Shawn Michaels vs. Kurt Angle
(WrestleMania 21) 
2nd Place:
Samoa Joe vs. AJ Styles
(TNA Turning Point) 3rd Place: Shawn Michaels vs. Shelton Benjamin (WWE Raw) Reader Comments: "The rematch was also brilliant, but the way Michaels sold the Anklelock before finally tapping out was theatre at its best. I was marking out big-time. Oh the shame." - Craig Elder "This match was just amazing, from the top rope Angle Slam, to Shawn's five minutes of being in the anklelock before he tapped. Those two told a story, not just wrestled, but made us want even more and had fans tired at the end." - Adam Airforce "I can't even remember how many times I watched this match. I waited for it to happen for years. I wasn't disappointed when I saw it." - Christine Chasen And now... 2005 Insanity Staff's Choice for Match of the Year...
Joe vs. Kobashi
(Ring of Honor - 10/1/05)
2nd Place:
AJ Styles vs. Samoa Joe
(TNA Turning Point) 3rd Place: Money in the Bank Ladder Match (WrestleMania) Staff Comments: "Two of the best heavyweights in the world colliding in the hardest-hitting US match in ages. The match was greatly enhanced by a smart crowd that was nothing short of rabid for Kobashi and the match." - Mallory Mahling "Joe-Kobashi was one of the few matches that could really hold my attention in the last year. The atmosphere coupled with the in-ring ability of both men really made for something special. There were some other good matches this year, but this one was the clear winner in my book." - James Guttman "Coke Ma-Chine! Coke Ma-Chine! Hell's yeah." - Crazy Uncle Ralph © Copyright by WorldWrestlingInsanity.com WorldWrestlingInsanity.com is not
