10 Times Wrestlers Had Incredibly Fragile Egos

8. Triple H Cannot Look Weak

What do you think about when you look at marketing materials for a video game?

"Graphics look good. Probably expected something better since it's meant to be next-gen, but whatever. This studio doesn't miss. I am looking forward to escaping into this world for a bit."

That is a normal and common response, as is something like "This looks like it sucks and was rush-released by overworked developers".

You know what isn't a normal and common response?

"I'd buy this open-world action RPG, but the protagonist is losing a fight with the dragon on the back cover. What an absolute bitch. F*ck this."

In 2008, beyond the "Reign of Terror," as if it ever truly ended, Fighting Spirit Magazine published a memo from THQ in which they requested that the gaming press not take screengrabs depicting Triple H in a position of weakness. Even in an emulation of an emulation, Triple H couldn't possibly look weak. Jesus, Mary and Joseph.

"Looking forward to the WWE show tonight?"

"No. I beat a pixelated approximation of Triple H, and now I've lost all respect for him."
