#4 Triple H vs. The Rock- SummerSlam 1998
This match found both the wrestlers in their transition periods. The Rock was leading The Nation of Domination, while Triple H was the boss of DX.
The match featured The Rock's breakout performance. He defended his title at SummerSlam and the fans showed their appreciation, showering praise on him with chants of "Rocky". But despite a knee injury and eyes full of powder, Triple H scaled the rungs of the ladder and retrieved the intercontinental title.
It was a watershed moment for him, he demonstrated that he could also be an incredibly effective hero when it was needed. The involvement of Chyna and Mark Henry also played right into the story that helped to enhance the match as a whole.
