WWE: Ranking Undertaker's 21 WrestleMania Victories Worst To Best

7. Triple H, WrestleMania XXVII

It takes two extremely talented individuals to set up a major wrestling match without uttering a word. Undertaker and Triple H proved to be those individuals when they met in the center of the ring on the February 21, 2011 episode of Monday Night Raw. They stared one another down, then looked up at the WrestleMania XXVII sign. Undertaker seemed unimpressed with Triple H's presentation and began to walk away. Then he saw the Game execute a crotch chop and answered with his trademark throat slash gesture. With a few facial expressions and some gesturing, Undertaker and Triple H agreed to the most anticipated match on that year's card. Throw in some expert storytelling from both Superstars and a returning Shawn Michaels and fans had every reason to be pumped up for the clash of grizzled veterans. Though he controlled the pace early in the bout, Undertaker found himself on the defensive for the remainder of the match, especially after suffering a spinebuster through the announce table. Triple H used both traditional wrestling moves and weapons, such as steel chairs and his trusty sledgehammer, to wear down the Undertaker in hopes of becoming that one man that could claim to have beaten the Dead Man at WrestleMania. He repeatedly yelled, "stay down" as he grew frustrated with Undertaker's resiliency. At one point, the Phenom grabbed hold of Triple H's throat but the Game simply shook his head and removed his hand. A Tombstone from Triple H appeared to be a poetic end for the Dead Man's streak but he continued to show guts and determination by kicking out. Undertaker eventually caught Triple H in Hell's Gate and forced a submission, despite every attempt by the Cerebral Assassin to grab hold of his sledgehammer and use it to break the hold. The match was almost all story and with two veterans of the in-ring wars such as Undertaker and Triple H telling said story, it worked splendidly. Triple H beat Undertaker to the brink and on several occasions, appeared to have his number. But Undertaker capitalized on one opening and was able to leave Atlanta with his streak intact. The post-match angle, which saw the Dead Man wheeled out of the arena while Triple H was able to walk on his own only helped further sell how much damage the Game had done to his opponent and, at the same time, set up the following year's rematch.
