Bad Bunny Cracks The Top 10 Of WWE’s Best 25 Matches Of 2021, Edge vs. Rollins Gets The Top Spot

Bad Bunny left an indelible mark on the WWE Universe.

2021 is coming to a close and as they do every year, WWE has compiled a list of the best matches of the Year. This year, it is a list of 25 matches that feature some of the top names and all of WWE and some standout performances in a year that saw WWE return to touring following the emergence of the global pandemic in 2020.

Bad Bunny, a worldwide celebrity. made his WWE in-ring debut at WrestleMania, successfully defeating The Miz and John Morrison alongside Damian Priest. That WrestleMania tag team match landed the number 10 spot.

From WWE:

Es un rey, campeón, Bad Bunny. Spotify’s most-streamed artist in the world two years running brought his talents to the WWE ring on Night 1 of WrestleMania 37, and he was unforgettable. Most of the WWE Universe might have expected his tag team partner, Damian Priest, to do the heavy lifting in their match against The Miz & John Morrison, but Bunny was quick to silence any doubters by fully mixing it up with his opponents and living out a childhood dream.

His offense was damn near flawless, from his flying crossbody off the top rope to his still awe-inspiring “Bunny Destroyer,” to the decisive double-team maneuver that sealed the victory. Bad Bunny put in the work to become a WWE Superstar, and it paid off massively as he and Priest were able to provide us with a WrestleMania moment that will live forever.

The list was topped by the Hell in a Cell match between Edge and Seth Rollins at WWE Crown Jewel. Edge and Rollins also had their SummerSlam match on the list.

From WWE:

The monthslong rivalry between Edge and Seth “Freakin” Rollins could only culminate one way, and that was inside Hell in a Cell. After their first two stellar matchups at SummerSlam and Madison Square Garden, the stage was set for The Rated-R Superstar and The Visionary to finally settle the score at WWE Crown Jewel, and they did in the absolute best way possible.

As soon as Edge sent Rollins flying off the top rope, bouncing him off the cell wall and through a table, you knew this match was going to hit different. The intensity only grew from there, as they used everything from steel chairs and stairs to chains and ladders to inflict their damage. When Edge so fittingly hit that final Stomp to put Rollins away, the WWE Universe just collectively knew that was it. That was THE match of 2021.

Seth Rollins has the most matches on the list, except for one other undeniable performer. Roman Reigns and Seth Rollins are tired with five matches on the list.
