#2 The Undertaker's top rival - Triple H
Talking about The Undertaker's greatest opponents of all time, Triple H comes to the mind instantly as well. Being the only guy to have taken on The Undertaker at WrestleMania on three occasions, Triple H is one of his best friends behind the scenes - with the two sharing a lot of mutual respect.
Triple H had the following to say about his relationship with The Undertaker during a recent interview -
"We have a close relationship that I think was built on mutual respect for each other, but also I think we have a lot in common from a human being standpoint, the way we look at things, the way we approach things. I think there is also an understanding of, we were, it sounds cliche, a slightly different generation of performer. I think that we just had that same mentality of stuff at kind of a moment in time over the past five years, or so it feels like, we have been going through the same, to a degree, some of the same doubts and fears and anxiousness and nervousness around our careers and how do you get to the end. We’ve shared a lot of that. We’ve shared a lot of time in the ring. We shared a lot of time together outside the ring and I just think there’s a lot of respect there."
No one can forget the iconic moment after The Undertaker vs Triple H Hell in a Cell match where the two of them and Shawn Michaels embraced each other on the top of the ramp. Just for the sake of that moment, Triple H and Shawn Michaels are both ideal choices to induct The Undertaker into the WWE Hall of Fame.
