8) DIY vs The Revival
NXT Takeover Brooklyn II
An incredible match took place at NXT Takeover Brooklyn II for the NXT Tag Team Titles. Johnny Gargano and Tommaso Ciampa (DIY) took on the Revival and tore the roof off the building. The match was a tag team clinic that was the best match of the night.
The Revival ended up retaining their titles after Dawson forced Gargano to submit. This match was a prime example of how good old fashioned tag team wrestling can steal the show on any given night if done correctly.
The match received a 4.5/5 star rating from Dave Meltzer of the Wrestling Observer.

I like this list. My only change would be to switch out the Raw vs. SmackDown match at Survivor Series for the Triple Threat Women’s Title match at WrestleMania. Keep up the great work!
