Your most "Against The Grain" opinion on wrestling

**James Steele** · 08-01-2016, 09:52 PM

Triple H is one of the most versatile characters and in-ring performers in the history of wrestling. The metamorphosis of his career since the mid 90s all the way through today shows an incredible amount of range both as a heel and babyface as well as an infinite portfolio of tremendous matches with a litany of different types of talents. He couldn't carry Scott Steiner or Kevin Nash in 2003, but the only people who could in that era were Shawn Michaels and Eddie Guerrero. Triple H has been the undisputed #1 heel in the business while also having been a bigger babyface than the alleged "top guy" at WrestleManias a decade apart (WM22, WM32). He was able to seamlessly transition from a singles guy to a stable guy to a tag team guy and back again. He can be an effective badass heeland a chickenshit heel in the same segment. He consistently has provided that "epic" and "big match feel" to his matches for 17 years. The bulk of his greatest work has come after tearing his quad that came in the middle of his physical peak.
