At Judgment Day 2000, Triple H and The Rock faced each other in a 60-Minute Iron Man match for the coveted Championship. In the end, the numbers game caught up to The Rock, but a returning Undertaker saved The People’s Champion.

However, the referee disqualified The Rock, and the subsequent DQ resulted in Triple H winning the Championship!
Just 24 hours later, Triple H once again ambushed ‘The Great One’, with the McMahons and D-Generation X going after the Brahma Bull. This led to The Undertaker making his RAW return, as the American Badass chased the McMahons and the members of D - Generation X to the back.
Triple H tried to Pedigree The Rock on top of the steel steps, but the plan backfired. Triple H then tried to Pedigree Rock through the announce table, but ‘The Most Electrifying Man in Sports Entertainment’ turned things around, and Rock Bottom’ed Triple H through the table!
The fall out of Judgment Day saw RAW doing a 7.1 rating, with The Undertaker finally making his return to Monday nights.
