3. The Two-Man Power Trip (Triple H & Steve Austin) vs Undertaker & Kane – Backlash 2001

Arguably the most stacked tag team contest that the WWE has ever put on paper, at least in terms of the gold that was at stake for these two teams. 2001 was the turning point of the wrestling business, while many have mixed feelings regarding the likes of Steve Austin’s infamous heel turn, it wasn’t without its positives.

Placing 4 men with the star-power and talent of the ones in this match is almost impossible not to enjoy and this main event certainly never left fans wanting more than the brilliance we got. Not only did they have the task of following up Wrestlemania X-Seven, one of the best professional wrestling shows of all time, but the task of following up one of the biggest angles the company had ever done while 4 separate titles were all up for grabs.

The match ran a near towards the near 30-minute mark, combining the use of some great wrestling technique with a fair use of foreign objects before the matches inevitable ending. Not only does this mark one of the longest matches in the shows chronology, but a firm reminder to the fans that re-watch this of just how lucky we were to be graced by a main event of this magnitude.
