Very late upload. I messed up and should've timed this one better. That said, Triple H showed up during this run. Stephanie complimented him and he was on his way to becoming the final boss of the WWE. He had some great matches and programs with Mick Foley and The Rock, they brought out the best in him and helped make 2000 one of WWF's best years. What did you think of Triple H's title reign?
@@tmd9569 he won the night after summerslam but lost it 3 weeks later to Vince on Smackdown. He regained it about a week later at Unforgiven in the 6 Pack Challenge
HHH's 3rd as WWF champion is one of WWE's most memorable runs in history. His classic wars with Rock and Foley while having McMahons and DX by side definitely catapulted Triple H into another level of superstardom and cemented his status as an certified main eventer and WWE's notorious top heel.
Imagine if he had a heel Shawn at his side or a face Shawn to fight. That would have been glorious. Of course, I know about the 2002-2004 feud, but I'm thinking what might have been if they moved that one to this time period.
This was where Triple H really came into his own and showed he could carry the WWF Championship in programs. It certainly didn't hurt that he had Mick Foley and The Rock as his main foils during this time too. It really felt like everything came together well looking back. Hopefully this get more likes so we can see you do the Rock's run with the championship too, but it really only continues the excellence and also if memory serves, reintroduces The Undertaker as the American Bad Ass.
This title run is really what cemented Triple H as a main eventer in the WWE going forward. The first two title reigns didn't do it; they felt like his push was forced. But this reign was what he needed and it made him a certified star. 2000 was really The Game's year (well, he and The Rock's to be specific)
@@topdawg2916 being the bigger draw doesn't make you the better wrestlers, entertainer? sure but not wrestler and better matches??? Come on bro that's definitely not true . And in wrestling "a hero is only as good as his villian" and triple h arguably rocks best rival and being the ultimate heel to the rock is a big part why is was so fun to watch much.
@@jakebro3204 dude the rock was a bigger drawore entertaining had more iconic moments more memorable matches dude triple h is a better in ring worker than the rock but overall the rock is better bigger drawpre entertaining more iconic segments more iconic matches and storylines
This era alone should show the recent critics of hhh after his retirement that he was “more than a mid carder in the attitude era” as some ppl said. He came into his own as a heel character, adding on to his 99 run. I feel like hhh’s quad injury ruined him bc he felt like he was still the same wrestler from 2000 when he wasn’t
The only people who think triple h is a mid carder are the young ones who weren't alive or old enough to remember this era. They see him married to Stephanie and assume that's why he was so big. They don't realize he was already heading to be a top heel before him and Steph really started getting together. If he never married Stephanie, he would still be one of the greatest of all time. Especially one of the best heels. He may not be CEO or CTO, but he would definitely still be one of the best and probably still working with WWE in some capacity. People need to appreciate the game, he was really good. On the Mic and in the ring. Especially in 99 and on.
If austin and rock only ever fought each other during the attitude era, it wouldn't have been as great. The fire would've died out. Angle hhh jericho taker in the mix and rotating feuds kept rock and austin on fire when they weren't battling each other and it was the perfect mix of guys.
It’s crazy to me how during the Attitude Era, the champion would “feel like” defending his championship on Raw. They really got away from that the past 20 years.
I'm a Ruthless Aggression guy - that was my introduction to wrestling - and sometimes I get upset I missed this era. But watching these videos allows me to piece the era together without investing a ridiculous amount of hours to watching it on the WWE network.
I haven’t watched this video yet but I already know it’s going to be good. I always ask people on TH-cam how come HHH’s first big push isn’t documented as much as everything else. Also the HHH vs The Rock rivalry from 97-00. . That was literally the best time in wrestling history. No matter how you may feel about HHH he held it down while Stone Cold was out.
It’s crazy to look back and see how involved referees were back then 😭 nowadays they barely have any importance to a story and I love it when they have everyone involved in an angle cuz it gives it more depth and juice
cactus jack made hhh a star solidified him and he also made randy orton. hhh vs cactus jack is one of me and my dads favorite matches top 10 of all time for sure
I remember when DX brought in a bunch of homeless during thanksgiving and just had them staring at plates of food but not letting them eat it, 😂 good times
this is what true heels in todays modern wrestling for both WWE and AEW are lacking, hell im gonna say all the companies these days are lacking. What guys like triple h, jbl, randy orton, edge did back in the days made you despise them to the point you tihnk its real and cant wait for them to get whats theirs. I just dont feel that anymore with todays heel wrestlers.
The issue is that most heels today are just as popular with fans as the babyfaces. They both get huge pops from the fans when they come to the ring so it's hard to tell who is who. Heels today are just more likeable if that makes any sense.
The backstage politics aside, HHH was one of the greatest heels of all time. I loved the Rock as a kid, and every great hero needs a great antagonist. HHH was that antagonist. I HATED him. I don't think I ever detested a heel more than I did HHH after his victory in the Iron Man match vs. Rock at Judgement Day 2000. Him being with the bosses daughter only added to his villainy. He was never going to overtake Rock or Stone Cold in popularity, but I'll be damn if he wasn't the perfect foil. His importance to that era from '99 - '01 can't be overstated. We needed someone to love to hate, and he played the role to perfection.
Lol I’m Not Going To Lie As A Kid I Thought Wrestling Was A TV Show Based Off Triple H/DX, Stephanie, & The McMahons As The Villains & The Rock, Kane, Undertaker, & Mankind We’re The Super Hero’s & Stone Cold Was The Anti Hero Who Didn’t Like Nobody 😂😂 I Didn’t Get Into WWF Until 1999 In Kindergarten
Can some one tell me hhh 2nd title run? I know no.1 is raw after SummerSlam against mankind. But I thought this was his 2nd one after beating big show on raw

This title reign was godly but the Rock should have fought one on one with HHH at Wrestlemania and won. It might have saved Wrestlemania 2000. It's ironic how the most popular era in WWF/E history had some of the worst Wrestlemanias. The only good one was the last one. By good I mean awesome Wrestlemania. That being X7.
There’s another kid on TH-cam who’s copying u bro from the pic on the video go the way you explain your story but he’s a gen z so he be cuzinwor tried to by saying “freakin” “fudging” 🤣 like kid be creative bro do your own type of content dont try to swagger jack my boy here he’s the real OG
Sorry but I never viewed Triple H as a top tier main event guy. Great professional and he definitely is a great wrestler but in most of his biggest matches he was not the A side except maybe vs Y2J at WM 18
Let's be completely real here for a second, Foley is just a glorified stuntman who couldn't get over like a normal wrestler, he could only get over by damnn near killin himself literally, The McMahons just felt sorry for the bastard This is also when Big Shows career peaked!!! Yeahh he had title runs after but they only ever gave him the title when all the main stars were hurt and they needed someone loyal and could do the job whenever they needed him, other then that he was just another big man who only got a push because he was a big man Soo that brings us to the real stars of the match and company at the time Hunter and Rock....HHH may have slept and politic his wat to the top but you cannot fucking deny that he was an actual heel that was legit hated by everyone he had heat but it was never go away heat till the whole Authority shit......Rock well we all know what the Rock as a heel or face he was a fucking blast to watch especially as a kid....

I cant deny triple h is yhe greatest heel of 2000 and i bet nobody else cant neither. And this video made it justuce so huge thanks for the video!
Triple h is the greatest heel in years. For over 20 years he was WWE'S top heel
This was Triple H's first real good world title reign.
That and 2008
Triple H's Reaction to Mankind switching back to Cactus Jack was more of Dramatizing flashback of the last time him And CJ fought back in 97

This was When i became a die hard HHH fan even though i was a huge DX fan but him as a heel then pairing up with steph and the fam was fucking lit 💪🏾💯
Triple H’s third reign reminds me a lot of John Cena’s year long reign in 06-07 - which was coincidentally his third reign as well.
Coincidentally, it reminds me of Orton's reign during the "Age of Orton" in 07-08... Which was also 𝘩𝘪𝘴 third reign 😅😅
@@khathide22nd yeah, that too
Funny enough this reign reminds me alot of Roman Reigns year long ... Ah nvm

You need to watch it on the network. The back stage segments etc are what made this stuff outrageous and memorable!
I can always count on you for banger wrestling content! Thank you❤
This show's HHH was a top guy and carried the company with Rock and Austin. This shows how damn good he was. One of the best reigns in wwe history!
I absolutely enjoyed this video, especially your commentary! You just received a subscriber. Keep up the good work!
Dude said Rikishi “Backed That Ass Up” 🤣🤣 mane that made my day💯
LOL
Attitude Era had some of the wildest storylines and best matches.
I love the LONGER VIDEOS KEEP IT UP
I've been waiting for this hands down 2000 Triple H is the best run
Great memories of great moments of the attitude era! Great video upload!
Yo man, this video was incredible. I appreciate and commend the way u told the story and kept me involved and interested.
THANK YOU FOR THIS VIDEO!
This video reminded me how important the big show used to be in wwe programming
Nice champions League reference bro
Watched the whole thing. Excellent video.
it’s crazy i was just watching RAW reruns from ‘99 from Summerslam on what a coincidence with this upload
I first saw that no way out ppv on vcr! It’s my favorite ppv from top to bottom!

The rock was the one that held it down when stone cold got injured
@@topdawg2916 absolutely I didn’t forget the Rock but this video is about HHH .. they held it down together
@@deepeyton I agree still need that video on the rock in 2000 he was arguably the most over and popular wrelser in wrestling history that year
@@topdawg2916 facts…. The pops he got especially when he beat HHH at Backlash 2000 was probably the loudest shit I’ve ever heard
@@deepeyton the rock was megaover and popular that year to the point he hosted snl he was everywhere in pop culture during that time
Great championship reign!!!
I've never gotten sick of the game HHH, even now, he's still playing the game ❤❤😂😂
I love that theme song my time!!!
Hunter took the ball and ran with it point blank!!
Love the gta mission type intro you do for your videos
Good vid as always. Also love the San Andreas edit btw ♥
I literally laughed out loud at the Ben Simmons reference 😂😂
I love a random Ben Simmons shot
9:07 spat my drink everywhere when I heard this 😂😂😂
Great video, what a time to be a fan!
I started watching attitude era few months back enjoying a lot currently at wm2000
It’s crazy to look back and see how involved referees were back then 😭 nowadays they barely have any importance to a story and I love it when they have everyone involved in an angle cuz it gives it more depth and juice
Damm that Ben Simmons jab was lol nice shot at him @WrestlingPriemer
Awesome video bro
Fire 🔥
2000s Stephanie made 12yo me a man... boy she was and is everything I want in a woman.
This Era was my intro to wrestling! I loved the Rock and hated HHH!
Awesome title run by Triple H
cactus jack made hhh a star solidified him and he also made randy orton. hhh vs cactus jack is one of me and my dads favorite matches top 10 of all time for sure
And also heel steph was born
She underrated during that time
Wonder what team be ruins wp’s day 💀 also love the long vids man
I remember when DX brought in a bunch of homeless during thanksgiving and just had them staring at plates of food but not letting them eat it, 😂 good times
