Number 9: Triple H vs. The Rock at SummerSlam 1998
Madison Square Garden held two of the brightest superstars inside the ring for a Ladder match. The prize was the coveted WWE Intercontinental Championship. AC/DC’s Highway to Hell was the theme song for the night headlined by Stone Cold and The Undertaker. With this match, Triple H and The Rock were physical and beat each other down from the very beginning. They put so much strength into every move. Rock would finally get an assist from Mark Henry, but it was Chyna that hit a low blow to give Triple H the victory. Two leaders of the two biggest stables in WWE history battled and left all ounce of sweat on the mat. This will go down as the last real mid card match for both guys. A few months later saw The Rock win the WWE Championship at Survivor Series, while it took only a year for Triple H to reign supreme.
