Let's face it, anybody can talk smack over an invisible wall.

0:04.7

Very few people make you want to run through a brick wall just to see them fight.

0:10.1

But this lot did thanks to the absolutely fantastic modern wrestling angles they were all involved in.

0:17.8

I am Gareth, this is What Culture Wrestling?

0:20.4

And here are the 15 greatest

0:22.3

angles in modern wrestling history. Let's get to it. Number 15, the ending of AW Dynamite

episode number one. The premiere of AW Dynamite was very important, folks. Tony Khan had to achieve a
