20 Best WWE Matches Since 2000

WrestleMania X-7 is widely regarded as one of (if not the) best events in WWE history. While much of this is down to Steve Austin and The Rock's fantastic main event, TLC II is just as important, and WWE's three premiere tag teams put on an absolute barnstormer.

Tag wrestling was incredibly hot in 2001, and these men were responsible. The Dudleyz, Hardyz, and Edge & Christian were genuinely among WWE's biggest stars at the time, and they were regularly putting everyone else on the roster to shame.

Things really kicked-off with their triangle ladder match at WrestleMania 2000, and they went even further with the first Tables, Ladders, and Chairs match at that year's SummerSlam. The stipulation's second outing was eventually booked for WrestleMania X-7, and somehow, these six lunatics outdid themselves again.

This was a glorious stunt-filled spotfest, and 16 minutes of insane bump after insane bump. They produced a dizzying amount of death-defying high spots, and it's a miracle that nobody left with a serious injury. From jumping through tables and off 20-foot ladders to spearing each other mid-air, these men produced a high-risk tightrope walk of a match that could have easily ended any of their careers that night, but didn't.

Watching matches like this makes it far easier to understand Edge & Christian's early retirements, but TLC II made all six participants legends. Tag team wrestling has never been so exciting, and likely never will be again.
