'Taker and Randy Orton produced some absolute classics throughout 2005, including their initial WrestleMania bout, their pay-per-view worthy SmackDown match later that year and their feud-ending Hell In A Cell clash.

Then you have the pair's less-talked about collision at SummerSlam 2005 - a match that took place after Orton, upset that he couldn't kill the legend of The Undertaker at WrestleMania 21, decided to renew the rivalry over the summer.

While this one didn't quite meet the high standard of any of those aforementioned contests, it was still a strong offering, with a predictably screwy finish in order to allow the feud to continue - and ultimately reach greater heights. More than that, it was nice to see 'Taker getting consistently paired with younger, faster athletes at SummerSlam who could bring out the best in him - something Orton was great at.
