Not everything in WWE is scripted. Sometimes, things take shape just out of the blue, or maybe through a dare. This is exactly what happened when The Rock was dared to do a move, and it ended up becoming his iconic finisher move! During a Supercut megadose about The Rock’s episodes on AdFreeShows, Bruce Prichard revealed that Rock’s iconic People’s Elbow was created via a dare. Now, the finisher wouldn’t have stuck through had the fans not popped, but they did. As a result, the finisher stuck! “The People’s Elbow was something that was done and it was created on the road at some point. It was a joke. And, I believe it was in a match with Triple H or The Undertaker, one of the two. They dared Rock to do it. And, he did it. It got a pop. He just continued to do it. It was so damn ridiculous and so over the top.” H/t AdFreeShows [https://www.patreon.com/posts/61987053] This just makes one wonder what if no one had dared The Rock to do The People’s Elbow? The WWE Universe would have never witnessed the iconic finisher. Watch This Story: WWE Superstar Ronda Rouseys Lifestyle: Net Worth, Hollywood, and More!

In fact, his first character, Rocky Maivia, wasn’t met by extreme hate from the fans. However, he took a break from WWE because of a knee injury and when he returned, he started referring to himself as The Rock. Soon enough, the audience loved the new character.

(Photo by Ron Elkman/Sports Imagery/Getty Images) Even when he was insulting the audience who initially booed him, the fans still loved what he was doing. Over time, he started referring to himself as The People’s Champion. At this point, the fans didn’t mind The Rock referring to himself as their champion.

WWE Megastar The Rock has an iconic finisher, The People's Elbow. However, the
origin story of the finisher is better than the move itself!

Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson

Dwayne Johnson &#8211; Net Worth 2024, Family, and Career Dwayne Johnson is one of the most popular and well-known wrestling superstars and actors in the world. After going through many hardships and struggles, Johnson was able to make it big. He started off his career as an ambitious football player, but then switched it to that of a pro wrestler, and now is a successful actor. What is the net worth of Dwayne Johnson? &#8216;The Great One&#8217; of WWE is currently one of the highest-paid actors in Hollywood. Apart from acting, Johnson is also heavily involved in various businesses and is a majority owner of many ventures. Dwayne Johnson&#8217;s net worth stands at $800 million as of 2023. LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA &#8211; NOVEMBER 03: Dwayne Johnson attends the World Premiere of Netflix&#8217;s &#8220;Red Notice&#8221; at L.A. LIVE on November 03, 2021 in Los Angeles, California. (Photo by Axelle/Bauer-Griffin/FilmMagic) It includes all of his movie earnings and business earnings as well, including his 30% stake in Teremana tequila. Many even expect it to touch the $1 billion mark with the Teremana tequila valuation increasing. The former wrestling star earns a whopping $270 million per year. All about Dwayne Johnson &#8211; family, kids, wife, and affairs A family man, Johnson always holds dear the most important people in his life; be it his mother, his cousins, his wife, or his children. Dwayne Johnson loves spending time with his family and is fond of having a special time with them. His father, Rocky Johnson, was also a pro wrestler, while his mother, Ata Johnson, belonged to the famous Anoa&#8217;i wrestling family. Thus, The Rock&#8217;s heritage is linked with the respected wrestling family, and he shares his lineage with some of the popular Samoan wrestlers. Johnson is a father to three daughters. Simone Johnson, the eldest, was born to his first wife, Dany Garcia, while his other two daughters, Jasmine Johnson and Tiana Johnson, were born to his current wife, Lauren Hashian. Simone Johnson followed in her father&#8217;s footsteps and stepped into WWE. She is currently part of NXT Roster under the ring name &#8216;Ava Raine&#8217;. Credits: Imago Growing up, The Rock did not experience luxury and did not have the pleasure of owning a proper home. However, with his current status, he lives in a mansion in Beverly Park, Los Angeles. How did Dwayne Johnsonâ€™s early life look like? Dwayne Johnson spent his childhood in multiple places. Born in Hayward, he spent his life in New Zealand, Honolulu, Charlotte, Hamden, and Nashville. The Rock&#8217;s father was a pro wrestler and was an inspiration to him. While growing up, Johnson faced a lot of hardships and struggles. Quite often, he and his mother wereÂ thrown out of their houses for not paying the rent, or Johnson would also find himself in trouble with the law frequently. The former wrestler knows what struggle is, and having experienced every bit of it, he is blessed for the life he has right now. He graduated from high school, enrolled on a full scholarship at The University of Miami, and aspired to be a professional player there. But life had other plans for him. After not getting drafted for the NFL, Johnson flew out to Canada to play in the Canadian League. Unfortunately, two months later, he was dropped. People might wonder if Johnson has served in the army, but he has not.  NEW YORK, NEW YORK &#8211; NOVEMBER 02: Dwane &#8220;the Rock&#8221; Johnson holds the belt for the Welterweight bout between Jorge Masvidal of the United States and Nate Diaz of the United States during UFC 244 at Madison Square Garden on November 02, 2019 in New York City. (Photo by Steven Ryan/Getty Images)  During this dark phase of his career, he traced back to his roots and joined the family legacy of pro wrestling. Soon, he was roped in by WWE, where he made his debut as Rocky Maivia, a character that failed to work well. What followed was a major heel turn, and &#8216;The Rock&#8217;, the name that set well with his identity, was born. There were years of entertainment, Championship wins, and massive pushes he received from Vince McMahon. At this point, WWE was heading into the Attitude Era, a more rebellious stage. Johnson rose to his peak during this era and made a name for himself. Apart from his wrestling skills, he was also known for his promo abilities and revolutionized the art of cutting promos. The Attitude Era took The Rock to prominence, and it attracted Hollywood as well; like bees to honey. Soon, they offered him multiple projects, and in 2001, The Rock left WWE to make a career in the movies. A look at the football career of Dwayne Johnson When it comes to the NFL, Johnson did not experience a happy phase. During the early stage of his football career, The Brahma Bull was rejected during the NFL drafts and had to move to Canada to play football. Now he is in an entirely different league of his own. While he does not own an NFL team yet, he is the owner of XFL. A direct competitor to the NFL, XFL has set up an R&amp;D partnership with the NFL, to expand the sport of football. All about the wrestling career of Dwayne Johnson A failed football career motivated The Rock to pursue pro wrestling. After his initial babyface gimmick failed, he turned heel. Johnson&#8217;s heel turn was a reviving moment in his career, and after that, he never had to look back. He reached new heights and tasted success with this new loud-mouthed, no-nonsense gimmick. During this transition phase of his career, Pat Patterson, a father-like figure to Johnson, suggested him the name, &#8216;The Rock&#8217;. It instantly clicked with him and has stayed with him forever since. WWE was going through a change during that point, and his gimmick, paired alongside another rising star, Stone Cold Steve Austin, took the company to new heights and also gave rise to a new rivalry. Soon, The Rock started focusing on acting and left WWE permanently. His busy schedule came in the way of his wrestling career. It is not known how much he earned during his prime in the company. During his stint in WWE from 2011-2013, Dwayne Johnson took home $5 million on an annual basis. However, he is no longer signed to the company but can make sporadic appearances at big events. Unveiling the Story of Dwayne Johnson&#8217;s Flourishing Acting Career Being one of the biggest movie stars in the world, Johnson has earned a major name for himself. Over the years, he has acted and produced some of the biggest and most popular films of all time. Although his films do not always earn critical appraisal, they do well commercially and take home the big bucks. LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA &#8211; NOVEMBER 03: Dwayne Johnson attends the World Premiere Of Netflix&#8217;s &#8220;Red Notice&#8221; at L.A. LIVE on November 03, 2021 in Los Angeles, California. (Photo by Amy Sussman/Getty Images) He started his career as a lead actor with The Scorpion King, and since then has gone on to star in several other big films. He has also been a part of some of the biggest film franchises, such as Jumanji and Fast and Furious. Johnson is extremely successful, taking home around $100m from movies every year, and charging $20 million per movie as remuneration.

He owns Teremana Tequila, XFL, Seven Bucks Productions, Zoa Energy, Acorns, Athleticon, Project Rock, and Salt and Straw. The Rock&#8217;s Teremana Tequila is extremely successful and well-known. A bottle usually contains a volume of 750 ml and costs under $40. He is the majority shareholder in this tequila brand and owns around 30% of the brand. Apart from businesses, the kind man, Johnson is heavily involved in donations and charities. He is one of the most charitable figures in the world and has a foundation called Dwayne Johnson Rock Foundation. It assists in the recovery of children who are hospitalized for different causes. In addition to that, it also works on education and childhood obesity prevention programs. The Rock is also a big part of the Make-A-Wish foundation. He has made efforts to prevent Parkinson&#8217;s Disease and AIDS. Johnson also supports AIDS &amp; HIV, At-Risk/Disadvantaged Youths, Cancer, Children, Creative Arts, Disaster Relief, Education, Grief Support, Health, Human Rights, Parkinson&#8217;s Disease, and Veteran/Service member-related organizations. In a nutshell, Johnson is a true role model coming such a long way in his eventful life. Dwayne Johnson memes Being a popular public figure, Johnson is exposed to the public, and it has often led to people creating and crafting different memes of him. Some of his most popular ones are him wearing the black turtleneck sweater and his eyebrow-raising. The Rock&#8217;s hilarious turtleneck sweater photo dates back to 1994 when he was just a young man trying to make it big, while his signature eyebrow-raise meme is from a 2019 video of his. Back in 2019, he took to his Instagram and addressed a video to the rapper, DaBaby, where he performed that look. Many people also wonder if Johnson has aÂ prosthetic forehead or not. A joke popularized by Kevin Hart, Johnson having a prosthetic forehead is not true. In 2023, the Red Notice star again invited a lot of memes following his confession of many political parties wanting him to run in the election for President. Dwayne Johnsonâ€™s workout and diet Dwayne Johnson has one of the most impressive physiques in the entire industry, and achieving a physique like that takes a lot of dedication. Johnson dedicates 3 to 4 hours every day to his physique and trains like a beast. He follows an extremely strict workout routine and is hard on himself to push past his limits. Johnson is famous for adhering to a 6-day workout split and divides his workout routine into different days, dedicating each day to an isolated muscle group, and training them. The two common training methods included in his workout regime are Pyramid Schemes and Giant Sets. The actor loves to train at his home gym &#8216;The Iron Paradise&#8217;. He has two such gyms, one at his home in Miami and the other at his Virginia Farm.

<h2 style="text-align: center">The Undertaker 2022: Net Worth, Salary, &amp; Endorsements</h2>
<p style="text-align: center">Mark Callaway, better known as "The Undertaker", is perhaps the most iconic superstar in the history of the WWE. For the better part of his career, his name was synonymous with professional wrestling.</p>
<p style="text-align: center">The Undertaker became a cultural icon around the world. Moreover, the gong signifying his entry still induces goosebumps in long-time wrestling fans. However, you'll be shocked to know that this legend wasn't always into professional wrestling. Initially, he wanted to pursue a career in basketball.</p>
<p style="text-align: center">However, fate took him to the doors of World Championship Wrestling (WCW), where he wrestled as Mean Mark Callous. Before that, he had wrestled for WCCW and Continental Wrestling Association under various gimmicks.</p>
https://youtu.be/sCZzhsd_NNY
<p style="text-align: center">His true calling was the WWE where he made his iconic debut as a part of the Survivor Series team of Ted DiBiase, called The Million Dollar Team. His moniker was The Undertaker, a person who disposes of corpses. The idea seemed silly at face value, and it was thought that The Undertaker will become another one of WWE's monster heels who only exist to make the babyfaces look better.</p>
https://youtu.be/1yT9LC6-i64
<p style="text-align: center">However, with his utmost dedication and the backing of Vince McMahon, he converted it into one of the most successful gimmicks in WWE history. He won numerous accolades and played various versions of his character. In the attitude era, he was the evil priest leading the ministry of darkness.</p>


[caption id="attachment_420586" align="alignnone" width="1920"]<img class="wp-image-420586 size-full" src="https://image-cdn.essentiallysports.com/wp-content/uploads/20201023191332/GettyImages-117935251.jpg" alt="Undertaker and Kane" width="1920" height="1258" /> The Undertaker vs Kane during Wrestle Mania XX at Madison Square Garden in New York City, New York, United States. (Photo by KMazur/WireImage)[/caption]
<p style="text-align: center">After that, he switched it for a biker character which received mixed reviews. However, the most successful version of his character came under "The Dead Man" personality, which gained mainstream recognition and saw many popular rip-offs. That was how powerful he had become.</p>
<p style="text-align: center">Interestingly, The Undertaker character gained such a life that WWE created several layers of the storyline around him. He was given an entire family, which included his evil father, Paul Bearer, who would walk around with his urn all the time.</p>
<p style="text-align: center">He was also given a fictitious brother in the form of WWE legend Kane. WWE had a great time creating hundreds of storylines around these characters, leading to some of the greatest moments in WWE history. They also inspired lots of fan fiction about his family members.</p>
https://youtu.be/EbXEG0w2R70
<p style="text-align: center">Another famous legend around his character is his various deaths. Obviously, WWE would play with that, considering the opportunity. He has died so many times on television that it's difficult to keep count, and there's an entire match concept around this called "The Buried Alive" match. Wrestling fans happily suspend their disbelief to enjoy this fantastic character.</p>


[caption id="attachment_455423" align="alignnone" width="612"]<img class="wp-image-455423 size-full" src="https://www.essentiallysports.com/wp-content/uploads/taker-and-vince.jpg" alt="The Undertaker with Vince McMahon" width="612" height="408" /> WWE Owner Vincent Kennedy McMahon (c) flanked by superstars The Undertaker (l) and Brock Lesnar (r) (Photo by Simon Galloway - PA Images via Getty Images)[/caption]
<p style="text-align: center">Over the years, The Undertaker became so popular that it was impossible for him to remain heel. Fans would cheer for him, regardless. That's why, even though his character had evil connotations, he played babyface many times in his career. As a living legend today, he gets the biggest props, and history will remember The Undertaker as the man who changed the course of professional wrestling forever.</p>

<h2 style="text-align: center">The Undertaker 2022 Achievements</h2>
[caption id="attachment_448920" align="alignnone" width="612"]<img class="wp-image-448920 size-full" src="https://www.essentiallysports.com/wp-content/uploads/undertaker-2015.jpg" alt="The Undertaker in a match" width="612" height="408" /> NEW YORK, NY - AUGUST 23: The Undertaker recovers during his fight against Brock Lesner at the WWE SummerSlam 2015 at Barclays Center of Brooklyn on August 23, 2015 in New York City. (Photo by JP Yim/Getty Images)[/caption]
<p style="text-align: center">The Undertaker <a href="https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Undertaker">holds many records</a> within the WWE. He is a seven-time world champion, winning the WWF/E championship four times and the world heavyweight championship three times.</p>
<p style="text-align: center">He is also a six-time tag team champion, winning once with Stone Cold Steve Austin, twice with The Big Show, once with The Rock, and twice with Kane. Moreover, he is the winner of the 2007 Royal Rumble. That explains why he is considered one of the greatest wrestlers of all time.</p>
https://youtu.be/VkuwPP250YU
<p style="text-align: center">However, his biggest success rate is at WWE's biggest show, WrestleMania. The Undertaker debuted at WrestleMania in 1991 and won against Jimmy Snuka in his match. Over the years, his WrestleMania win-loss would extend to 21-0.</p>
<p style="text-align: center">He only missed out on WrestleMania 10 (1994) and WrestleMania 2000. The streak was finally broken in 2014 by The Beast Brock Lesnar.</p>
<p style="text-align: center">The Undertaker has competed in five more WrestleMania matches since then, winning four of them against Bray Wyatt, Shane McMahon, John Cena, and AJ Styles. His only loss came against Roman Reigns, which made him only the second wrestler to defeat The Undertaker at the biggest stage of them all.</p>

His WWE salary is estimated at $2.5 million annually and he is now on a Legends contract.</p>

<p style="text-align: center">The Undertaker has been known to be a wrestler who has kept his personal life under the curtains. This was largely to protect the sanctity of his larger-than-life character.</p>
<p style="text-align: center">However, a part documentary series released on the WWE Network called The Ride gives us a never-before-seen look into his life. It takes a glimpse into his career and features comments from his peers. His wife, Michelle McCool, is also a part of the series.</p>
https://youtu.be/6dU9dIOKqxk
<p style="text-align: center">The Undertaker can be seen as a normal man with a family and ambitions. It had been shot for a period of three years. The documentary has received largely positive reviews from professional wrestling fans who are cherishing the opportunity to see their favorite wrestler in the element.</p>

<p style="text-align: center">The Undertaker was very active recently when he raised money for those affected by the coronavirus pandemic. He auctioned off a dinner with him where a fan could talk to him about anything they want.</p>
<p style="text-align: center">The proceeds from this event went towards the charities to help the most affected in the times when the USA has been heavily affected by the disaster, further increasing the value of this help sent by him.</p>

The Undertaker

The Undertaker 2022: Net Worth, Salary, &amp; Endorsements Mark Callaway, better known as &#8220;The Undertaker&#8221;, is perhaps the most iconic superstar in the history of the WWE. For the better part of his career, his name was synonymous with professional wrestling. The Undertaker became a cultural icon around the world. Moreover, the gong signifying his entry still induces goosebumps in long-time wrestling fans. However, you&#8217;ll be shocked to know that this legend wasn&#8217;t always into professional wrestling. Initially, he wanted to pursue a career in basketball. However, fate took him to the doors of World Championship Wrestling (WCW), where he wrestled as Mean Mark Callous. Before that, he had wrestled for WCCW and Continental Wrestling Association under various gimmicks. https://youtu.be/sCZzhsd_NNY His true calling was the WWE where he made his iconic debut as a part of the Survivor Series team of Ted DiBiase, called The Million Dollar Team. His moniker was The Undertaker, a person who disposes of corpses. The idea seemed silly at face value, and it was thought that The Undertaker will become another one of WWE&#8217;s monster heels who only exist to make the babyfaces look better. https://youtu.be/1yT9LC6-i64 However, with his utmost dedication and the backing of Vince McMahon, he converted it into one of the most successful gimmicks in WWE history. He won numerous accolades and played various versions of his character. In the attitude era, he was the evil priest leading the ministry of darkness.

(Photo by KMazur/WireImage) After that, he switched it for a biker character which received mixed reviews. However, the most successful version of his character came under &#8220;The Dead Man&#8221; personality, which gained mainstream recognition and saw many popular rip-offs. That was how powerful he had become. Interestingly, The Undertaker character gained such a life that WWE created several layers of the storyline around him. He was given an entire family, which included his evil father, Paul Bearer, who would walk around with his urn all the time. He was also given a fictitious brother in the form of WWE legend Kane. WWE had a great time creating hundreds of storylines around these characters, leading to some of the greatest moments in WWE history. They also inspired lots of fan fiction about his family members. https://youtu.be/EbXEG0w2R70 Another famous legend around his character is his various deaths. Obviously, WWE would play with that, considering the opportunity. He has died so many times on television that it&#8217;s difficult to keep count, and there&#8217;s an entire match concept around this called &#8220;The Buried Alive&#8221; match. Wrestling fans happily suspend their disbelief to enjoy this fantastic character.

Fans would cheer for him, regardless. That&#8217;s why, even though his character had evil connotations, he played babyface many times in his career. As a living legend today, he gets the biggest props, and history will remember The Undertaker as the man who changed the course of professional wrestling forever.

(Photo by JP Yim/Getty Images) The Undertaker holds many records within the WWE. He is a seven-time world champion, winning the WWF/E championship four times and the world heavyweight championship three times. He is also a six-time tag team champion, winning once with Stone Cold Steve Austin, twice with The Big Show, once with The Rock, and twice with Kane. Moreover, he is the winner of the 2007 Royal Rumble. That explains why he is considered one of the greatest wrestlers of all time. https://youtu.be/VkuwPP250YU However, his biggest success rate is at WWE&#8217;s biggest show, WrestleMania. The Undertaker debuted at WrestleMania in 1991 and won against Jimmy Snuka in his match. Over the years, his WrestleMania win-loss would extend to 21-0. He only missed out on WrestleMania 10 (1994) and WrestleMania 2000. The streak was finally broken in 2014 by The Beast Brock Lesnar. The Undertaker has competed in five more WrestleMania matches since then, winning four of them against Bray Wyatt, Shane McMahon, John Cena, and AJ Styles. His only loss came against Roman Reigns, which made him only the second wrestler to defeat The Undertaker at the biggest stage of them all.

(Photo by Tim Warner/Getty Images) The Undertaker has a 2021 net worth of more than $17 million, according to Celebrity Net Worth. His WWE salary is estimated at $2.5 million annually and he is now on a Legends contract. The Undertaker Last Ride Documentary The Undertaker has been known to be a wrestler who has kept his personal life under the curtains. This was largely to protect the sanctity of his larger-than-life character. However, a part documentary series released on the WWE Network called The Ride gives us a never-before-seen look into his life. It takes a glimpse into his career and features comments from his peers. His wife, Michelle McCool, is also a part of the series. https://youtu.be/6dU9dIOKqxk The Undertaker can be seen as a normal man with a family and ambitions. It had been shot for a period of three years. The documentary has received largely positive reviews from professional wrestling fans who are cherishing the opportunity to see their favorite wrestler in the element. The Undertaker 2022 Charities And Foundations The Undertaker was very active recently when he raised money for those affected by the coronavirus pandemic. He auctioned off a dinner with him where a fan could talk to him about anything they want. The proceeds from this event went towards the charities to help the most affected in the times when the USA has been heavily affected by the disaster, further increasing the value of this help sent by him.

Triple H

LAS VEGAS, NEVADA &#8211; OCTOBER 11: WWE Executive Vice President of Talent, Live Events and Creative Paul &#8220;Triple H&#8221; Levesque speaks at a WWE news conference at T-Mobile Arena on October 11, 2019 in Las Vegas, Nevada. It was announced that WWE wrestler Braun Strowman will face heavyweight boxer Tyson Fury and WWE champion Brock Lesnar will take on former UFC heavyweight champion Cain Velasquez at the WWE&#8217;s Crown Jewel event at Fahd International Stadium in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia on October 31. (Photo by Ethan Miller/Getty Images) Triple H 2021: Net Worth, Salary, &amp; Endorsements Most Superstars in WWE take their entire career to reach their goals. No Superstar, however, has come as far as Triple H in the business. ‘The Game’ has traversed a vast distance in his long and illustrious career in WWE.  Triple H has been involved in several showdowns and even as an executive for WWE, he is one of its best professional wrestlers. Despite being more involved in the company&#8217;s running now, Paul Levesque is able to wrestle whenever a feud idea comes up. History Early Career and WCW Triple H was inspired by wrestling from a young age. To become like his role models on TV, he himself began working out and exercising to build himself up.  His physique at a young age was commendable, and he wanted to take his talents to professional wrestling. Meeting Ted Arcidi at a gym was Levesque’s road to the business.  Arcidi, a world-famous powerlifter and employed by WWE, agreed to introduce Levesque to popular wrestler Killer Kowalski, who had his own training school.  Levesque began training with Kowalski and ended up fighting in his promotion known as International Wrestling Federation (IWF), where he became the IWF Heavyweight champion. Levesque then joined WCW under the ring name, Terra Ryzing, in 1994. He worked with the promotion as a villain and soon had his name changed to Jean-Paul Levesque, which made use of his original French surname. He even spoke in a French accent. WWF Triple H was offered a contract by WWE (then WWF) after impressing Vince McMahon with his performance at Starrcade 1995. Levesque signed the contract and officially began his career at the company.  Initially, Levesque played the role of a snobbish character who referred to himself as a “Connecticut Blueblood”. He was given several good matches in the first months of his career.  On his request, he went by the name Hunter Hearst Helmsley. This name would later be shortened into HHH or Triple H. Levesque found himself in extremely troubled waters during an incident involving the Kliq, which was a backstage faction comprising of Helmsley, Shawn Michaels, Scott Hall, Kevin Nash, and X-Pac (Sean Waltman). After an infamous character-breaking incident at Madison Square Garden in 1996, Levesque was solely punished for the Kliq’s actions. As a result, he was poorly booked for the next few months.  Apart from a fight with the Ultimate Warrior and a few other matches, Helmsley had a shaky start in WWE. He covered it up by bouncing back strong with big feuds against Rocky Maivia (The Rock) and ended up defeating Goldberg at WrestleMania 13.  D-Generation X ‘The Game’ soon earned his place in WWE, teaming up with Shawn Michaels to form D-Generation X, which would go on to become one of the most famous teams in WWE history.  Initially working as villains, D-X were known for their craziness inside the ring. Their catchphrase, “suck it,” caught on well with the crowd of the time.  D-X feuded with the Hart Foundation and Triple H continued his feud with Owen Hart after that, winning the European Championship at WrestleMania XIV.  During this era, Triple H slowly moved on from the Connecticut Blueblood persona to a more gruff, jacket-wearing character to match the energy of D-X. His name was also switched to Triple H, although he is still referred to as Hunter sometimes.  Triple H went on to have a feud with The Rock who was growing as a major villain, being part of the Nation of Domination. After The Rock won the WWF Championship, ‘The Game’ continued the feud along with a tussle with The Corporation, which saw Vince McMahon (as Mr.McMahon) team up with The Rock. Following several betrayals and plot-twists involving Chyna, Triple H finally joined The Corporation himself, betraying his teammate X-Pac in one of the biggest crowd shockers in WWE history. The Corporation and Attitude Era Triple H gradually moved away from his D-X look and moved on to his characteristic look through his title feuds. He won his first-ever WWF Championship in a victory over Mankind on Raw is War.  He would then get thrown into a bungle of feuds with Mr. McMahon, Mankind, and Stone Cold. He dropped the Championship, regained it, and dropped it again to Big Show before continuing his feud with Mr. McMahon who was now his biggest enemy.  By this point, Vince McMahon had become actively involved in the storylines of the Attitude Era that was defined by his feuds. To get back at his arch-rival and the owner of the company, Triple H married McMahon’s daughter Stephanie in the storyline. McMahon-Helmsley Era With the marriage, the two formed the McMahon-Helmsley faction that blasted its way into the peak of the Attitude Era. The action saw Triple H getting into feuds and rapid matches with Chris Benoit, The Rock, Stone Cold, and Kurt Angle.  Introducing his new nickname as ‘The Game’ in the context of his dominance over the sport, Triple H won the WWE Championship and the World Heavyweight Championships multiple times from his foes.  His feud with The Rock finally ended with a loss at &#8216;King of the Ring&#8217; and he then fought Chris Jericho in another storyline involving the WWF Championship. The era was defined by his feud with “Stone Cold” Steve Austin, a storyline involving Vince McMahon as well. After Austin nearly tried to kill him with a forklift and Triple H and the two had a series of extreme matches, they settled their differences and became a Tag Team! HHH and Stone Cold ambushed The Rock, Chris Jericho, and even beat The Undertaker and Kane for the WWF Tag Team Championships. A series of short title reigns and switches characterized the entire era.  An injury saw HHH miss the entire invasion storyline with WCW (now acquired by WWE), and he returned later to win the Royal Rumble and became the Undisputed WWE Champion shortly after.  Ruthless Aggression Era Triple H became the dominant figure in the Ruthless Aggression era, marking his territory with several title reigns and huge feuds. He was close to joining the faction nWo, but McMahon disbanded the team over disputes.  He then turned heel once more by attacking his best friend Shawn Michaels at a planned D-X reunion. This marked the end of the historical storyline friendships between the two stars. He then had a creepy storyline with Kane.  Triple h became the first WWE World Heavyweight Championship by winning the newly introduced belt. It was the same one WCW used and  NWA before that.  Evolution ‘The Cerebral Assassin’ then formed a faction including himself, Randy Orton, Batista, and Ric Flair, known as Evolution. The group would go on to make groundbreaking progress in the main roster. All three of the members left Armageddon 2003 holding a title.  Following this, HHH feuded with Shawn Michaels, Booker T, and Chris Benoit. He went on to have a feud with former stable-mate Randy Orton, in which he merged victorious. He was, however, beaten by Batista later in a major feud that ended at Vengeance.  Triple H ended the evolution era with a final feud against Ric Flair, which he finally won at Survivor Series. The rest of his run was peppered with great matches against the best Superstars of the generation like John Cena, Edge, and others, and he also captured the WWE Championship multiple times.  He also reunited with Shawn Michaels to revive D-X which had another two runs. Triple H appeared in multiple huge fights at WrestleMania and nearly broke Ric Flair’s record of most title reigns of all time.  Corporate Role Triple H began getting more involved in his corporate role in WWE. He was now an executive in the company and also a part-time wrestler. However, this didn’t stop him from cracking great angles.  Using his role in the company, he formed a “white collar” character that started off as a babyface, and slowly changed into a power-hungry heel. Triple H challenged The Undertaker at WrestleMania twice in an attempt to break the streak and avenge the career of Shawn Michaels, which was ended by Taker. He fought hard but was unsuccessful in both.  ATLANTA, GA &#8211; APRIL 03: Triple H and Undertaker battle during their WWE No Holds Barred Match at &#8216;WrestleMania 27&#8217; at the Georgia World Congress Center on April 3, 2011 in Atlanta, Georgia. (Photo by Moses Robinson/Getty Images) He then went on to feud with Brock Lesnar, once again in an effort to avenge Shawn Michaels, but this time, it was for Lesnar breaking the former’s arm.  Triple H lost to Lesnar at SummerSlam but ended up defeating Lesnar at WrestleMania that year. He went on to continue his feud with Paul Heyman until he was ruled out due to an injury.  The Authority “The Game” once again revived his relationship with Stephanie McMahon as the corporate heads of WWE, forming The Authority faction. The Shield (Roman Reigns, Seth Rollins, and Dean Ambrose) were their enforcers.   The Authority’s reign would be riddled with rebellion from John Cena, which eventually took the entire thing down. However, Triple H and Stephanie McMahon managed to make a big move and used Seth Rollins as their spokesperson to return.  Triple H then had feuds with a returning Sting, which he won at WrestleMania. He then would have feuds with Roman Reigns and later Seth Rollins, both of which he failed to win. The Authority itself was taken down completely when Kurt Angle and Ronda Rousey defeated Triple H and Stephanie at WrestleMania. His last major feud was with Batista, who challenged his former Teammate to the last battle. Triple H managed to beat ‘The Animal’ at WrestleMania, settling their decade-long rivalry.

(Photo by Dimitrios Kambouris/Getty Images) Triple H has since fought Randy Orton in a losing effort at Super Showdown. He has also made sporadic appearances but has reduced his in-ring appearances as a professional wrestler.  He now plays an important part as the driving force of NXT and also plays a critical role in spreading the WWE recruitment territory to the world. The future will be in safe hands if Paul Levesque someday takes the reigns.

(Photo by Bryan Steffy/Getty Images for WWE) Triple H Achievements  Triple H is one of the most decorated Superstars in WWE history. He is a 5-time World Heavyweight Champion, a 9-time WWF/WWE Champion, a 5-time WWF/WWE Intercontinental Champion, a 2-time WWF European Championship, and a 2-time WWF Tag Team Champion.  Outside of WWE, he won the International Wrestling Federation (IWF) Heavyweight Championship once. He has also won the Royal Rumble twice- in 2002 and 2016. Helmsley’s haul of 14 World Championships in WWE is the second-highest career pull, behind John Cena and Ric Flair’s total of 16. He shares the position with Randy Orton. Triple H 2021 Net worth  Triple H is believed to have a net worth of $45 million. This can be attributed to his legendary career, title reigns, and vitality to the WWE engine as a businessman. This number is bound to increase as he works more on the global outreach of NXT and such endeavors.  Triple H 2021 Charity  Triple H and Stephanie McMahon have jointly started ‘Connor’s Cure’ which is, according to the WWE community report, “a charity that they have personally funded through Children’s Hospital of Pittsburgh Foundation.”  The charity program was named in honor of Connor Michalek, a small boy who suffered from Medulloblastoma, a rare tumor that affects the brain and spinal cord. The report also stated that “donations to Connor’s Cure will provide funds for pediatric brain and spinal cancer research, and medical care for children and their families.” How to contact Triple H TOKYO,JAPAN &#8211; JUNE 28: Triple H enters the ring during the WWE Live Tokyo at Ryogoku Kokugikan on June 28, 2019 in Tokyo, Japan.
