been slapped in the face by WWE before, first when he was left off the WrestleMania XXVII card, then when he was jobbed out in eighteen seconds at the next year's 'Mania, and also when he was left out of the 2014 Royal Rumble, despite being the most over guy on the roster by a considerable margin. Following the Rumble fiasco, WWE went into damage control and engineered Bryan's WrestleMania XXX fairytale. Bryan had to first defeat Triple H to earn a spot in the World Title main event, then he had to beat The Game's Evolution buddies Batista and Randy Orton in a triple threat match. Bryan did both and in some style, it must be said. The triple threat match, in particular, was outstanding. There were concerns over how the dynamic would work, given the three guy's contrasting styles, but they pulled it out wonderfully. Then highlight (besides Bryan winning) was undoubtedly the Batista Bomb/RKO through the announce table. Stunning.
