Ladder matches in the WWE are the most violent and career-threatening matches. These types of matches have rendered injuries to players and have damaged various body parts.

The objective of a ladder match is to climb a ladder and grab the fortune at stake before any of your opponents. The match can comprise a minimum of two players and maximum any number of players. Mostly championship titles and contracts are hung above the ring in these types of matches, but several other objects are also put in certain ladder matches.

Though the WWE has witnessed various world-class ladder matches, let us also have a look at some dream ladder match among the wrestlers from the past as well present.

#5 Triple H vs Randy Orton vs Batista

There was a time when Randy, Triple H and Batista all of them used to have each other’s backs. They were the most dominating force in the WWE and no wrestler could stand toe-to-toe with the trio. But then Randy won the World Heavyweight Championship and this caused ego clash within the group.

The rivalry was so excessive between the trio, that they have thrashed each other very badly and caused several injuries which forced them to stay out of action for months.

However, the trio has never competed in a ladder match together. If this happens, this will be the most enthralling match in WWE ever. Three former world champions will collide and battle for the ultimate supremacy. The three of them have battled one another but never fought together in a triple threat match.

If ever a match like this happens, it will be forever be remembered as the greatest collision between the former members of the same group in professional pro-wrestling. The audience will be equally divided as the three of them have a strong fan base, and it will be difficult to pick anyone as the favourite.

#4 Shinsuke Nakamura vs Finn Balor vs Rey Mysterio

Not many often in the WWE do we get to see players with similar technical abilities and equal agility compete against one another. At present Shinsuke Nakamura is the blue-eyed wrestler of SmackDown and he has earned that reputation by defeating legends like Randy Orton and John Cena.

Rey Mysterio was the best Cruiserweight wrestler in between 2000-2010. He could jump out of nowhere and bring forth moves which seemed nearly impossible. While in the current roster of RAW, we have a highly talented, athletic performer and is also the former WWE Universal Champion named- Finn Balor. If the three of them collide in a ladder match against one another, it will be the most breathtaking ladder match ever in the WWE.

While Rey Mysterio has the high flying ability and Balor is the most technically sound player we have today in professional wrestling, Shinsuke also has the attitude to be offensive as well as defensive and keeps fighting till he knocks his opponent down. If the creative team of WWE can ever produce a match featuring these three superstars in a ladder competition, it will the most televised rated points match as the entire WWE Universe from age eight to eighty will be glued to watch this competition.

#3 Big Show vs Kane vs Mark Henry

We have seen 'giants' fight in the WWE. But it's not often that we witness those giants compete against one another. What we also don't get to see are giants competing against one another in a ladder match. The management along with the creative team of WWE can unanimously decide to form a triple threat ladder match between the three giants- Big Show, Kane and Mark Henry. This will be the most fatal, triple threat match ever going to be in all of the professional pro wrestling.

Big Show is the most dominant giant to have ever stepped foot in the WWE and was the most brutal World Champion ever. Kane possesses demonic strength and the Big red machine can destroy anyone in the WWE while Mark Henry is the world's strongest man and can single-handedly defeat both Kane and the Big Show. These three men will weigh nearly 1100 lbs combined and this will the strongest and heaviest ladder match ever. Though the chances are bleak, it can still be a possibility somewhere in the future.

#2 Rock vs AJ Styles vs CM Punk

The three of them have displayed an equal passion for the WWE Championship

Rock is perhaps the most prominent and successful WWE wrestler till date who has a fan following across the globe. Whether it is in the movies, or inside the ring, he does everything possible for a mortal being that has gifted him a larger than life image.

Similarly, the WWE Champion AJ Styles has made an impression in the WWE in such a short span of time which other players could not obtain for decades. He has proved to the world with his unique, innovative moves, why he is the best wrestler in the world at present.

Also, another such a superstar who has gained a lot of publicity and stardom owing to his wrestling and promo building skills is CM Punk. He was the first ever and till date the only back to back Money in the Bank Ladder match winner.

These players have very less chance to compete against each other in a ladder match as Punk has already said that he does not intend to return to WWE and Rock only makes occasional appearances. However, if CM Punk reverses his decision and the three of them competes in the ladder match it will be a dream come true for the entire wrestling fraternity.

It will be a competition between the 'phenomenal' AJ Styles, the 'agent of change' CM Punk and 'the great one' - Rock to create a legacy in WWE that shall be remembered forever.

#1 John Cena vs Brock Lesnar vs Goldberg

This would be one helluva match
This would be one helluva match

There is not an iota of doubt that these three players are undoubtedly the greatest superstars to have ever competed in the WWE ring. John Cena has feuded with Brock Lesnar and their rivalry was highly enjoyed by the WWE universe. They produced some of the greatest matches ever in the history of WWE.

The same can be said about Goldberg and Brock Lesnar. Both of them fought several times and gave each other the beating of a lifetime. Even though Goldberg won most of the matches, Brock Lesnar had the last laugh when he beat him at WrestleMania 33. This was the first time any wrestler ever defeated Goldberg in a single's competition.

But the trio never faced each other together in a match. If the three of them face each other in a ladder match, it will be the most devastating ladder match in the WWE. Though Goldberg has announced retirement, he stated there might be a chance of him returning in future. If that happens, then this match can certainly be a possibility.
