Triple H is one of the WWE's biggest key players. Starting his career off as the Greenwich blueblood, Hunter seemed destined to stay in the WWF's midcard during the mid 90s, but an on-screen partnership with friend Shawn Michaels would elevate Triple H to the next level.
When Shawn retired in 1998, many thought Triple H might've floundered back into the WWF's midcard. The night after WrestleMania XIV, Triple H famously "picked up the ball" that Shawn dropped, creating his own D-Generation X stable that went on to became insanely popular. Wanting more from his wrestling career though, Triple H made the decision to leave DX at the height of their popularity. HHH wanted to become the biggest heel in WWF history and he wanted the WWF Championship, something that wasn't afforded to him while he was in D-Generation X.
This video from Wrestling Bios takes a look at Triple H leaving DX in 1999, eventually leading to Triple H changing his character and becoming "The Game". Topics included in this video include:

Triple H - Becoming "The Game"

I would love to see you cover the HHH vs Test storyline which was the period when Paul got married and break up with Chyna. I bet there are a lot of interesting facts there.
Good video
People bitch and say HHH was only successful because of getting with Stephanie or using HBK to get to the top but he was Intercontinental Champ before he even got with Steph.
Triple H is on my Rushmore of wrestling
Anybody still on Stacker 2?
@19:09 At first, I was thinking this "Who's the #1 contender?" meas was spread out over the course of a few weeks. Nah. This all happened IN ONE NIGHT!!! SMH ROTFLOL I only remember Chyna first beating Trips. Completely forgot the rest of the show.
Now I gotta go jam out to his "My Time" theme. Thanks, Wrestling Bios.
I liked my time entrace theme song because it was all about triple h he does things on his time and his shedule when he want to do it and also I also liked motorhead theme song called the game it absolutely rocks
I also liked drowning pools version of the game they preformed it live at wrestlemania 18 it was a great song
I also liked the higher brain and our time for triple h and stephanie McMahon
Triple H is the greatest wrestler ever! Definitely the best heel ever
NOTHING better than Trips wearing a Black Label Society shirt💯
I don't know why but for some reason I remember triple h being average and then one day blowing up with all these muscles but as I look back he kind of looks the same
Triple H didn't really find his footing as The Game until late 1999. After that, his 2000-2001 run was amazing.
Triple H & Ric Flair are the two best heels of all time in wrestling.
It was rumored that Jesse Ventura who was running 4 mayor at da time didn't want 2 raise da hand of a heel
I'm hoping that the Rock comes back and if he does him and Triple H should face one more time They had great chemistry in the ring, and the HHH vs ROCK rivalry is one fo the best of both there careers, if either want a last ride send this is how it should go
Is it just me or did wrestling revolve around the egos of HHH and Kevin Nash?
Honestly. I understand the fans that think triple h was fast tracked and his “ family “ affiliation. However I think that it’s valid if he was on top or whatever and was just garbage. But I don’t see it. If NXT was a flop and his career was too I could understand that argument. But I don’t see it like that
His rise to champ was the time I stopped watching wwe on a regular basis. Minus the summer of punk, it was time better spent elsewhere. Triple H reminded me of a guy who would be playing a wrestler in a movie
I wonder how he sleeps knowing he helped in killing China
You deserve more subs
There will never be a more despised heel than Triple H in 2000.
Triple H was easily the best heel wrestler from the last 30 years or so....better than Hollywood Hulk Hogan, Bret Hart, Shawn Michaels, Kurt Angle, Brock Lesnar, and Kevin Nash
Yes I absolutely loved this trip down memory lane! HHH, The Game, whatever you call him, was the best in the business and for the business
HHH during his time was my fav wrestler. Even in a world with Austin, Taker and HBK. The Game was badass!
Is there a link to the remix of My Time?
Why didn't they let Triple H pin Mick in the triple threat? Steve Austin doesn't have to get pinned to lose the belt right, plus it could've made for a story where Steve Austin fueds with him cause he never lost it legitimately
Ah yes the pdiddy of wwe
GAEM
Honestly, the HHH version of DX was the only version I knew.
i prefer the cerebral assassin triple H over the king of kings.
Did Triple H benefit from his ties with Steph? 100%. Did he deserve it? 100%. Triple H was going to win the 1996 king of the ring but because of the “Curtain Call,” was held back. If anything was unfair about his story it’s what the company did to him in 1996. So any boost he got from the company is just due the way I see it.
99-early 01 was definitely peak Triple H. Dude was an evil bastard lol.
Yes Triple H did have some questionable outcomes with matches, business dealings, etc. But he is (in my opinion) the best heel of the new millennium. The pedigree is still the most aggressive and picture perfect finisher to date (along with the F5 and Jackhammer 😊)
Use to play his theme song wwe shut your mouth thank you
As a kid, I LOVED to HATE HHH. As an adult, I realize how important he was to the WWF. The baby face isn’t the most important player in the game. The Heel is. And he IS THE GAME! Did they go overboard with his character in the early to mid 2000’s? Yes. But 1999-2000 HHH was so essential to the success of the company.
Triple H is a joke, he married Vince’s daughter otherwise he’s forgotten about years ago and never a main eventer
Couldn’t stand his ass when had that my time theme 😂😂😂😂
Corporate Ministry = NWO Elite
How I wish I could go back to 1997
Triple H is someone I didn't like right away but as time went on more stuff about him gradually stood out and he grew on you cause how relatable he is
I've never been a big HHH guy, but I won't deny what he's accomplished. One thing said at the beginning of the video is that some believe his rise to the the top was fast-tracked. I personally don't agree with that. He'd been in the WWE for quite a while before rising to the main event level, and he became the WWE Champion before his relationship with Stephanie had begun. I do obviously believe that his run on top was definitely solidified and prolonged by being with Stephanie though.
Greatest heels? Imo: Vince McMahon Ric Flair HHH Rowdy Roddy Piper Macho Man
I mean. I dont think he married her to advance. What do I know though 🤷♂️
Where do you get all of your music for the intros? I love this and the one for Austin... all of them actually! I want to hear one like a whole 3 minute video!
Triple H is an unabashed politician and regular burier, but the undeniable truth is that he's a legit main eventer and all-time great. Sheer fan reaction has turned him face at least four times, that doesn't happen to wrestlers they don't care about. His toughness also cannot be questioned, especially after finishing matches with torn quads. Good face, legendary heel.
IMHO, any wrestling fan that can't at least appreciate how good Trips is in the ring isn't much of a fan. I too am a Triple H fan, and I'm glad to see you didn't get downvoted :)
Honestly I never knew that hunter and Triple H was the same person
I agree n I've said it b4 ...triple H the greatest heel of all time
When HHH turned on DX, I became a fan.. Still thought Chyna turning heel was kinda stupid, but I loved how it ended
Thank you so much for this video. I've been watching your channel a lot lately and this is my favourite video thus far. HHH is my favourite wrestler and the best heel of the last two decades and his character development in 1999 was so intriguing. Keep up the good work! 👍
Pause at 5:06. That sign directly above Kane lmao
I do remember that I had a wwe shirt of the game triple h on the front of the t shirt it saids iam the game and on the back it saids because I am that damm good
I liked the game theme song sung by the legendary rock group from London called motorhead and sung the king of kings and evolution
I love how Kane deubted as a unstopable monster and was able to take out a group the size of DX.....then over time he has trouble and is over welemed by a group of wrestlers like DX.... Yes I know it's booked that way but it's just funny seeing how he had no trouble taking out 4 or 5 guys on his own then suddenly has trouble doing that. LOL
You really think triple h would admit to taking owen harts place as the game the new face of the franchise taking a man who dieds identity his wwe story etc etc Owen was considered the future especially when u had people like edge christian the hardy's etc etc he would of had a major resurgence
1 the game 2 the king of kings 3 wwe Triple H and chyna 4 dx
Every successful gimmick well 95% of them is truly wrestlers being themselves but turned it up only Steve Williams could've been Stone Cold only Dwayne Johnson could've been The Rock only Paul Levesque could've been Triple H definitely only Mark Calloway could've been The Undertaker I'm sure Glen Jacobs put a bit of himself into the Kane gimmick or Dustin Rhodes and the Goldust gimmick there has to be a level of authenticity for the gimmick to really get over
I agree with TRIPLE H
what is that remix at the start
Damn, could you imagine a world where Stone Cold went against Chyna in the main event at Summerslam? That would've been something to see for sure and would've been an incredible match if done properly
Triple H has no asterisk next to his name at all
Do you have his theme music used in this video uploaded anywhere? The my time mix.
I like the game theme song the best, but watching back through raw in the late attitude era does make me appreciate the my time theme more
You should do a playlist of your cover themes
Could you make a Chyna video? Not about her tragic life, but her amazing WWF from 1997-2001?
Owen Hart was truly the Original Game!!!
Mr. McMahon will always go down as the greatest heal in sports entertainment history
I can't help but feel like Chyna got screwed. She had to defend her #1 contendership thrice and was kicked out of the picture after 1 loss. IMO it should've been a fatal four way between HHH/Mankind/SCSA/Chyna.
I think, of all the Kliq members, only Triple H can be taken at face value with what he says. He seems to genuinely be 100% serious about everything he does nowadays
wher do you get all the awsoem music remix for your videos ?
His drive and intensity was so easy to see..brilliant in my opinion as far as a superstar
Soo Triple H was definitely fast-tracked in the WW(F)E, but not undeservedly.
I gotta say, a lot of your intro music remixes are pretty dope
this chit good ..📈
Triple h sabotaged rvd career
Triple H will always be my favourite wrestler ever!
Marry the bosses daughter Become a main eventer.
The Game is one of the greatest ...his "persona" his moveset his promos ...its just perfect there may be better wrestlers when it comes to working but a wrestler must always be seen as a complete package and HHH was a perfect package (unlike Luger ;) if you get it...)
Is there a Chyna video?
Marraige of your daughter decided by you aur your daughter kait
Triple H was a great heel hands down
No you shouldn't be downvoted for being a HHH fan. Regardless of how he got to the top, he worked hard to stay there as well as entertain the fans.
I am the gameuhhhhhhh, and in this very ringuhhhhhhh, for the next twenty-minutesuhhhhhh, I’m going to be talkinguhhhhh and saying absolutely nothinguhhhh.
Early HHH game with chyna and my time was quality
Are you Scottish bro?
Why would u get down voted for saying the truth? Triple H is one of the greatest heals in the history of wrestling. To stand out in that era meant something and he stood out. He was the perfect foil for some of the greatest faces in WWE history in The Rock and Stone Cold. I don’t care who he’s married to, the body of work that he’s put in, the matches, title runs, promos, antics, make him one of the best ever. That’s not up for debate.
Who wants to change his name to Triple H to Cripple H??? 🤔🤔🤔
The Game is the Best
Mediocre talent and backstabber.
Late 1999 to 2000 is the best triple h ever.
I don't care for his politics but his work ethic is great. Like it or not.
Greatest of All time :0
I miss Chyna.
You gotta be a bit sympathetic to Michael Cole having a career of having his ass handed to him by wrestlers over the years he’s been in the company!! 😂
In my opinion triple h's heel run from 1999 To 2005 was quite possibly the greatest heel run of any wrestler ever
I like HHH he is a great wrestler but yeah he was fast tracked to the top
👍
The second greatest of all time behind ric flair
Its funny because he stole the gimmick which was promised for Owen Hart..talk about ego and backstage politics
Why isn't this a documentary on WWE network?
Hhh came in to the WWF, went straight to the top guys to join their group. Stayed by HBKs side to get to the top and to top it off, he married the boss's daughter. Smart guy.
