You can probably guess what the next four entries on this list are going to be, but they're so good that we don't care.

WrestleMania 25 is a largely forgettable card, but it will always have a place in history for this one match.

The Undertaker and Shawn Michaels have crossed paths a few times on this list already, but this took things to a whole new level. The Undertaker had his Streak, of course, but Michaels had the psychological advantage as he had never lost to The Undertaker in a singles match before.

With very little build but a hell of a history, the two Texas icons went toe-to-toe in their home state. In what many call the best WrestleMania match of all time, the two legends went hell-for-leather in their quest for victory.

Memorable spots include THAT Undertaker face GIF (you know the one), The Deadman almost taking that nickname literally when a planted cameraman failed to catch him during a dive, and the final moments of the match which saw 'Taker counter a Moonsault into a Tombstone to plant Michaels for the three count.

This match is a must-watch for wrestling fans and cemented both men as two of the very best to ever grace the ring.
