Top 3 WWE PPV matches of 2018 so far

#1 Ronda Rousey and Kurt Angle vs Stephanie McMahon and Triple H -Wrestlemania 34

In the last match, I talked about going out with a bang. In this match, we saw someone coming in with a bang. The stars were aligned for Ronda Rousey during this night. She had the perfect debut anyone could dream about. A marquee spot on the Wrestlemania card, sharing the ring with two of the all-time greats, the opportunity to throw Stephanie McMahon around (which most wanted to see), and a raucous crowd to witness all of this.

The build to this match was all about Ronda Rousey. The others just added star power to this bout to get eyeballs. The history between Triple H, Kurt Angle, and Stephanie McMahon wasn't brought up at all.

The match played out perfectly in the start. Triple H cornering Kurt Angle to prevent Ronda from coming in, Stephanie's cheap shots from behind, all just made the crowd yearn more for Ronda's entry.

When Kurt finally made the tag, the crowd went absolute bananas. The match shifted to the next gear from that moment. Inter-gender showdowns are very rare during this time, all the more reason the crowd ate it all up when Ronda Rousey and Triple H squared off.

It is both funny and sad that the best match on PPV so far has come from a match consisting of 3 part-timers and 1 non-wrestler. Hopefully, things can turn around during the latter half of the year and the wrestlers can put out memorable matches that they are capable of.
