26. Zack Ryder Gets His WrestleMania Moment
Zack Ryder celebrates with his father, having won the Intercontinental Championship in the opening match of WrestleMania 32.
WrestleMania 32 certainly won't be remembered as one of the best pay per views in the history of the event, but its opening match was unquestionably exciting. A crowd-popping ladder match saw Sami Zayn and Kevin Owens dish out bone-crunching punishment to one another, as well as impressive performances from the likes of Stardust, Sin Cara and Dolph Ziggler.
In a convincing false-finish, The Miz appeared to have the match won - only for rank outsider Ryder to emerge from nowhere and topple his ladder. 'Long Island Iced Z' then retrieved the title, finally earning his WrestleMania moment (although he would lose the championship to Miz the following night on Raw).
