This article recounts the early career of WWE superstar Triple H, highlighting his transformation from the arrogant Hunter Hearst Helmsley to one of the most iconic performers in wrestling history.
Triple H is remembered by a generation of fans as being an iconic performer and a character with a killer instinct. As one of the company's top heel - bad guy - wrestlers, he frequently left the heroes of the day laying in a heap. A multi-time former world champion in WWE , he won the company's top male championship on a combined 14 occasions over the course of one of the most storied careers of all time, packed with landmark wins in the Royal Rumble match, King of the Ring and more besides.
He first arrived on the WWE scene as Hunter Hearst Helmsley, a blue-blood snob who turned his nose up at the rest of the roster and the entire fanbase. His debut came at the end of April 1995, that taking place weeks after he announced himself in person to two of the biggest names in the history of the industry, Shawn Michaels and Kevin 'Diesel' Nash. These two were already firm friends when they fought at that year's WrestleMania over the latter's championship. Nash had arrived on the scene a couple of years earlier as foil to Michaels, who then effectively returned the favour before the two ended up doing battle prior to Nash's departure for WCW. It was after that WrestleMania had gone off the air that the good friends were approached by a reserved and polite Levesque, seemingly in great contrast to the man who'd later run amok in WWE alongside HBK. Michaels wrote in his Heartbreak and Triumph book: 'Kevin and I were sitting in the back at WrestleMania XI when an unfamiliar face walked up to us. And he said you are the guys to hang out with. So if you don't mind, I'd like to hang out and travel with you. 'That is how I met one of my best friends, Triple H, or Hunter, as most people call him
