WWE Bio

He’s The King of Kings, a nickname with no hint of exaggeration considering that Triple H is essentially WWE royalty. From his days as a Greenwich snob, to his era-defining run as a co-founder of D-Generation X, to the time he spent shepherding future main eventers Randy Orton and Batista toward WWE greatness in Evolution, Triple H hasn’t just existed on the cutting edge, he’s been the one sharpening the blade. A 13-time World Champion, The Game has clashed with a litany of ring legends to seize the throne as The King of Kings. The Rock, “Stone Cold” Steve Austin, Ric Flair, Shawn Michaels, The Undertaker, John Cena, even WWE Chairman Vince McMahon—each mowed down by the sledgehammer-wielding fist of The Cerebral Assassin. He has methodically and systematically usurped sports-entertainment, capturing every major WWE championship (multiple times), the King of the Ring crown, a Royal Rumble Match victory (2002) and the marquee spot at WrestleMania on several occasions, all throughout a career that spans nearly two decades. As The Game’s role within WWE shifted from active competition, he used his squared circle acumen to nab the title of Chief Operating Officer and steer WWE toward some it’s most exciting and controversial moments in 2011. A bitter, personal rivalry with anti-authority crusader CM Punk tested Triple H’s resolve, and a mutiny by the whole Raw roster made it clear that even the combined power of an entire locker room couldn’t keep him down. Both situations necessitated The Cerebral Assassin’s return to the ring and, during each encounter—not to mention his five-star classic bout against The Phenom at WrestleMania XXVII —he demonstrated that, whether in a suit or trunks, he can still compete at the most elite level without missing a beat. At WrestleMania XXVIII , after four years of battles between Triple H, The Undertaker and Shawn Michaels, the trio participated in a post-bout curtain call that truly signified The End of an Era. Triple H’s passion for the squared circle burns hot and ensures that, no matter his role in WWE, those who choose to play The Game should be prepared to play by his rules. Unfortunately, The Cerebral Assassin has had to deal with Brock Lesnar breaking those rules at every turn since the freakish brute’s return to WWE on the night after WrestleMania XXVIII . The WWE COO also couldn’t escape the taunts of Lesnar’s representative, Paul Heyman, who has slapped Triple H with lawsuits and insulted his family. Three months after a heated confrontation with Lesnar where he broke The Game’s arm, The King of Kings finally came face to face with Lesnar at The 25th Anniversary of SummerSlam. And despite mustering up a tenacious and valiant effort, The Game learned a painful lesson in helplessness as he was unable to overpower the beastly competitor. After the match, a humbled Triple H refused medical treatment - it was revealed the following morning that Lesnar had again broken his arm—and apologized to the capacity crowd that counted on him to get Lesnar under control. The look of defeat on Triple H’s face was a new sight for the WWE Universe, and one that left everyone asking: Is The Game finally over? On the August 27 edition of Raw , The Cerebral Assassin addressed questions about his future, reminisced on his career and thanked the WWE Universe for their support. While it remains to be seen if Triple H will ever don the boots again, The Game remarked that he hopes he has left a mark inside the squared circle.

Breakdown

Playing as Hunter Hearst Helmsley will take true Triple H fans back to their roots. The move-set is the same, but the match could play out to be significantly more difficult. Here, the WWE legend weighs in at just an 88 Overall and he takes a big hit in a few attribute areas. As a relatively new Superstar to the WWE ring during the Attitude Era, his Charisma as Helmsley is just an 80—a big difference 15 years makes. He’s got a strong ability in Comeback, and he’s really only weak off the top rope. Grappling is his forte here. Most of his Chain Grapples will result in punishing the body. Destroy the body, destroy the man.
