Rarely does WWE provide two awesome pay-per-views in a row but the year 2000 was a fantastic year for the then-WWF and Judgment Day 2000 was a tremendous event from start to finish. At Judgment Day 2000, Triple H faced his nemesis the Rock in an Iron Man match with Shawn Michaels as the special guest referee. While some people doubted Hunter and Rock's ability to put on an hour-long match, the results proved that both men were fully capable of a classic match. The match featured great psychology from both men and a few finishes that you don't see every day. A piledriver and a sleeper hold both got a fall for Triple H, forcing the Rock to fight from underneath. There was even a great spot where Hunter clobbered the Rock with a chair, earning a disqualification but then getting a pinfall on the unconscious Rocky. The Rock tied up the match 4-4 with two minutes to go and Hunter's heel stable rushed the ring. Shawn Michaels was bumped out to the floor and the heels commenced destroying the Rock. Then the Undertaker returned. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OzCSQR4C-qc The crowd went absolutely wild as Taker drove his motorcycle to the ring, debuting his American Badass look, and proceeded to chokeslam everything in sight. The time expired as Undertaker chokeslammed Triple H and the bell rang. Unfortunately for the Rock, Shawn Michaels recovered just in time to see the Undertaker attack Hunter and awarded the final fall to Triple H, allowing Hunter to reclaim the world title. While the ending was a downer at the time, it was a fantastic wrestling match from start to finish and featured a tremendously hot ending.
