7. Point/Look At The WrestleMania Sign (Triple H - WrestleMania XXVII)
As evidenced by the 'Crow' gimmick of Sting, sometimes saying nothing at all can get the message across in the loudest fashion possible. A hallmark of Sting's current incarnation is that he doesn't say much, if anything, and instead uses actions to put his point forward. In 2011, Triple H used exactly the same tactics, confronting The Undertaker, standing directly in front of him and then staring straight at the huge WrestleMania XXVII sign on Monday Night Raw. It made for a cool segment, and fans were left with no doubts over what The Game was hoping to achieve - calling out 'Taker for a match, Triple H didn't really need to say much during that initial confrontation to make it memorable. Both men would go on to have two stellar matches on consecutive WrestleMania supercards, and whilst the Hell In A Cell encounter at 'Mania XXVIII would leave the longest lasting impression, the very first portion of their feud was excellently done. The rivalry started with a bang, and instantly felt like a big deal, which is exactly how it should be when two stars the size of Triple H and The Undertaker are involved.
