There's a reason this was the impossible yardstick against which Randy Orton and Edge's blustery Backlash 'Greatest Wrestling Match Ever' would be measured. It actually has a claim to the title.

The famous shot of The Undertaker's incredulous, puffed out face after Shawn Michaels kicked out of his first Tombstone said it all. As much as he couldn't believe what he'd just witnessed, neither could the 72,000 people packed in to Houston's Reliant Stadium. They knew this meeting of WrestleMania icons would be good, but they never expected it to be this good.

A second Tombstone would finally end The Heartbreak Kid's challenge - for this year, at least - bringing to a close a brisk 30 minutes of perfectly paced action that'd redefine WWE's main event style for a generation. This wasn't just The Undertaker's greatest match, but the greatest match in WWE history.

Benjamin was born in 1987, and is still not dead. He variously enjoys classical music, old-school adventure games (they're not dead), and walks on the beach (albeit short - asthma, you know). He's currently trying to compile a comprehensive history of video game music, yet denies accusations that he purposefully targets niche audiences. He's often wrong about these things.
