3. Firefly Fun House Match: John Cena Vs. "The Fiend" Bray Wyatt

Result: The Fiend puts Cena away with the Mandible Claw (13:00).

Rating: That opening fakeout with Cena's entrance was quite brilliant, and though this didn't have the same element of surprise that the Boneyard match did, it was still a fantastically unique performance piece of a wrestling match.

It's easy to appreciate why some fans might find it too ridiculous, but given how aggressively self-seriously WWE can take itself, it was neat to see them delving into some more creative and boundary-pushing meta areas like this.

To their credit, Wyatt and Cena were clearly fully committed to it, and while it barely counts as an actual wrestling match, were most of us not at least sports entertained? 7/10
