Triple H used Motorhead songs and that I really like. RIP Lemmy.
@@birtum he also wrote King of Kings for him didn't he?
I believe he wrote the game, king of kings, and evolution
@@jasonparsons7653 yup he did. I love motorhead. Jack the Ripper is a sick tune if you haven't heard it
@@FrozenAngel4173 it is, id say its probably one of my favorites. But thats a long list lol
Because Lemmy was a life long fan of pro wrestling n best friends with triple h n triple was a big Motörhead fan
Kratos the god of war is giving interview
damn Sony should make a God Of War live action movie with Triple H as Kratos
@@DistinctWisdom That is the most phenomenal of ideas I have ever read. I would pay you tenfold for that. 😎
Kratos is a metal.
What if this guy really can act n God of War become a movie then he is the perfect castings for that scenario.
So much IF need to happen for that
BOOOOY!!!
You know 15 years ago this interview would have ended with a pedigree.
Shaved his head put on a suit kinda sold out
I'd say started with a pedigree and be DX interviewing DX
Tripple H is one of my favorite wrestler.
kickout after 1
You just gotta love this man. Been a huge fan since I was 4 years old
The great one did not expect you here and praising papa triple h
aaaaay a pleasent surprise to see u here
love ur vids big fan
🤘🏻
instablaster.
Sorry to be off topic but does someone know a tool to log back into an Instagram account??
I was dumb forgot my account password. I love any help you can offer me
Even on Loudwire HHH gets his 20 minute promo
James Smith lmfaoooooo
LOL
Booooo
Lol
If this is a promo, he put over everyone but himself
I guess Triple H is the only human being that has not one, not two, but THREE songs performed by MOTÖRHEAD exclusively form him
Only 2 actually 1 of them was a stable exclusive for evolution
Shawn Fishing shut up
Shawn Fishing if you get technical about it, then yeah you're right, but who was the leader of Evolution and thanks to who you'd think they get that song 🤷🏽♂️
@@C.Molina all debates aside we can both agree Triple H has always had the best themes
4 if you count DX song too
Imagine Triple H's next wrestlemania entrance has him in a Kratos costume with Shawn Michaels being BOY
HHH: B O I!!!
sexy boy
U mean SEXY BOY?
greatest thing ive read today
😹
Lemmy once said " Time to play the gaaaaaaaameeee"
I don't know if you know but thats actually triple h's theme
@@kmartins7 well i knew it because i usually watch Triple H on raw since ruthless aggression era 😂
@@malasnonton922 oh sorry hahahah
Geeeyyymaaa
He also said “Evolution is a mystery, full of change that no one sees, clock makes a fool of history”
Or “Behold the king, the king of kings”
Damn Triple H looking more like Kratos every time I see him
BOI!
J_a_c_k F_i_n_c_h If they are gonna make a god of war movie, have this bald guy portray Kratos and the movie is a masterpiece.
Inhale.
Exhale.
BOI !
Bald zakk wylde tbh
Dad of War
I love how HHH is passionate about NXT. He really did build that brand to what it is today. His love for rock & metal has fit the mold so perfectly that Vince could never. His awareness on how fans feel about the product is exactly why most of us believe Paul Levesque should be the man to take over whenever Vince steps down. Much respect to HHH. He's done so much for the business and in turn a lot for the fans.
That's awesome that Triple H brung metal to NXT. What's more awesome is that Triple H has two main entrances by Motorhead.
3 if you count Evolution's theme.
@I am Hamburger! Yeah, I meant bring. My bad.
@Michael Davis Right, brought. Thanks bud.😊
And d generation x theme as well
@@bineethsharma9288 Hellyeah. Them too.
Raw and Smackdown = pop music
NXT = Metal
Edit: THAT WAS JUST A METAPHOR
AEW= Alternative rock
New Japan is EXPERIMENTAL JAZZZZZZZZZ
Skillet and ACDC are pop band? Man, dont stupid about it. Chris Jericho says..."Google it, google it and drink A Little Bit Of Bubbly Champagne from Le Champion brand"
@@muhammadsaidashrafarifki1036 Not "pop" per se, but very mainstream. Almost pop.
The Negative One I dunno man there’s some heavy shit on RAW and Smackdown but majority is yeah, lotta pop music.
The chills I would get when I would hear the “This Fire Burns” theme of CM Punks
Exactly! Kickstarted my love for metal
Got chills just reading this lol
Remember hearing Orton one week with that and loved it, marked out. Next week, nope. Glad when punk got it shortly after though. I enjoy in living colour's cult of personality, but prefer killswitch's.
Devin Heida I agree ☝️
Just one word........... metalingus
Triple H : King of kings, the game, evolution
Batista : I walk alone
CM Punk : This Fire Burns
Etc.... So many great metal songs
Dolph zigler original
Original dx theme are you ready
Le_Poney_Posey Kane: Slow Chemical
Edge: Metalingus
Undertaker: Ministry rock version, American Badass, Rollin
Rob Van Damn: One of a kind
Sheamus: Written in my face
Bret ‘the hitman’ hart.
Just to add a few more. Man the themes really were catchier than they are nowadays. Within the past 8 years, most newer themes aren’t memorable for me.
@@bassmanplays7285 these are great exemple.... Today only Aleister Black have a great Metal Theme in my opinion
I appreciate Loudwire’s love for WWE, they haven’t been shy at all.
Triple H is right, I've looked up multiple bands I've never heard before AFTER hearing them on NXT.
Alister Black is indeed one of the coolest and most bad ass dude I've seen in awhile. The fact that his theme is done by both Incendiary and Code Orange is amazing.
@caleb b same dude
@Link Breath Of The Wild fuck it lmao
@Viva La Vivas I know. He has so much potential and they're doing nothing with it. But I knew it was gonna happen the moment he was called up.
ANRCY0AZRAEL Aleister Black should be competing for the championship 💯🔥
Link Breath Of The Wild sure kid
To Triple H, I would like to make a small request-
Many years ago, a Black Metal band called Type O Negative created their own version of Kane's entrance music, entitled "Out Of The Fire (Kane's Theme)", a song that came from Peter Steele, who was a big fan of Kane. The song is instrumental (no lyrics), so there's nothing to break any ears with cursing, and the FCC gets all upset.
Thank you.
T.O.N. wasn't Black Metal, they were Doom Metal/Goth Metal.
Type o negative never played black metal but gothic/doom metal
@@dariovargas8843 with a little bit of punk check out the Oregon of The Feces or Life is Killing me album.
Seeing Paul talk like this makes me feel like he is a genuinely great dude. So much love for raw emotion translating through music and wrestling. What’s best is that this doesn’t seem forced and I want more interviews as a result. Good work guys
Trippy interview, just realized wrestling got me in to metal 😮
Same. Got me into Limp Bizkit lol
Edge using Rob Zombie as his theme helped pull me in back in the day \m/
I started later in life and my favorite was This Fire by Killswitch which was CM Punk's intro. It also really kickstarted me into metal!
Guitar Hero 2 got me into metal lol
Ethan G through the fire and the flames 🔥
Triple h have one of the best and coolest entrance music in wwe. The mighty motorhead ☺
Triple H became one of my favourites wrestlers just by including slipknot in NXT
"I can't wait until we go to Japan."
Ah... so the rumors of WWE trying to launch NXT Japan are true.
And apparently eventually NXT Australia... only time will tell 🤔🤷🏻♀️
I want that Babymetal theme songs performed live :V
I miss his long hair and handle bar moustache!!!
Lmao he never had a handlebar moustache
@@satanamogila9251
You must be young haha he did rock the handle bar stache
@@jbc00per I think he had it in 2003 and then went back to his signature beard in 2004
@@satanamogila9251 lmao you know nothing.
@@satanamogila9251 I meant mutton chop moustache. Just like Lemmy from Motorhead who played his theme song.
I love NXT even more when Triple H brought the enigma and dark artist *Poppy* to sing both new songs for her new album (2020) and enter the ring with Io Shirai, who is a total fan of robotic-slow-turn-human *Poppy.*
Eagle D. Kōzui That. Was. Fucking. Awesome.
Poppy was always so creepy, and I wasn't a huge fan of her for the longest time, but when she put out I Disagree, It definitely caught me off guard. I'm now hooked.
@@medranothelion *Scary Mask* was my first exposure of her. And when I saw her past music videos, it thrown me on a loop of what character she represented back then before she freed herself from T.S after revealing what happened IRL. Now, she's living life and is showing more humanity in her character. Is incredible.
Whenever Triple H isn't talking, he's watching the guy like he's deciding when to suplex him
Dude does such a good interview. He's really well spoken, and down to earth. You feel like you can relate to him.
Motörhead should be in the wwe hall of fame.
I agree. Would love them to be in the WWE HOF rather than the rock and roll HOF
Omg! Yes long live Lemmy!!
Why
@@DifferenceTooStoned You shall go see WrestleMania X7
@@matteop700 wrestlemania X7 is my all time favorite mania from the hardcore match to the insane tlc and rock vs austin.. I'll never forget that limp bizkit promo package they used
Dont forget when Eric Rowan wore Amon Amarth merch on Smackdown
Patrick Hanlon on raw 2 days ago he had a despised icon shirt
Patrick Hanlon and a Kreator one lol
He also wore a Parkway Drive shirt to Hell In A Cell
And Gloryhammer, Alter Bridge, Metallica.. all sorts of bands!
ITMeCE Edge with Metalingus by Alter Bridge , Seth Rollins with the instrumental of Redesign, Rebuild, Reclaim by Downstraight, Batista with Walk Alone by Saliva, so many more
Metal + Wrestling = ONE OF THE GREATEST COMBINATIONS 🤘
I got into hard rock and heavy metal because of WWE PPV theme songs and video game soundtracks back in the day. Through WWE I got into bands like Saliva, Alter Bridge, Breaking Benjamin, Disturbed, Three Days Grace, Nonpoint, Skillet, and once they used Metallica for the No Mercy 2008 theme I developed my own separate passion for heavy metal.
Always made me feel like a wrestler was legit when they had proper, instantly recognisable entrance music. I think that's overlooked far too often, and it's one of the things NXT gets right regularly.
Crazy that Stephanie Mcmhons favorite album is Ride the lightning
@Space Case I watched an interview where she said RTL was the first album she bought.
Space case she has a good taste!
Get a girl or woman like steph😍😍
And Justice for All is better And Metallica sucked after the release of the justice album
@@arvindshastry1178
To each their own.
RTL is my shit for sure
"Triple H is a mystery
Full of changes that everybody see
Clock makes a fool of history
The shovel is too long ago
Everybody agree with what I know
NXT is the place to be"
What shovel?
Dont say shovel,why boss's daughter choose him?because he is damn good.
HHH is the reason I got into Motorhead and to this day they are one of my favorite bands I can listen to anytime anywhere.
Also the very first wrestling merch I ever got was the DX dog tags that I begged my parents to buy for me online. Imagine a 10 year old kid trying to convince his parents to buy dog tags featuring the crosschops and the asses hanging out in the back of the tags lol
HHH is a certified legend in my book, always will be 🤘🏻
Having poppy be the theme of Wargames last year was a great time. Really set the tone for the show and her playing io shirai to the ring was great
HHH is the man, NXT is the only wrestling show worth it for me.
And yeah, metal is not televised or radioed but it's still HUGE and i'm proud of it.
I appreciate that Triple H brought metal back to wrestling. It's a great combo
Vince: how I bought Entertainment to wrestling.
Steph: how I bought women’s wrestling to WWE.
HHH: how I bought Metal to NXT.
Shane: how I bought diving off things to the WWE.
Brought?
Did he tho?
Russo: how i killed wcw
Jim Ross: How I made falling off a cage seem awesome.
Schiavone: I use to be over
Taz: what the hell do I know
No goddamn doubt that Triple H is a metal ambassador. "Cerebral Assassin" alone could easily be the name of a metal band.
Nah cerebral assassin sounds like a hit for the band king of kings on their the game album.
Makes since I haven’t heard 1 good WWE /hip hop/rap song since Mark Henry’s 3 6 Mafia track. Rock and Rap got a special place In my heart
Triple H has probably the most badass entrance song ever!
Probably.. for me its a flip flop between him and Brock Lesnar.
Sorry, Stone Cold has the best Theme music entrance. No words just BROKEN FUCKING GLASS!!!!!
Facts wrestlemania 18 entrance is legend still
Wow, I'm really impressed by Triple H's understanding of music and his view on NXT and everything around it. It's really his baby! 🤘
This is amazing but retroactively sad considering what they did to NXT after he had his recent health scare & how some of Triple H's favorites wound up thanks to Vince
I hope they bring back Killswitch engage
Eh...
Only with Howard
Howard's era
soccerbeast10 the band that made that one song that became CM Punk’s first theme
I get metal recommendations (loudwire and others) and WWE recommendations (WhatCulture and others), this video was quite the crossover
Is there a part 2 of where triple h talks about his favorite bands
Always loved how HHH was/is a metal fan
for the rest of his life he will do great things for nxt and wrestling in general to make up for his horrible reign of terror in the early 2000s.
keep it up paul
i liked his reign of terror, it ended exactly when it shouldve
@@finalmonth booker t disagrees
frank unodostres still mad about him getting buried🤣
frank unodostres why do people still blame hhh for the booker t incident. Clearly it was Vinces call, he buried so many of the wcw guys
Horrible? He was the best thing ever happened lol
Highly recommend you watch HHH's speech at Lemmy's funeral. Some great stories 🤟🏼
I could listen to this man talking for DAYS! I love Triple H and his work in NXT is a bless. Thank you Hunter
Triple H is a well respected legend ! Has done alot for the culture as well as Stone Cold Steve Austin
I can't wait for Triple H to fully take over the WWE. Vince still has his old mentality of running things. It's a shame.
If someone ever decides to make a live action god of war movie hhh has to play the role of kratos
I'd agree if it weren't for how awful he's been in any acting role he's taken.
@@GoochTaylor yh id just say christopher judge the guy who voices him because he acts already. If you want a white actor then chris hemsworth could probably do a gd job
@@GoochTaylor he is a professional wrestler , his job is acting soo no he is actually a decent actor
@@wedenganey8091 oh dear fuck...
Triple H is one of the best superstars in WWE and NXT is his greatest creation that the fans enjoy. Motörhead giving Triple H The Game and King of Kings are one of the best songs to listen to. And since the late great Lemmy isn’t here with us Triple H still has Lemmy’s voice every time Triple H makes his entrance. Thank you Motörhead, thank you Lemmy, and thank you Triple H.🤘🤘🤘🤘
‘Time to Play the Game’ was my ringtone for years
BABYMETAL!!!!🤘🦊✨ this interview ended with naming the best! Word up yo! That’d be an excellent collaboration with Triple H!
I love this guy
Twins
Austin Jenkins rivalries
Same
This was a sick interview. Loved every second of it.
I will be right there with ya Triple H. Metal rules.
What he wanted did happen, I got into motionless in white because of NXT
Mr.Levesque is a freakin' god ! As a fan of heel wrestlers, he imo is one of the best ever, with maybe Ted Dibiase and Ric Flair. And what a smart guy !
Give praise to HHH for the awesome work he does with NXT.
Also, what HHH said is true - not "underground vs mainstream", but "GOOD vs BAD".
Yeah, I cannot imagine Triple H listening to Motionless In White or Architects.
Lol cant picture him listening to justin bieber
because he listens to quality heavy metal and not garbage :)
Architects would work well for the application.
@@satanicaleve Oof, coming from someone with the name "Satanical" I can tell you listen to a lot of K-Pop
@@dntinker They already had Doomsday for NXT UK
I miss seeing him do his "The Game" entrance.
Alien weaponry 🤘🤘🤘
Do they have a nxt song now!!!?!??!?!?!?
He’s starting to sound more and more like Randy Savage. Kind of ironic!
He sounds nothing like him.
i get the joke, but no....
@@kev1nno the joke is that its always been a rumor that Savage slept with Stephanie and now she is trips wife.
@@TheRealAb216 Everyone knows that its not a rumor... He did in fact sleep with 16 year old Stephanie. Isn't it awesome to know that one of your fav wrestlers and idol was a borderline pedophile? Life is just weird.
It's not a fact it started as a fan made rumor on a website
I would love to see them incorporate some of the older bands too like Death Angel, and Testament into their shows
This is why Triple H is the goat! Not just because he likes metal music but because of the way he talks about the future talent, up and coming wrestlers and musicians. He isn't one of these guys reliving his glory days he has no problem stepping back and that's what makes him great.
I agree all what Triple H said about music and performer and I would love him as my boss. Not to mention that I agree what types of music you listen to are broken down to what you like vs you don’t like and that’s it. And I use to role play to wrestling games and I made my human self as a wrestler under my human alias which is not Bruzo Dragonius. I am a metal head myself and I use to have songs from bands like Anthrax, Bullet for my Valentine and Shadows Fall as my theme. But if I could’ve had access to the CDs I wanted Killing in the name of by Rage Against the Machine or Psychosocial by Slipknot as my theme as a wrestler.
And that's how nxt is better than raw and smackdown
We are not your kind
We are NXT
haha misc better solidgoldivan
kek what a mark
If you're not my kind then you be yourself and relax and be cool but everything else in life
NXT NXT NXT The A show.
Aew is better
As an AEW guy, I like how NXT and AEW are seen as alternative brands from RAW and Smackdown. Even though NXT and AEW are “competing” they both are great and show that it’s a great time to be a wrestling fan.
It's amazing that HHH can connect the making of NXT to the popularity of rock music in wrestling.
Yes wen lzzy did embers song was so sick loved it love hailstorm
@That Boy T yup my bad i spelled it wrong
This man is was my influence for wrestling and heavy metal
Thank you Triple H
Love the fact that he could have just spoken about nXt he always brought the conversation back to music
Wow, this is a fucking FANTASTIC interview. This guy did his homework. Not a single question was cookie-cutter or an easy lay-up for HHH to answer. Everything was very thoughtful and found a piece of new info.
Great work, Graham. And kudos to HHH for the terrific answers. That guy is the perfect choice to be running NXT and I hope he gets to run the Big Company someda...
DID HE SAY "WORK WITH BABYMETAL?" PLEASE DO THAT.
Yeah, cooperation with Babymetal just sounds right
I didn’t think I’d be a bigger Triple H fan than I’ve already been. Love this man.
Because of wrestling I’m so into rock and metal one of my major influences seeing sandman making his way into the ring in one night stand was one of those moments
Rock and metal are definitely back on the rise I feel. 🤘🏻
Glad this video exists.
NXT is the reason why I got into Code Orange, Power Trip and Alien Weaponry (hell, even Billie Eilish)
Jack Conor Ria you should get into iced earth
Billie eilish is over rated
@Richard Valdez he's just saying that NXT introduced him to the artist. Nothing to do with the love for metal.
HeCTiiC MIKE to each their own. I don’t really care what people listen to. Just listen to what you like and don’t be the twat that tells people what to enjoy
Triple H: smacks lips before starting sentence
The analogy is so good. It's funny how I was not so much into metal but indie music when I was younger, and my 2nd passion came with wrestling, and NXT was my favorite soon as it became hot (Neville vs Bo Dallas was the first match I remember). It felt the same, like indie music, small venue, passionate crowd, and a raw performance.
Thank you H, you gave wwe fans the best in wrestling (yeah I know njpw and aew are great too, just a preference)
Seeing NXT at Download Festival was one of those unexpected moments that I'll remember forever.
Triple H baptized me into Metal with his Motorhead intro
Nxt is the main roster!!
Graham is a lucky dude, just gets to chat with all these incredible people.
If they work with a local band in Cardiff. I de like to see them work with Dream State. Their from the Mountain Ash area of of South Wales.
Please tell me you guys also did a Wikipedia Fact Or Fiction with Triple H
Yes.
He refuses to say "Indies/Indy" LOL!
Because metal music isn't indies
HHH is the kind of person every kid who grows up and wants to be with that cool uncle we all love
LMAO 😂😂😂
I remember watching Wrestlemania 21 and triple H came out to Motörhead live
#Wearenotyourkind #NXT
Nxt. Slipknot
SD. AC/DC.
Raw. Skillet
Is there any possibility of using a Pantera song as an official theme for a Takeover
🤘🤘
I like Triple H even more now! I wonder what type of metal he gets in to. Would love to listen to one of his playlists to get pumped at the gym.
I've always described NXT as a throwback to the old Territory TV shows...and H^3 books it like his mentor Dusty (RIP) booked the old NWA/WCW shows when I was a kid in the 80's...
Triple h was like watching main roster ppvs And like, "hey you know what would be cool? Good wrestling And metal"
