9) Rhea Ripley vs. Charlotte Flair for the Raw Women's Championship (WWE Money In The Bank 2021)
Rhea Ripley was called up to the WWE main roster earlier this year with lofty expectations. The former NXT Women's Champion had made a name for herself as one of the can't-miss prospects who would be the future of the company. This is why her Raw Women's Championship win over Asuka at WrestleMania 37 had many believing she would be on course for success.
Her biggest rival in WWE was always going to be Charlotte Flair. The Queen defeated Ripley to win the NXT Women's Championship at WrestleMania 36 and returned after WrestleMania 37 looking for her gold. This led to a showdown at Money In The Bank 2021.
The two women were in front of a Fort Worth, Texas crowd that weren't very interested in their contest. However, Flair and Ripley willed this encounter to be a showstealing display from both ladies. The stiffness in the strikes and how crisp the sequences were made this compelling. Charlotte beat Rhea with the Figure 8 to claim her 13th WWE Women's Championship.
8) Roman Reigns vs. Cesaro for the WWE Universal Championship (WWE WrestleMania Backlash)
Following WWE WrestleMania 37, Cesaro was riding high with plenty of momentum after a huge win over Seth Rollins. Roman Reigns was also firing on all cylinders after a convincing victory over both Daniel Bryan and Edge. The two superstars would meet in a highly anticipated clash to headline WrestleMania Backlash.
Roman's WWE Universal Championship matches were known for their marvelous storytelling and this was no different. Cesaro added his superb in-ring work to give the fans a captivating main event. Reigns worked over Cesaro's arm throughout the bout and eventually that came into play when the Tribal Chief locked on his guillotine choke to win and retain his title.
