50 Ups & 50 Downs For WWE's Decade: The 2010s
17. The Undertaker Vs Triple H, Super ShowDown 2018
A knackered tribute album of all the hits they used to be able to play, Triple H and The Undertaker's Super Show-Down headliner might have provided a brand new decades-old spectacle for a star-starved Australian audience, but the central theme of paying homage to prior classics was just one of several fatal flaws.
Undertaker decked referees as he was prone to doing when he feuded with the original version of DX decades earlier. 'The Deadman' had the same slackened jaw from his WrestleMania 25 epic with Shawn Michaels when Hunter kicked out of the Tombstone, but he was grasping at straws rather gasping for breath. The pair fought through the crowd as they did at WrestleMania X7 - though this match was as inferior a comparison to that spirited brawl as the Melbourne Cricket Ground lawn furniture was to the priceless padded chairs from the Houston Astrodome.
Whilst invoking echoes of their most profitable period, WWE shamelessly delivered something as ponderous as the weathered WCW main events they once derided.
