To pay tribute to one of the greatest of these business, I've decided to create a poll on what is his best match among all his classics according to you!

Tough call. It's between RR 2000 and SummerSlam 2002. I went with Rumble, but damn.

This is gonna be a weird choice:
Other - HHH vs Taka Michinoku, Monday Night RAW, 2000
HHH was WWF champion. Taka was a lightweight in a company that hates lightweights, and by this point, one half of a comedy jobber tag team. Obviously, HHH would win this easily, right? Everyone who heard this match announced knew HHH would win. It's only logical. It's like if WWE today announced a championship match between Roman Reigns and Akira Tozawa. It's a no-brainer, right? Right!
Except...
The match itself was so well performed, so competitive, and yes, so overbooked, that for a few minutes, viewers forgot logic, forgot wrestling politics, forgot lightweight jobber status, and actually believed, really believed, that Taka could win. When it was over, when HHH scored the pin, everybody snapped back to reality and said, "Well, duh! Of course Triple H won that!" But the few minutes before that, man, that was f***ing magic.

Personal favorite has got to go to Vs HBK at SummerSlam.
When you look back at it, the son of a bitch was in a lot of great matches.

Judgment Day 2000. It proved that Triple H was on Shawn Michaels level, and deserved his main event spot.

Probably a tie between the Three Stages of Hell match with Austin and the opener with Daniel Bryan at Mania 30.

Tough call between the No Way 2000 HIAC against Foley or his match against The Rock at Judgment Day 2000. Both matches were amazing. I went with Trips against Foley. It was a very hard call on this. I do like when The Rock gets humiliated and Trips did that in spades at Judgment Day 2000, but that HIAC was just great as far as the story leading up to it.

My favourite is not up there - vs Rock at Backlash 2000. Card subject to change.

The RAW match (At least I think it was RAW?) with Cactus Jack.

A wild card Triple H match favorite of mine was him vs Eddie Guerrero for the title in Raw.

Foley at RR 2000 but the Iron Man with Rock at Backlash 2000 was unbelievable.

I unironically love the random blindfold match with D'Lo Brown on some Raw in like 2002 or whenever.
But the street fight or Backlash in 2000 is trips at his absolute best. Dude was in intial Roman Reigns-esq God Mode during this time, it was later he became intolerable

I'd say it's a toss-up between the Backlash 2000 match with Rock and the Summerslam 2002 with Shawn.

Backlash 2000 with Rocky. Sure it was an overbooked mess, but it is the pinnacle of overbooked messes.
