Gunther holding his King of the Ring crown
"Wrestling is cool again," said Dwayne 'The Rock' Johnson as he geared up for his first WrestleMania match in twelve long years. Make no mistake about it, this is the hottest, most consistent, and most enjoyable that WWE has been in decades, with a real argument for this being the best form and state that the company has ever been in. The roster is stacked, which has led to an eye-watering amount of phenomenal in-ring action, and we are only at the year's halfway stage.
2 10 Axiom and Nathan Frazer vs The Wolfdogs - NXT Tag Team Titles Matches NXT, April 9th Be it celebrating the newly crowned champions or saluting what was an astonishingly likable pairing between a superstar rediscovering his mojo and another for whom there is seemingly no ceiling, this NXT Stand And Deliver rematch was a really satisfying clash of styles.
8 Iyo Sky vs Bayley Wrestlemania XL, Night Two Nobody is handing out a Nobel Peace Prize for the revelation that bullies are bad but, in the WWE, they make for the best kind of villains.

In what is only their second-ever singles encounter, the one-man wrecking crew that is Bron Breakker, and the Russian Mad Dragon, Ilja Dragunov, had the kind of hard-hitting, physically intense encounter that could make a punchbag wince.
Becky and Rhea's only other singles contest resulted in a No Contest draw on the 500th episode of NXT. 3 Cody Rhodes vs AJ Styles - WWE Undisputed Championship Match WWE Backlash, May 4th One of the truest statements about pro wrestling is that it takes more than just good chemistry and cool moves to make a great match. In this case, the crowd provided a sense of occasion that the build-up to Backash in Lyon, France hadn't quite managed to create for the newly crowned WWE Champion Cody Rhodes and the Phenomenal AJ Styles.
