WWE releases their Top 25 matches of 2013
By David Miniel
This year was a huge year for the WWE as they closed out the final Pay Per View of 2013 with a new WWE World Heavyweight Champion. The path of the company will change now that both titles have been unified, which means main event talent will more than likely involve a handful of wrestlers.
With the year coming to an end, the WWE took it upon themselves to rank the Top 25 matches of 2013. I don’t remember the list from last year, but I was almost positive that CM Punk and Daniel Bryan would be on this list more than once.
It ranges all the way back to different Pay Per Views, to RAW, to Smackdown. Now let’s take a look at this list and see which makes made it.
- CM Punk vs Brock Lesnar – No Disqualification Match – (SummerSlam)
