HBK. No contest. He is the greatest of all time. End of(.) P.S. You are also forgetting Shawn's eight match of the year awards in PWI. PWI Match of the Year award in 1993 – vs. Marty Jannetty (Monday Night RAW, May 17, 1993) PWI Match of the Year award in 1994 – vs. Razor Ramon (WrestleMania X, March 20, 1994) PWI Match of the Year award in 1995 – vs. Diesel (WrestleMania XI, April 2, 1995) PWI Match of the Year award in 1996 – vs. Bret Hart (WrestleMania XII, March 31, 1996) PWI Match of the Year award in 2004 – vs. Chris Benoit and Triple H (WrestleMania XX, March 14, 2004 PWI Match of the Year in 2005 – vs. Kurt Angle (WrestleMania 21, April 3, 2005) PWI Match of the Year in 2006 – vs. Vince McMahon (WrestleMania 22, April 2, 2006) PWI Match of the Year in 2007- vs. John Cena (RAW, London England, April 23rd, 2007) Re-read those last two. He dragged Mr.McMahon and John Cena to a MOTY each... Dragged Cena? Cena did fine in that match and had a MOTYC with Umaga, did Umaga drag Cena to that one as well? I admit, Cena had improved A LOT by then from what he was in 2006 for example. Maybe "dragged" wasn't the right word choice. Shawn did carry the match though. And let's face it, John Cena going an hour? Nobody can tell me he could have gone an hour if it wasn't HBK in the match with him. Nobody. And besides, when did Cena/Umaga get MOTY  |

Currently: I'd give the edge to HHH, just because he just seems to get a bigger pop.
Of All Time: Shawn Michaels, by far.

I think, if the WWE continues to appreciate it's former stars in the years to come, then Shawn Michaels will be remembered very well. He is a legend, the greatest all-round competitor of all time, so how could he not be remembered? But I do agree, that fans are slightly more likely to remember Trippers simply because he is the Son-in law of the boss- and hence has more behind him. Which will lead to more name exposure on TV, more Air-time to make appearances etc. As long as him and Steph stay together; I doubt Mr. McMahon will let the WWE fans forget Triple H. Besides, who's to say he won't take over the company himself some day... ...   |

Dragged Cena? Cena did fine in that match and had a MOTYC with Umaga, did Umaga drag Cena to that one as well? Umaga did imo, cena was good but if it was Mark Henry it would be a shadow of what that match was. Well than that isn't a drag by either man, it'd just be two good workers putting on a great match. |

C meaning contender, and the LMS at RR was a contender in nearly every list/poll I saw on the net. |

anyways Shawn will always be bigger and better than HHH. BUT i do say, in 20 years Triple H will be remembered over HBK, because HHH will still probably be in WWE doing backstage stuff, GM, road agent, HOF, etc. I agree that HHH will be remembered more because he'll still be in the business somehow. HBK is, was and will always be the bigger star. No matter how HHH books himself, he will never eclipse Shawn. Shawn or Flair.......interchangeable at who is the all time greatest. HHH isnt even in the top 10. True, but if there was a list of the greatest ever, HBK wouldn't be in the top 10 either. Are you kidding me? Who would be in your top 10 sans HBK? |

HBK is my favorite of ALL time and to me is a far better wrestler and more innovative than HHH could ever be. However, HBK was missing during the most popular years of WWE which is when HHH became REALLY established. While HBK was always truly be more of a legend, I also agree that kids know more who HHH is and I think Triple H's name is more recognizable to casual or even non-wrestling fans.

Better Wrestler: HBK
More Classics: HBK
More titles:HHH
I have to say HHH will be remembered more. Just because you are remembered more doesn't mean you are better.
Mr. 1derful is a better wrestler than Hulk.
Who is known by more fans Hulk.
Why they pushed him more.
The best wrestler of all time is HBK. He puts his all in everynight. He gives it his all wether he is losing or winning. He is better than Flair. He is the best ever.

Shawn Michaels. Arguably the greatest wrestler ever, with insane charisma. He was( pretty much still is) the total package.
It's funny, Triple H could book himself to have a thousand title reigns but he'll never eclipse HBK in terms of popularity.

Triple H,because he will be known as the man to hold the most world titles.
You guys know he will beat flairs record of 16.
But in my eyes its HBK.

Triple H.
11 World Titles- 4 for HBK
19 Titles for HHH-12 for HBK
HHH has headlined Mania 16, 20, 21, 22. HBK has headlined 11, 14, 20.
says it all right there. HHH has done more big things than HBK has. I mean dont get me wrong both are AMAZING performers and athletes, but Trips is better IMO.
