2. Triple H Armageddon 03 to WrestleMania XX
Triple H held the World Heavyweight Championship for the majority of 2003, but due to dull battles with Scott Steiner, Booker T and Goldberg, the reign was entirely forgettable. When the
King of Kings regained the title at Armageddon he held on to it until the next WrestleMania and provided more great matches than he had done in his previous reign. The feud between Triple and Shawn Michaels had been one of the most heated and exciting since the return of HBK and the former DX partners shared one more matches at the Royal Rumble, when they drew in a wonderfully chaotic Last Man Standing match. At WrestleMania the belt was to be dropped to Chris Benoit. For all his critics, Triple H, as well as Shawn Michaels, did a wonderful job at making the
Crippler look not only like a true champion, but one of their level. They had an award-winning triple threat that is regarded among the best matches in wrestling history. When Benoit locked on the Crossface in the centre of the ring the crowd went wild, but that didnt compare to the reaction when Benoit lifted the title.
