In terms of actual story-telling, I would say Punk/Lesnar was the best match I have seen this year. KB's review summed up my feelings about it pretty well. The smart, resourceful Punk kept the monster off balance throughout the match and had him reeling, only for his emotions to get the better of him in the end and once Lesnar, the beast that he is, got hold of a weapon and was able to use it, it was game over. I also think that for one of the few times in recent memory, the commentary helped the story too.
Cena/Punk relied a bit more on their freakish chemistry and the prize for the winner.
In terms of story, I would put Sami Zayn's matches with the Real Americans high on the list as Zayn himself plays and sells the small but brave competitor so well.
