Hard to say since the RR triple threat is still fresh in my mind.
I picked it anyway just because of how awesome Rollins performed. It was obvious to see that match meant so much to him and that he was out to prove himself.
From an entertainment standpoint, Brock/Cena/Rollins. From a pure wrestling standpoint, HBK/HHH/Stevie Richards was far superior. The last 2 minutes of the Rumble triple threat were probably the most exciting 2 minutes of any match I've seen in the last 10 years though.
Well in one you had three ring generals and in the other you had Rollins. Both were great matches but its hard to pick. Rollins easily had the best performance out of any of those 6 though. God how epic Seth Rollins vs Shawn Michaels in his prime would be.
I'm going to give to the Rollins match because it's still fresh on my mind and it saved the disaster that was the Royal Rumble PPV. I can't really remember the other match. I'm sure I have seen it a very long time ago and it was amazing but can't remember much of it. The Rollins match is just fresh on my mind and it was amazing.
I'm going to go with Rollins/Cena/Lesnar, that match was amazing from start to finish. Some might say Rollins carried it, and he definitely did seem to be in another universe, but I think all 3 played their parts very well. The Phoenix Splash was such a nice touch, and for some reason the way Brock rushed into the ring and pretty much dead lift german suplexed Rollins off of Cena gave me goosebumps.
While you can have an opinion on which match was better, you shouldn't bring that up. You should evaluate which match was better from what happened in the ring, not the horrible tragedy that happened over three years later.
I loved Rollins vs Cena vs Lesnar and thought it was one of best matches I have seen in about a year but it was a finishing move spam fest IMO. Some huge spots though and loved every bit of it.
HHH vs HBK vs Benoit wrestling wise was better and a much better "wrestling" match.
I'm going with Brock/Cena/Rollins because it was maybe the best performance of Brocks career, and Rollins was the perfect spot guy they needed for it, they all performed so well. That match was so fluid and perfect and filled with excitement. The ending sequence was tremendous too, Brock came across as the most godlike man in the history of wrestling.
Rollins/Cena/Brock is extremely overrated at this point in time. It was an amazing match. Actually it was refreshing, the psychology was new and it was something we've never quite seen before.
That being said, I'm not feeling the people calling it the match of the decade and shit.
Well to be fair, we as fans, have not seen a match that good in years. Nothing feels like an outright war these days but that triple threat sure as fuck did.
