10 Best Near Falls In WWE History

Best WWE kick-outs of all time

A wrestler leaving it to the very last moment to kick out of a big move sends electricity down your spine like few things else on planet Earth and WWE has provided plenty of memorable examples of this over the years. 

A lot goes into a good near fall - the move involved, the stakes of the match, the likelihood of it being the actual finish - and these 10 examples all nailed those traits to a tee. 

These are the 10 Best Near Falls in WWE History.

10. Seth Rollins vs. Roman Reigns - Royal Rumble 2022

Seth Rollins was taking on his former Shield BFF Roman Reigns for The Tribal Chief’s Universal Championship at Royal Rumble 2022. 

Rollins had done a great job at getting inside the head of the Head of the Table. His mind games made him one of the most believable challengers to Reigns in months, which might be why this extraordinary kick-out got such a great response. 

After countering a Spear, Rollins then laid out his adversary with a Buckle Bomb that transitioned directly into a Stomp. He then immediately made the cover, but the champion just about got his arm off the mat to prolong the contest.

In that one moment, we were all that redheaded fan with the beard.

A great moment from a great match, let’s choose to focus on this instead of that dumb DQ that came right at the end. We’ll all be happier for it.
