The same thing happened with ‘The Game‘ Triple H. It was the No Way Out PPV in 2009 when the WWE Championship was on the line inside the Elimination Chamber match.

The fans still consider this Chamber match as one of the most hard-hitting Chamber matches of all time. However, there was one breathtaking moment when Triple H reversed Undertaker’s ‘Tombstone’; however, ‘Taker reversed HHH’s reversal in a soothing way.

Towards the end of the match, Triple H and The Undertaker were the only competitors remaining inside the Chamber.

The two wrestlers were outside the ring, when ‘Taker attempted a tombstone; however, with the help of the ring-ropes, HHH reversed the move to deliver a tombstone of his own. However, ‘Taker used the momentum and again put HHH in a tombstone position.

Surprisingly, HHH kicked out after this tombstone. Eventually, The Game went on to win the match when he pinned The Deadman clean after hitting a pedigree.
