5 times Batista has owned Triple H in WWE history

#2 A Hattrick of wins

The full stop on Batista's launch to stardom

Nothing says owned like three wins in a row for the Animal against the Game. Batista in his star-making turn went on a rampage against his then manipulative friend and mentor, alongside Ric Flair. Batista after shooting through the hoops and tricks of The Game, rattled him and stole his championship in the main event of WrestleMania 21.

After this, he easily owned Triple H at Backlash, before putting the last stamp on their rivalry in Triple H's special match type, Hell in a Cell. This was the first loss for the Cerebral Assassin inside a structure he had dominated. This is the last time the two would ever meet in singles competition, often found on the same side since then either as faces or heels.

The intriguing thing to note is that the few times they did nearly come to conflict, Triple H has backed off. Even as Batista sought to get his due or walk out of WWE, Triple H tried his level best to make him see the bigger picture.

If it were Randy Orton on the other end, The Game might not have been as accommodating. Thus showcasing the psychological toll it took on his ego, being felled by his protegé whom he never saw coming.
