On the flipside of 'traditional wrestling matches', there are several others that break the mold & push the boundaries even further than before.

Both competitors were fully aware of their surroundings as Cena & Eddie incorporated their ideas as cleverly as possible. Eddie sprayed windshield wiper fluid into Cena's eyes and even burned him with a car cigarette lighter.

There was also good wrestling to be found. Eddie delivered a frog splash from the top of a minivan onto the hood of an adjacent vehicle where John Cena's carcass lay. A must-watch for every hardcore wrestling fan.

Rey Mysterio had to enter this battle with a troubling groin injury & his family was in attendance too. A rather odd entry into WWE's official list, as the injuries, even forced Rey to tone the fast-paced action a little bit.

While the ultimate underdog has been part of several astounding live TV matches, this particular contest ended with Mysterio winning the championship in nearly four years via a quick roll-up.


#7: John Cena vs. Shinsuke Nakamura- August 1, 2017

Ask any Professional Wrestling Fan In general- Shinsuke Nakamura vs. John Cena was always a "What If" alternate universe scenario until it actually happened right in front of our eyes during the 1st August 2017 edition of SmackDown Live.

Both of them kept it right to the point. The whole match was a highlight reel from start to finish, as both Cena & Nakamura gave all they had during the comparatively short time they were provided to work with.

The King Of Strong Style, Shinsuke Nakamura emerged victorious in the end nevertheless. This is a victory that people will always talk about for a long, long time.
