92-97 HBK should be split into 2: 92-95 Heel Run and 96-97 Face Main center run.
But 97/98 DX was my favorite, followed by the 92-95 heel HBK

The 97-98 coked up soma'd up not giving a fukk HBK. That said, the argument can be made his best in ring work was during his man of God era

Nah man, that Sexy Boy run was legendary for me lol. He was easily top 3 for me at that time. You add that damn kick and that was it for me. Goat entrance music and one of the goat finishing moves.

98-02 broke back get the fukk off my TV era 
I didnt see his 97-98 dx run at the time, was only watching WCW. Looking back, he didn't do a good job of building up matches most of the time, it was just entertaining for him to act crazy and drugged out.
I like the man of god babyface run. Especially early on. His promos were best then by far imo, and he was a much more likable babyface than he was in the 90s.

I'd say it was that period when JBL made him cry every week because he was a broke bytch

Removing the DX reunions, his work after coming back from being retired for 4 years is underrated. Had the 2 Mania matches with Undertaker, the one with Flair, him being sonned weekly by JBL, Jericho feud where he was thrown through a TV, Hogan feud & fukkery.
Coked/pilled up HBK from 97-98 is close, but had he not gotten hurt and been removed from the picture, who knows what the attitude era would have looked like when he would eventually be pushed to the backburner.
I voted "Man of God". Somebody finally had good matches with Taker.
