5 most emotional WWE matches of all time

#4: Chris Benoit Vs. Triple H Vs. Shawn Michaels (WrestleMania 20)

Benoit and Guerrero shared tears of joy to close the night.

When Chris Benoit captured the World Heavyweight Championship at WrestleMania 20, the win was a long-time coming.

For 18 years, the Canadian had honed his craft, facing adversity after adversity from being considered too small in WCW, to a broken neck in WWE.

A highly emotional win, fans can see how much the opportunity meant for Benoit, who wept openly after being handed the title.

As if the ending to the 20th WrestleMania wasn't emotional enough, Benoit would be joined in the ring by WWE Champion Eddie Guerrero, as the two cried tears of joy over their success.

It's harrowing looking back now, knowing that both men would be dead within a handful of years, and that Benoit's actions in his final moments (truly evil acts), would forever taint this emotional bout.
