#4 DDP asks Triple H to stop using the Diamond Cutter

WWE legend Triple H had a brief stint in WCW in the 90s before he made his way to WWE in 1995. Soon After Triple H debuted in WWE, he began using the Diamond Cutter. Around the same time, DDP was popularizing the move over in WCW, and he decided to call Triple H to talk about the situation.

I didn't force Triple H to stop using the move, but I asked him if he could stop doing it as his shot as a favor. He said there was no problem and he never used it again because we were friends. That says a lot about Triple H. He is a close friend and a classy person.

Triple H adopted the Pedigree soon after, and the rest is history. The Pedigree quickly became one of the most devastating moves in all of WWE and was instrumental in Triple H becoming one of the biggest Superstars in WWE history. Both Triple H and DDP are WWE Hall of Famers today, courtesy of their contributions towards the business as in-ring performers.
