Show of the year was WrestleMania XXIV. Runner up was Armageddon-almost
all quality matches, I'm talking to you Rey Mysterio vs. CM Punk, with a
great finish.

It's so easy to say that Wrestlemania XXIV was the event of the year, but
really it was the spectacle of the whole event that was memorable, save for
HBK/Flair and MITB. If I had to pick one event from this past year, it's No
Mercy because both main events were superb.

Wrestlemania but some notable mention should go to Tna's November ppv(Final
Resolution?)it had a show Stealing match (Abyss Vs Angle) along with a
shockingly good Nash Vs Joe match as well as a terrific Beer Money Vs MCMG
match. Sting Vs Sting was somewhat disapointing but still pretty good.

I think few would argue that Wrestlemania XXIV was the greatest wrestling
event of the year.
