With 2017 just in the books, it’s time to look at what WWE gave us. While there were some rough points in the WWE this year (think Jinder Mahal’s championship run), it is unfair to say that we didn’t see some amazing matches. This list will be focusing on the best matches from NXT, Smackdown LIVE, and RAW from 2017. Each match was graded based on in-ring action and storytelling. So, lets dive into the matches that made it worth being a WWE fan in 2017.
