There is the match against Taker that you mentioned, him winning the Undisputed Championship at WrestleMania X-8, and the Triple Threat Match at WrestleMania XX.

It's just that a lot of the other stuff he does at Mania is so bland it drowns it out.
WrestleMania XIV vs Owen Hart was a good match.
WrestleMania XIX vs Booker T, it was a good match and people were only pissed because Booker T didn't win (let me guess, Triple H booked that match too?)
WrestleMania 21, he made Batista (who is one of the biggest names in WWE still, Triple H must not have booked this one).
WrestleMania 22, he made a John Cena main event interesting and had the crowd into a match.
WrestleMania XXIV, the triple threat match was very good.
WrestleMania XXV, yes the match was nowhere near what it should have been.

I will agree with you that HHH is not HBK, but to completely disregard Triple H's body of work is absurd.
