Bio: Though starting down on the ladder as Hunter Hurst Helmsley, Triple H saw his career skyrocket when he became leader of the rebellious DX. With multiple invasions of WCW programming, DX became incredibly popular and a huge thorn in Vince McMahon's side. In November of 1999, HHH made his most daring plan happen when he married Stephanie McMahon in Test's place, starting the McMahon-Helmsley Era where HHH dominated over the rest of the WWF as champion. DX eventually parted, but HHH kept on going strong. After the destruction of the Rock at Wrestlemania X7 and Raw the following night, HHH teamed with Stone Cold Steve Austin to form the Two Man Power Trip, where HHH was IC champ and 1/2 of the Tag Team Champions. On May 24, 2001, Triple H suffered a potentially career-ending quadricep injury that kept him out of action for 7 months, until his return on January 7th. Because of his injury, Triple H missed the return of the Rock and the entire Invasion Saga, where he either could have helped or destroyed the WWF depending on whether he sided with his father-in-law or wife. HHH tossed out Kurt Angle to win the 2002 Royal Rumble and earn a title shot at Wrestlemania. Lately, HHH and his wife Stephanie have been having problems, but HHH prefers to look towards Wrestlemania X8 where he hopes to become the next undisputed Champion. However, Stephanie's departure from the Game's corner to his opponent's at Wrestlemania (Chris Jericho) will make HHH work a lot harder for a win because Stephanie can easily determine who will win a match, like she did at No Way Out and on March 4th's Raw, costing HHH a Steel Cage Match. HHH will have to bring it all to the grandest stage of them al if he wants the title. |
