#7 Undertaker vs. The Rock vs. Kurt Angle in a Triple Threat Match for the WWE Undisputed Championship (Vengeance 2002)

There is an argument to include the underrated No Way Out 2006 match between Undertaker and Kurt Angle on this list. The two competitors traded a submission meets MMA battle that was brilliant at that event. However, the magic that they created alongside The Rock at Vengeance 2002 has to be talked about on any list of classics in The Deadman's career.

In the buildup to this Triple Threat Match, The Rock returned to the promotion after Stone Cold's departure from the company and set his sights on the WWE Undisputed Championship. The champion at the time was The Undertaker who was fighting off challenges on both RAW and SmackDown like the aforementioned Ladder Match against Jeff Hardy.

The Rock had gotten involved in Taker's defense against Triple H at King of the Ring 2002. However, with The Game out via injury, another former champion stepped in to create a compelling three-way. Undertaker and Kurt Angle battled on SmackDown weeks before Vengeance and went to a no-contest with Taker tapping out to a triangle choke, while Angle was pinned.

This Triple Threat was high octane with each competitor delivering non-stop action for over 20-plus minutes. The blend of Taker's hard-hitting strikes, Angle's technical wrestling, and The Rock's charismatic bravado made for a truly exceptional main event at this event. It was The Rock who was victorious winning the WWE Championship for the sixth time.

Not only is Vengeance 2002 deserving of being one of the greatest bouts of the Undertaker's legendary career, but it is also viewed by many as the best Triple Threat Match in WWE history.
