Through the Eyes of a Cerebral Assassin: Evolution of a Generation

by Sulayman H.
“He may be the best in the business today.”
-Jim Ross, Survivor Series 2000
“I feel like I’m talking to myself and looking in the mirror twenty years ago, I was that good, that's how good you are.”
-Ric Flair addressing Triple H
If one can go to the unbelievably asinine limits that hyperbole allows
us to, one would be inclined to state that not only has Hunter Hearst
Helmsley been the face of his generation, but the greatest face of all
time.
Unfortunately, some would see fit that I set fire to my legs for making such a claim, so I won’t. I’m merely going to imply it because after all, who knows how much success Triple H would have had without nailing that creaky floorboard in his studio apartment?
(You were expecting something else?)
Some would have you believe that Triple H’s backstage politics make it impossible for any superstar to be put over by him, but those few could not be more obviously mistaken or maybe they could, maybe they could state that a certain Irishman’s Christmas present was from no other than the Cerebral Assassin.
If you can put all these theories and hearsay aside and look at the Connecticut Blueblood’s career achievements, then perhaps we can come to an agreement of sorts.
They said I would never make it in the business.
Triple H debuted as the Connecticut Blueblood on WWF television on April 30,
1995 and since then, he’s been teaching class and civility to all the vagabonds and ruffians that he has come across. He quickly started garnering an unfavorable perception backstage because of his connections to a group of wrestlers who supposedly took care of their own. Any wrestling fan of the 90s will know what the MSG Incident is and the aftermath of the event sent Hunter’s career to the trash can for a considerable amount of time.
They left and became the s***, now I’m stuck here wrestling in mud while Shawn hogs the spotlight but I’m going to make it; my time is coming, soon.
Despite being punished, Triple H did his time jobbing to the stars and had eventually captured the Intercontinental championship.
