The Cerebral Assassin, Triple H, is one of the greatest athletes to ever lace a pair of boots. Through the last couple of decades, The Game has engaged in some of WWE's most memorable and historic moments. From winning countless championships to beating the best of the best, Hunter has done it all.
In recent years, Triple H has transitioned into a part-time role as an in-ring competitor, wrestling only a handful of times in a year. However, The Game has been a main-stay at WWE's grandest stage - WrestleMania. In fact, the last time he missed out on the show was thirteen years ago, in 2007, when he was in rehabilitation.
Last year, The King of Kings defeated arch-rival and longtime friend, Batista, in a No Holds Barred Match in what was the latter's final match in WWE. This year, the story is quite different. Royal Rumble has passed by and the Road to WrestleMania is under-way. The shocking bit is that Triple H has no ongoing storyline that could culminate in a match at WrestleMania.
Hunter is one of the few legends that has some gas left in the tank and WWE has a tendency to rely on part-timers for mega events like WrestleMania. Given his role backstage and his incredible physical condition, it's highly likely that the Game will be booked in a match for WrestleMania.
You can expect Triple H to wrestle at WrestleMania, the real question is who will his opponent be.

#3 King Corbin
Speaking of kings, the current King of the WWE kingdom happens to be Baron Corbin. Corbin won the prestigious King of the Ring tournament last autumn. Triple H won the King of the Ring tournament too and he likes to call himself 'The King of Kings.'
Corbin is one of the fastest-rising stars in WWE today. He has become a key player in the main-event scene and is one of WWE's biggest heels. Although Corbin versus Triple H might seem underwhelming at first thought, the rivalry has a lot to offer.
There are so many parallels between The Lone Wolf and The Cerebral Assassin. Both are extremely despicable as heels, and both have led dominant factions. Lastly, Vince McMahon admires them both. To help even the odds, Triple H could recruit some of his old buddies from D-Generation X, ensuring a fair one-on-one contest. Corbin could benefit immensely from a feud with Hunter. Even though the match wouldn't be a technical masterpiece, it would tell a great story.
2 Ricochet
'The One and Only' Ricochet is a phenomenal athlete who puts on a great show every single time he graces a ring. Currently, the former US Champion has a bone to pick with the WWE Champion, Brock Lesnar. The two rivals are scheduled to compete at WWE Super-ShowDown later in the month. Barring a miracle, Lesnar will probably retain the title and Ricochet will have to move on.
Triple H is one who has shown a keen interest to put over younger talent. He put over Daniel Bryan at WrestleMania 30, he did the same with Roman Reigns at WrestleMania 32 and Seth Rollins also went over the Game at WrestleMania 33. WWE's resident super-hero, Ricochet, has the potential to become a huge star in WWE someday. However, to accomplish that, he has to beat some of WWE's best and defeating Hunter would establish him as a force to be reckoned with.
Ricochet needs an impetus to catapult his career to great heights. The Game is the perfect candidate to provide that boost to him. As far as the match is concerned, their polar-opposite styles would make for an intriguing juxtaposition.
1.Aleister Black
Aleister Black's ascent to the peak of the mountain has been slow and methodical. It took him some time to find his footing on the main roster, but when he did, he gained the favor of WWE management. Monday Night RAW's Creative head, Paul Heyman, is said to have incredible faith in Black and is intent on pushing him to the moon. In fact, Black was reportedly considered as a potential challenger to Brock Lesnar at WrestleMania. The fact that Black has spent a little over a year on the main roster, and yet was considered for such a monumental position speaks volumes about WWE's faith in him.
The man from Amsterdam also happens to be one of Triple H's favorites. On NXT, Black had a long undefeated streak, faced off with NXT's cream of the crop and won the NXT Championship. On the main roster, Black owns victories over the likes of Cesaro, Sami Zayn and Buddy Murphy. With Heyman and Triple H firmly backing him, a bright future lies ahead of Black. Hunter would love to help one of his proteges get to the pinnacle of sports-entertainment.
Even though Black versus Lesnar would've been a great contest, Black versus Triple H is no less of a dream match. The awe-inspiring entrances would be a sight to behold. Black can have a good match with just about anyone, and The Game can put on enjoyable matches too. Hence, a match between Triple H and Aleister Black has all the makings of a WrestleMania-quality showdown.
