04. Randy Orton Vs. Batista Vs. Daniel Bryan (Triple Threat Match) – Wrestlemania XXX
The number 05 spot belongs to the culmination of one of the best storylines in recent memories. Daniel Bryan started his eight month long road to Wrestlemania at SummerSlam 2013. Bryan got screwed time & time again and failed to capture the World title from Orton. Bryan challenges Triple H for a match at WM XXX with a clause that the winner between him and Hunter would be added to the WWE World Heavyweight Championship match, thus making it to a Triple Threat match. Bryan defeated Triple H and got inserted himself in the main event.
During the match, Batista & Orton worked together on Bryan. Batista threw Bryan down with a Batista Bomb onto the Spanish announce table, while Orton immediately combined with an inverted version of RKO. EMT arrives and carted Bryan away on a stretcher. Suddenly, Bryan got off the stretcher and crawled back to the ring. Batista drops Orton with a Batista Bomb, but Bryan came out of nowhere with a running knee on Batista. Bryan then trapped Batista in the “Yes! Lock”. Batista taps out. One of the best main events in Wrestlemania history with great storytelling & in-ring combat.
I always liked his match vs Cactus Jack at Bashlack ’04. That match truly made his career (and eventual ‘Legend Killer’ character as well).
