All 15 Undertaker/Triple H WWE Matches: Ranked From Worst To Best
2. WrestleMania XXVII
After 'The Deadman' turned in the two best matches of his career with Shawn Michaels at back-to-back WrestleManias, the pressure was on for Triple H to deliver as he became The Undertaker's next opponent at the Showcase of The Immortals. Seeking to avenge Michaels' retirement, 'The Game' stood up to end 'Taker's undefeated streak, vowing to put the legend down for good.
Despite the pressure, the stacked card and the fact that both men were in the twilight of their careers, 'Taker and Triple H produced an absolute barn burner. In a match that was enhanced by the No Holds Barred stipulation, the ageing gladiators threw everything they had at each other - from vicious strikes to perfectly-timed finishers - and the crowd ate up every single moment.
Furthermore, the storytelling here was an absolute work of art. Triple H was the barbaric warrior strong enough to defeat the immortal 'Deadman', but all he could do was marvel at the battered veteran's refusal to stay down. Meanwhile, that battered veteran defeated his worthy adversary from his back with the Hell's Gate, and his inability to leave the arena set the stage for their even grander clash the following year.
WrestleMania XXVII may have gone down in history as one of the worst WrestleManias of all time, but the two veterans managed to save it from becoming a complete waste - outperforming every last one of their younger peers to produce a classic for the ages.
