#5 The Undertaker Vs. Triple H - WrestleMania 28 (2012)

This truly was the end of an era

While this may not be the Undertaker's best WrestleMania match till date, the hype surrounding the bout was intriguing enough to exceed expectations. The match involved two of the greatest competitors in WWE history going on a collision course, with a Show-Stopper taking charge of the bout.

Contested inside a Hell in a Cell, the match took the WWE Universe on a journey of nostalgia, as the three most influential performers were locked inside, vowing to prove their dominance.

Considering it was built as an End of an Era, the near-falls that transpired during the match electrified the crowd. The feud was built around the emotional journey of these three superstars who have been interlinked since the Attitude Era.

The moment where the Undertaker kicked out of a decimating combination of a Pedigree and Sweet Chin Music was a work of pure genius. The match exceeded expectations and increased the Phenom's streak to 20-0. However, the ending of the bout created a memorable WrestleMania moment where all the three superstars embraced each other's hard-work and hugged it out to call it a day.

The match truly was the end of an era. The sold-out crowd that night witnessed history and lost themselves on the street of nostalgia by witnessing this epic bout.

#4 The Undertaker Vs. Shawn Michaels - Bad Blood (1997)

Talk about storytelling

The first-ever Hell in a Cell match was perhaps the best Hell in a Cell match of all time. The bout involved two of the most talented superstars in the shape of their lives, locking horns with the aim of completely dismantling each other's careers.

The Undertaker's feud with Shawn Michaels heading into Bad Blood in 1997 was a brilliant one and displayed the Phenom's agility to hang around with the best in the business.

Both the superstars were in their prime and went head-to-head for almost 30 minutes. The Phenom completely decimated Shawn Michaels and left him begging for mercy.

With the bout having serious implications to decide the No. 1 Contender for the WWF World Heavyweight Championship at Survivor Series, both the superstars gave everything they had to this barbaric encounter.

The event was a starting point in WWF's Attitude Era, and the match still remains a classic not only because of the in-ring greatness but also because it marked the debut of another legend, Kane.

Kane stormed through the darkness with Paul Bearer and broke the cage's door to destroy his half-brother. The match still remains a highlight in Undertaker's career.

#3 The Undertaker Vs. Mankind- King of the Ring (1998)

Probably the most famous match of all time

Since it's inception in 1997, there have been about 37 Hell in a Cell matches within the company, but none of them has been as famous as this classic from King of the Ring in 1998.

The Undertaker Vs. Mankind at King of the Ring is perhaps the most famous match in professional wrestling history, particularly due to moments that will last forever.

Less than two minutes into the contest and the Phenom threw Mankind off the top of the cell, leaving the whole arena in awe and discomfort. Mick Foley's incredible sacrifice to deliver something exceptional with the Deadman worked, and remains a career highlight in both of their careers'.

The bout contained some of the most insane executions by both superstars, with Undertaker hell-bent on ending Mankind's life.

Considering how incredibly well these two interacted, the feud between the two did not get the acknowledgement it deserves. However, everything that transpired during the encounter left the whole 18,000 fans in-attendance in shock and disbelief.

Whether WWE publicly agrees on this or not, this has to be the most famous Undertaker match of all time, and he owes it all to Mankind.

#2 The Undertaker Vs. Shawn Michaels - WrestleMania 25, 2009

The Greatest WrestleMania match of all time

In what is the greatest WrestleMania match of all time, the Undertaker defeated Shawn Michaels in front of a sold-out crowd of 72,000 fans.

Considering that the company was celebrating the 25th Anniversary of its flagship event WrestleMania, WWE's top two guys delivered a classic to remember.

Shawn Michaels' willingness to defy the odds and break the streak made for some intriguing storytelling and the Show-Stopper left everything on the line.

Every HBK-Taker encounter has produced some of the finest moments in wrestling, with their match in Houston, Texas being a technical masterpiece.

Both the superstars went toe-to-toe, with Michaels having an answer to every move put forward by the Phenom.

There were moments in the match which left you surprised and shocked. While a lot of the fans do like the sequel to this bout at WrestleMania 26 which led to the end of HBK's career, this bout struck a chord with the pure wrestling fans.

Undertaker Vs. Shawn Michaels will go down in history as one of the greatest rivalries of all time.

#1 The Undertaker Vs. Brock Lesnar - WrestleMania 30, 2014

A match that shocked the entire industry

While this may be one of the worst Undertaker matches of all time, but its importance in WWE's history cannot be denied.

Brock Lesnar Vs. The Undertaker at WrestleMania 30 in New Orleans led to the end of the streak, a streak that defined the greatness of the Phenom.

The Undertaker's 21-year legacy came to an end at the hands of the Beast Incarnate which catapulted Lesnar to an elite position in the company's history.

While the decision was heavily criticized, with the fans developing conspiracy theories, Vince McMahon defended his ideology and acknowledged Undertaker's willingness to give back to the business.

In what was a lacklustre bout, the Undertaker was reported to have suffered a concussion during the match resulting in a poor performance.

Since all the other Undertaker bouts had a story to support the feud, the conclusion of this bout will forever remain monumental whenever the Phenom's legacy will be the debate of discussion.
