It’s not easy to follow an excellent match. The reason is, that an excellent match sets an expectation level for the fans, and it’s disappointing to not live up to that level. In fact, WWE Legend Randy Orton revealed the time when he had to follow The Undertaker at WrestleMania.
During his conversation on Out of Character, The Viper revealed that Triple H and he were next in line, following The Undertaker vs Shawn Michaels. While watching that match, The Game showed signs of nervousness.

Initially, Orton didn’t realize why HHH was nervous, but once he explained it, Randy Orton knew what was coming their way.
“I’ll tell you what, it was hard as h*ll to follow Taker-Shawn at WrestleMania 25 or whatever that was. That was tough.. I remember being in the locker room with Triple H and they had a little monitor back then and were watching Undertaker vs Shawn Michaels.”
“He’s just sitting there and I saw what was happening but he was being about it. Like ‘oh god’. I’m watching and I’m like ‘oh, they’re having a great match. What’s the problem?’. ‘You know, well, we’re gonna have to follow that kid’ [Triple H said].. it was an uphill battle.”
One of the reasons Triple H knew they had to put up a performance as good as Undertaker vs Michaels is because it was a title match. HHH was putting the WWE Championship on the line against Randy Orton.
