5 Best Undertaker vs Triple H matches

#3 No Holds Barred Match (WrestleMania XXVII)

Well, this is where things take an interesting turn. I know I might get some flanking for choosing the next match ahead of this one, but I have my own reason for placing it below the next one.

This was the second of the three WrestleMania matches that these two stalwarts had over a period of 11 years and was one of the most jaw-dropping matches of the year, maybe even this decade.

Even then, the match ranks as the weakest among the prestigious trilogy of matches that they shared.

With a lot of the build-up revolving around Triple H's obsession with revenging Shawn Michaels defeat from a year ago, the animosity and buzz for this match for way, way more than any other match on a loaded WrestleMania XXVII card. The added stipulation of No Holds Barred ensured that the action won't just be reduced to the inside of ring.

As the sole bright spot on an overall disappointing Mania, this match saved the show from ending up as the worst edition in the history.

With a ton of emotions and drama, the two wrestled a near half-hour classic that had a whole bunch of chair shots, finisher reversals, stolen finishers and a magnificent announcer table spot. You'd be lying if you didn't have goosebumps when Taker kicked out of Triple H's Tombstone Piledriver.

Taker's victory, and the aftermath of the match, where he collapsed at ringside, laid the foundation of a sequel a year later.
