Mick Foley is one of the best sellers of the pedigree. That one pedigree against Mankind is still one of the most brutal looking pedigree ever.
Thats because he would fall horizontal face first rather than on his knees
Got nothing on Marty Garner's sell.
@@guyverjay1289 That's how you're supposed to land. Foley, Angle, Jericho always took it like they're supposed to.
Cause he would actually take the REAL deal pedigree haha
This was a brutal move to take when he used to hold the arms the whole down during the drop. It wasnt til mid 2000s or so when he eased up by releasing the arms.
Triple H's character is the coolest in my opinion because he put so much into its development. Hunter Hearst Helmley. A blue blood aristocrat in the style of Talleyrand. Pedigree fitted. Yet as he evolved into a hated but fierce villain, he kept the name and abbreviated HHH into Triple H.
Thanks for the history lesson.
It’s so great to hear Hunter talk about his career like this. So glad he was able to have a fantastic run and walk away from it. Truly one of the greats.
❤❤❤
That country accent from HHH is something I didn’t know I needed to hear lmao
I wish I can meet him in person and thank him for giving my childhood the best wrestling moments
Him talking about how he introduced the Pedigree reminds of one of Steve Austin's podcasts with Heyman about people being too scared to really think for themselves or push back against bad ideas. Triple H knew the Pedigree was good but WWF wanted him to do a different move. He wasn't sure about it but gave it a try. It didn't turn out good, he knew it needed changed, and he showed them the move he actually wanted to do.
More of these young wrestlers need to learn from their predecessors.
Or y’know. Upstairs need to learn from from past mistakes and let talent have some sort of creative over their character.
@@xMikeyHardyx Then the wrestlers need to show upstairs that their ideas suck and the wrestler's ideas rock. Again, they need to not simply be sheep that bow to whatever management wants.
@@randomlyentertaining8287 bruv have you not heard the horror stories from the AEW roster from when they worked for Vince?
Aew is what happens when wrestlers are allowed to do whatever they want 🤮. Definitely needs to be balance
everybody acting as though the sponsors who give wwe all their money arent more important than giving superstars creative freedom. it's hard to balance the business end of wrestling, wwe has sponsors that dont even want to see blood on their network cuz it promotes hardcore violence (sure it makes no sense cuz wrestling is violence) but you cant really blame wwe for trying to ensure everything always falls under the bracket of what the sponsors want
Shawn Michaels is the only member of the Kliq whose finish didn't involve his opponent's head between his legs.
I thought Razors Edge the opponent was on Scott Halls back?
@@theofficialgreenkane9645 it starts like any other power bomb or pile driver, though- with the other guy's head between his legs
@@theofficialgreenkane9645 yea but it starts off like a powerbomb
No it's not
@@theofficialgreenkane9645 Look how it starts brother.

I miss his long hair, I miss his DX controversy, and I'll miss his wrestling career
Me too
Same bro im just glad i was able to see it🙏🏾
He would look ridiculous at this point in his life if he still had the long hair. Same goes for Michaels, way too much hair loss to be able to pull off long hair at their ages.
Paul seems like such a chill dude man, I'm glad he's doing well for himself after that scary incident. Stay safe man! You're definitely the pinnacle when it came to heels during the attitude era.
Paul is Hunter right?
@@thomashester2 yes his real name is Paul Levesque
I met Paul backstage in 2003 he was super nice and every event I went to he would recognize me and come over to say hi
If by chill you mean a back stabbing, ass kissing racist then yeah he's a pretty chill dude
@@S.T.A.N.D_inspirational HHH said in an interview in 2000, "most times, the bad guys are the nicest guys backstage, and the good guys aren't."
Glad you had a good moment with him. Was he intimidating?
This dude does incredible interviews. Would love to see a sit down with all the attitude era guys telling stories.
Dustin and Cody Rhodes tell some of the best stories.
Yeah about how he cheated on his fiancé Chyna, had her new husband Stephanie get daddycakes to fire her AND blackball her from every wrestling promotion, and the of course see her kill herself. Then he can talk about how himself(hhh-the Gay-maa!!) & the shitstain kid Shawn Michelle used, walked on, ridiculed, humiliated, and ruined the careers of. Yeah that would be EPIC! The GAY-MAA, the Cerebral-naa Assissin-naaa! The butt-taa kisser-raa of Vincent-taa Mc🐓🐓🐓🐓🐓!
Remember Vince loves 🐓❤🐓😍🐓💖🐓❣🐓💕🐓❤🐓!!
Rock ,Austin, taker, hhh and hbk would be nice
You'd get a load of bullsh#t
One of the greatest finishers ever, same echelon as the Tombstone, RKO, Stunner and Sweet Chin Music. Fits the character perfectly and believable as a finish
But the best move probably ever is the Kata Ha Jime aka tazzmission.
Once your in that move kiss your ass goodbye...
th-cam.com/video/2sdfYp-MToc/w-d-xo.html
Survive.... if I let you!!!
That’s incredible. Triple H really did pay his dues to become one of the best that ever did it. I appreciate all the work he’s done 💯💯💯💯🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾
hhh thinks people like us shouldnt be world champs
@jordan bailey I honestly don’t believe that. I mean for his character it fits because he’s greater as a heel than a baby face. But he’s had greater success running NXT than Vince had running Raw and Smackdown. On NXT everybody has a chance to become champ. I know it’s not world champ, but at least it prepares them to transition to the main brand and become a world champion.
@@kaibricturner8836 have you not heard the th spanish announce team speaking about hhh making racist jokes to their faces or mark henry talk about hhh and hbk's "hazing" antics black face on tv what else bro
@jordan bailey You have your own thoughts and feelings about the man and that’s fine, but I’m a fan of his and I’m gonna always be a fan. The same goes with Shawn Michaels. I’m sure everyone in that business has something they’d like to erase at some point in time because certain things don’t age well. We see it in film, television and literature. On camera and behind the scenes. Mark Henry has the right to feel how he feels and so does Booker T. I’m a fan of those guys too. It takes time to grow out of old habits and behaviors and some take longer than others. So I don’t hold a grudge over Shawn and Hunter. They’re all hard working guys who’ve dedicated to their lives to the art of pro wrestling and put the necessary time and effort in to hone their skills for it. They have my respect and that’s all I want to show.
By paying his dues do you mean marrying the bosses daughter and kissing the boss between the cheeks?
Cool story like hearing him tell stories as well
The Butterfly Facebuster aka the Pedigree. I like how Triple H created it and I didn't even know Michael Hayes gave the name that's awesome
It would be to see HHH have his own podcast, you can tell he knows his wrestling outside of WCW and WWE.
He's certainly got the time to do it now.
❤❤❤
My brother, a few cousins, and I had a sleepover as kids and one of the things we did was wrestle WWE style on the floor, little to no pillows. Long story short I hit the Pedigree on my brother, knock him out, and we thought I killed him. Don't try this at home right 😂
The hardway pedigree was just undoubtedly one of the best finishers of all time, it's a shame that the damage to his knees/quads meant the move had to change. Foley taking the move will always be my favourite
gru knowing his wrestling moves. hunter being kind calling his first finisher an RKO and graham calling it a cutter
pedigree always been a unique move to me i never seen it before hhh and never after (obviously rollins used it) but never seen it used by other ppl and its a great finish
Punk used to use a top rope version as a finish in his ROH days
@@Justinjubes never watched roh
Of course you never seen it before. Because HHH created the move. It's his.
The pedigree is the easiest move to do with the most effective.
Michael Hayes really is a savior to every wrestler's career by letting them the freedom they deserves to have some of the iconic finishers like RKO, Pedigree, even the Stone Cold Stunner.
Iconic finisher just like his spine busters just pure perfection 👌
That’s very brutal.the giants version.
yea...but in todays wrestling world guys would kick out of 20 of them ....
Every time i hear a wrestler talk about wcw, they’re always saying how much of a mess it was. Imagine how different wrestling would be if they actually knew what they were doing
Lol
True enough. The talent, the stories, the various stuff that just came together, they really could have done more if they had a better head on their shoulders and had thought more long-term.
When I started watching wrestling I liked way better
The victors get to write the history books not the losers. It was not nearly as bad as some claimed. Things were sunshine and rainbows in the WWF either.
Wcw was comedy wrestling
Wait so HHH Created his own finisher move ? That's fire
Damn straight.
Did we watch the same interview?
They literally showed footage of Andre doing a "proto-pedigree" in Japan years before HHH was in the WWF.
All he did was get in trouble for using the "Diamond Cutter" without permission... and making it look like absolute SHIT, then gave an incredibly dull name to a move he saw performed years ago and called it his finisher.
@@thisisnotachannel ok Todd.
@@thisisnotachannel well you obviously didn’t watch the same interview then because he clearly states he didn’t know about that until a year or two ago.
@@RandomCommentKid101 Yep. He said he learned it from watching Killer Kowalski not Andre. But I guess he modified it not invented it.
The pedigree when who hold the arms looked so brutal to take. Props to Foley and many others that were willing to take that shit. I know he broke a bunch of noses and messed up the botch piledriver one
The secret is to kick out your legs and land chest first. Really stick that chest out. if you try to catch it with a knee, you're faceplanting. Source: I've taken a few in my backyard wrestling days
@@DoomRater that's known as the Kane bump
The piledriver botch was the other guy not listening to Hunter and assuming he was going for a Tiger Bomb. Can't exactly blame the guy doing the move if the guy taking it doesn't do the right bump after being shown beforehand what the move looks like.
Anyone notice BOTH the "Pedigree and Stunner" were changed to be safer at some point after the Attitude era?
With the Pedigree, he used to hold the person's arms the entire time and I assume they would turn their head to not smash their face/nose into the ring (or use their chest, IDK but it looked dangerous)
Later he started releasing their arms right before impact (I assume) so the person could use their hands and keep from their face/cheek from smashing the ring as hard (less strain on the spine also)
He also would lean over more slap his hands onto their back to add to the impact.
With the Stunner, people used to land on their knees
(which height differences and timing was said that it could mess your jaw up) and some time after the attitude era, I notice in clips that the person taking the Stunner would just squat down while staying on their feet!
Not sure if for safety reasons or so it could be sold better (like the Rock would do) by doing a "jack in the box" sell factor, being their feet were still flat on the mat.
I guess this stuff isn't explained in shoot interviews.
In around 1987 or maybe 1988 I got into a fight with another kid. I kicked him in the stomach and then gave him a pedigree. Obviously, it wasn’t ever done in professional wrestling before other than when Andre, faced Onoki, as Triple H noted but anytime that I saw Hunter do it, it always reminded me of that fight that I got into with that other kid.
“Remember that time I smashed somebody’s face?” Type vibes 😭
🧢
What’s the name of the movie?
Triple H started his career in the 90s.
@@thinkingagain5966 🤣
One of the best...maybe the best heel ever
HHH is awesome. Love watching him even as a heel
I feel bad for trips man. With the heart stuff and losing control of his product. And has to watch his stars get released and ruined. Hope the best for him. Will always miss old nxt
Andre clip aside, I always assumed the pedigree was borrowed from someone else.
"The Outlaw" Ron Bass usually did a finishing facebuster it in 1988 without holding the arms, though on a few occasions he did hook the arms and it looked exactly like a pedigree. Hard to say..
Yeah, when Triple H started using it, that is who I thought of. I do not think Bass ever did the double under hooks, but it was a fast first piledriver move.
But that footage of Andre was before 88 so really think about it
I love hearing the shoot videos. They make me more interested in wrestling.
Low key one of the best finishers
My favorite wrestler of all time 🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼 Triple H
4:22 I've heard so many guys say that about that era. 'Go to WWF, Vince will make you a star'. And he did.....WWF had a ridiculous amount of talent that they built up themselves, and pushed all the guys that left WCW and came to them to greater things in their careers....Chris Jericho, Eddie Guerrero, Chris Benoit, Big Show. They made so many stars. Which is why its so baffling as to why they get it so wrong in the current era. Its hard to believe its the same company that gave us the attitude era, then Ruthless Aggression... its been a steady decline since then.
His Michael Hayes impression is spot on 😂😂
Triple H doing a Michael Hayes impression was something I didn’t know I needed in my life
I always understood it as the pedigree was a variation of somthing where the arm or something stuck out (and maybe the move was different) and HHH changed it to what it became.
Vince knows how to talk to his super stars
Even tho I knew all of this, great video and format. Subbed
It’s amazing how the most smallest details of a character can really define who a wrestler is
It's all about the game, and how you play it.
Paul is such a LEGEND ✨💫
The most loved Badass in WWE - HHH
Did you know? Vince was the one who performed the best Pedigree in history while Triple H selling it.
Good interview

One reason people could then sell it better by propelling themselves as if ricocheting upward and back.
HHH is my all-time fav wrestler
Said he wanted to be the best.
Ended up becoming a legit legend.
I always saw the Pedigree as a piledriver. It looks like it early in the WWF. But when he released the arms on hitting the mat it became a facebuster.
One of the greatest finishers of all time.
Hi. Thank you for someone who didnt know triple h was a reverse ship jumper! My whole life i thought he had a start from a similarr ovw gym scenario!
Hunter needs his own podcast. Seriously.
One of the best finishers period!
I watched another interview recently wherein it was stated that Trips was happy to stop using the Cutter because he and DDP were friends and he knew how important it was to protect a finish. Page counted this as Hunter being a real standup guy. The alternate take here is…interesting.
Years ago, and I mean 10+, I saw the interview you’re talking about. 100%, the story was that DDP asked HHH directly to not use it and HHH agreed, none of this ddp speaking to someone else to get hhh to not do it and him being relieved.
So fun seeing Trip years after the reign of terror
Wow that Andre move was dangerous. Axial compression of the neck with twisting.
Dude said get out of here Vince will make you a Star. Correct! Many companies believe that WWE is the weaker Brand. Nope.
Sincerely,
Pedigree is a brand for dog food.
Pedigree Definition : distinguished, excellent, or pure ancestry.
@@RyzenZegend Yeah... it's also a dog food brand.
Fact.
@@thisisnotachannel Yeah thats sold around the world as Quality.....hence the name Pedigree.
@@brocklesnar3802 also considering he was apart of the blue bloods the name fits
Andre used the tombstone first too, Andre was such an innovator.
Legend!!
My favorite finisher, its like the embodiment of saying f*ck you
The move has the "Bury them" vibe too which kinda goes with his "The king" gimmick
1980’s mid carder Outlaw Ron Bass used a very similar move to the pedigree as his finisher.
Thank you Hunter

With Triple h, everything is funny😂
Everybody seems to agree that Triple H's transferring to WWE was the best career move for him at the time.
Yet...
nobody has considered that this decision effectively deprived the world of _Triple H vs Wright II._
Andre's the GOAT. That pre-pedigree was brutal.
I remember the first time I saw the pedigree I cringed at how brutal it looked. Hook the arms and drop your opponent on his face...
Triple H was one of my favorites during the Attitude era and it's always interesting to see him out of character.
💪🏼
I like Trips but he literally followed up talking about how little money he was being paid in WCW and how he turned down a multi year deal because of it with “It’s not about the money”.
The Pedegree is what made Triple H a 14 time world champion
That piledriver Andre gave Inoki was brutal. Damn
He was lucky. Im sure he suffered a legit concussion from that
DDP may not have invented but none has every done it so many different ways or better than him fullstop .
easily a top 5 finisher, ever
Killer - Your name is Terrorizer. Paul - But I want a first and last name!
Killer - Done! Terra Rizin!
The Warrior didn't even wanna sell it. 😂😂😂
I loved Hunter's name in WCW. Terror Rising
Imagine HHH doing the RKO permanently instead of changing to the Pedigree.
Crazy to hear we nearly had HHH using the RKO / cutter as a finisher
That is ironic cuz Orton ends up using the move
Andrea was the first to do the Tombstone as well.
Considering he landed Steph and a perm exec job I'd say he made some good moves
I thought it said why I started using PEDS would’ve been some refreshing honesty
We'd do the "suck it" at football game's. 😆🤦🏾
I never knew HHH was in WCW!
His voice sounds different compared to when he was more younger

He DID invent the CUTTER!! DDP !

@@seaniekay we all know this ... but noone ... not even Johnny thought it was great until Dallas made it famous!
@@seepack2910 I must admit the way he would pull it off of different moves it gave it that mystique of it was dangerous because it could happen at any moment In the match so you would be glued to the match waiting for it too happen.
