The Match That Will Define An Era.
When rumors started circulating a while back that Triple H would challenge The Undertaker at WrestleMania this year, I dismissed them almost completely, figuring that WWE would wait a while before booking such an epic match just a year after the second legendary confrontation between the Deadman and Shawn Michaels.

It’s a bad decision on WWE’s part to not mention the feud because it would have only added to the history, chemistry, and build-up of this second encounter. It was brutal, intense, and kept millions of fans worldwide at the edge of their seats.
