Guest BobBacklundRules Posted June 27, 2004 Report Posted June 27, 2004 I started this thread because at the moment I can’t think of any good HHH matches that weren’t gimmicked. The only match that comes to mind is the “Special night in Greenville”, and that was just because he bumped crazy for Flair. All other “big” matches have had some special stipulation.
Guest Ray Posted June 27, 2004 Report Posted June 27, 2004 I can’t think of any good HHH matches that weren’t gimmicked. vs. Shawn Michaels - Raw 5/96.
TheOriginalOrangeGoblin Posted June 27, 2004 Report Posted June 27, 2004 vs Shawn Michaels on Raw, 12/29/03 is one that comes to mind. Ummm...actually it's the only one that comes to mind. HHH vs Benoit on No Mercy I guess and maybe HHH vs Jericoh in the phantom match.
Guest Ray Posted June 27, 2004 Report Posted June 27, 2004 Also, I don't believe Austin/HHH vs Benoit/Jericho - Raw 5/21/01 had any stips...
Aero Posted June 27, 2004 Report Posted June 27, 2004 HHH vs. Mankind (Canadian Stampede) HHH vs. Owen Hart (WM XIV) I've heard HHH vs. Dude Love from One Night Only is really good, but I've never seen it.
NYU Posted June 27, 2004 Report Posted June 27, 2004 Vs. Goldberg - Survivor Series 2003 That match was terrible. His matches with the Rock at Backlash 2000 and Judgment Day 2000 (I don't know if the Iron Man Match should really be considered gimmicked....) were actually very good.
Lil' Bitch Posted June 27, 2004 Report Posted June 27, 2004 That match was terrible. It was tons better than Unforgiven.
Australian Pride Posted June 27, 2004 Report Posted June 27, 2004 His match with the Undertaker at WM17 was good (but not great).
TheOriginalOrangeGoblin Posted June 27, 2004 Report Posted June 27, 2004 Vs. Goldberg - Survivor Series 2003 That match was terrible. His matches with the Rock at Backlash 2000 and Judgment Day 2000 (I don't know if the Iron Man Match should really be considered gimmicked....) were actually very good. I consider Backlash gimmicked with the McMahon stuff.

The only match that comes to mind is the “Special night in Greenville”, and that was just because he bumped crazy for Flair. All other “big” matches have had some special stipulation. Non-Gimmicked matches ONLY: vs. Chris Benoit - No Mercy 2000 vs. TAKA on RAW vs. Shawn Michaels - 12/29/03 vs. Chris Jericho - RAW in 2000 vs. Chris Jericho - WM X-8 with SCSA vs. Benoit/Jericho ANY six man tag or eight man tag with Evolution. vs. The Rock on the first SD!
Guest TheZsaszHorsemen Posted June 27, 2004 Report Posted June 27, 2004 Oh, and he was in an awesome Eight-Man Tag on the RAW before SS '02.
Guest Rrrsh Posted June 27, 2004 Report Posted June 27, 2004 Well, the 3 way, easy, Unless a 3 way is considered a gimmick (or was it no DQ?) Him/SCSA v. Canadians is #1 if the Three Way does not count. For singles only, HBK late last year.
Guest news_gimmick Posted June 28, 2004 Report Posted June 28, 2004 Heh, I've always been a fan of his match X-Pac at Backlahs 1999.
Guest Choken One Posted June 28, 2004 Report Posted June 28, 2004 I recall a **** tag match with Xpac and Kane with Chyna... or some combonation of those four.
Guest news_gimmick Posted June 28, 2004 Report Posted June 28, 2004 That would be Kane/Chyna vs. Triple H/ X-Pac at the St. Valentines Day Massacre in Feb. 1999 during Kanes slave period with the corporation. Not a bad match at all.
KTID Posted June 28, 2004 Report Posted June 28, 2004 Got to be this years mania main event, i do believe.
Papacita Posted June 29, 2004 Report Posted June 29, 2004 I can’t think of any good HHH matches that weren’t gimmicked. vs. Shawn Michaels - Raw 5/96. Honestly, that was the first match that popped into my head when I clicked this thread. I remember loving it when I was younger. It's been a while since I've actually sat down and watched it though. I'm one of the few people that actually liked HHH/RVD from Unforgiven 02.

Honestly, that was the first match that popped into my head when I clicked this thread. I remember loving it when I was younger. It's been a while since I've actually sat down and watched it though. It's well worth a re-watch. I honestly think it's a forgotten classic. It has some really, really good roleplaying and focused storytelling.
TheDevilAndGodAreRagingInsideMe Posted July 1, 2004 Report Posted July 1, 2004 vs. The Rock on the first SD! Isn't guest referee a gimmick match?
Toshiaki Koala Posted July 1, 2004 Report Posted July 1, 2004 vs. Cactus Jack at Rumble 00 wasn't gimmicked, was it?
King Cucaracha Posted July 1, 2004 Report Posted July 1, 2004 vs. Cactus Jack at Rumble 00 wasn't gimmicked, was it? Streetfight.
Use Your Illusion Posted July 1, 2004 Report Posted July 1, 2004 *ANY* decent match involving Mick Foley is usually gimmicked in some way.
strummer Posted July 2, 2004 Report Posted July 2, 2004 I think his match v Mero at Beware of Dog 96 is really underrated. I remember it being pretty damn good.
Guest SoZe Posted July 3, 2004 Report Posted July 3, 2004 I'll have to confess that I haven't seen the tag match againt Jericho and Benoit since it aired, so I'll have to say his match with Michaels last December. I really like that match, and the commercial break is perfectly set up so you don;t miss two much. Feels like a PPV match, if you edit out the commercials. Good stuff.
natey2k4 Posted July 6, 2004 Report Posted July 6, 2004 Versus Shamrock on RAW sometime was rather decent. Not a classic, but not horrible.
