1. Triple H vs. Shawn Michaels vs. Chris Benoit (WWE WrestleMania XX)
Each pro wrestling fan will have their own opinion over which match is better, the Triple Threat at Backlash 2004 or the original at WrestleMania XX. There's just something so perfect about the 'Mania bout, it evokes a feeling of real satisfaction. Everything is spot on, from the pacing and sequences of heightened drama right up to the remarkable finish. Chris Benoit's legacy has been affected by what happened at the end of his life, without question, but it's unfair to ignore the part he played in making this match special. At the time, fans really wanted to see him succeed, after years of toiling without full recognition. One of the greatest wrestlers in the world, Benoit deserved this moment. And what a moment it was, beating both Triple H and Shawn Michaels on the biggest platform Vince McMahon can provide. A post-match embrace with Eddie Guerrero may not be part of the actual match in question, but it only added to the overall atmosphere. The main event of 'Mania XX is a match like no other, and one of the absolute best Triple Threat matches in wrestling history. Some fans may prefer the Backlash bout, but WrestleMania is the biggest show of the year. Having a match like this to close it out proves that. What other Triple Threat matches are your favourites?
