WWE: Top 10 Title Unifications In Modern Wrestling

4. HHH Defeats Kane To Unify The World Title And The Intercontinental Title. (No Mercy, October 2002).

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hLt5dFB__G4 OK, so remember how HHH was going to get the UBER-UNIFIED Intercontinental title in 2002 and decided he'd rather have his own World title to play with instead? Well, apparently even having that IC belt around was enough to threaten him, so in October he took his newly won World title and added the Intercontinental title to it to create the SUPER-MEGA-UNIFIED World title so that everyone would gawk unabashedly at him when he entered with his jean jacket-leather jacket combination and awe at the wrestling history dripping from the outfits that Stephanie dressed him in and presumably would go "Holy cow, that HHH, he's a manly man who obviously is packing a bazooka down there." Just in case we didn't know to make that comparison, he made it for us years later on RAW. So yeah, after months of merging all the titles into the IC title, they just got rid of it, because who cares about the IC title when HHH is around? NOT ME. Oh yeah, they brought it back, like, six months later, because it's so much TROUBLE to book people on the undercard without a secondary title to use as a crutch. But we'll always remember that special time when HHH was the manliest man with the titles all to himself. And also, Kane's mask. Because HHH. Match Quality: Are you not LISTENING? It's HHH! Match quality is secondary to how IMPORTANT he is! HAVEN'T YOU SEEN HIS JEAN JACKET? Motorhead plays his theme! Several of them! Star ratings for are for internet geeks who worship CM Punk, not real men who would rather be at bodybuilding competitions. Christ. Long-term Significance: Every HHH match is as significant and important as the last one. Maybe more so.
