WWE: 10 Best Raw Matches Of All Time

6. No DQ Falls Count Anywhere: Triple H vs Cactus Jack (September 22nd, 1997)

Whilst Triple H himself might argue that he danced his best dance inside the ring with his longtime friend Shawn Michaels, in reality no-one played the game as well as Mick Foley. With his rough, hardfelt bumps, Foley always acted as the perfect punching bag for Hunter's aggression and Trips's dramatic selling was perfectly in sync with Mick's hard brawling style. This Raw match-up from 1997, witnessed Foley's hardcore loving persona Cactus Jack immediately introduce Triple H's head to a garbage can and the carnage only continued from there as the two rivals fought inside the ring, outside the ring, into the crowd and backstage. Standout spots throughout the bout included Foley's over the rope double tumble clothesline which he followed up with his signature bang bang finger gesture, Foley reappearing from the curtain to spray Hunter with an extinguisher before firing him into a collapsing barricade, and Trips accidentally throwing Foley into a persistently interfering Chyna, upon which they both tumbled together into the steel steps. The best was saved till last however as Triple H laid out a table near the ramp, only to for Foley to capitalise by sending his opponent crashing through the structure by way of a thunderous piledriver. With fun spots, great chemistry and realistic selling this one stood out as s truly superb tv hardcore match.
