The King of Kings completed the Grand Slam after becoming World Tag Team Champion alongside Steve Austin on the 29th of April, 2001.

Before this, he had won the WWE Championship, Intercontinental and European Championship. Much like Shawn Michaels, he has won all belts available apart from the Hardcore belt.

Triple H is arguably one of the all-time greats of this industry. He was the key driving force behind the Attitude Era, as he led the belligerent D-Generation X into becoming an iconic stable.

After that, he became a memorable heel in stables such as the McMahon-Helmsley faction, Evolution and the Authority.

He has also fit in as a babyface, creating wonderful moments in that role in the mid-2000's to around 2010.

Today, Triple H is the heel Chief Operating Officer on WWE TV, but the Executive Vice-president of Talent, Live Events and Creative behind the scenes.

He has been instrumental in the creation of NXT, and will probably be the next great booker in wrestling after Vince McMahon passes the book to his son-in-law.
