10 Embarrassing Times Wrestlers Tried To Be Badass
9. Triple H's Various WrestleMania Entrances
Triple H is the Cerebral Assassin. He is The Game. He is the King of Kings.
He's almost like God, really, when you come to think of it!
Under the principle that effort is anathema to badass, Triple H with eye-watering frequency got it wrong on the most public stage there is: WrestleMania. It's all meant to be a spectacle, yes, and the Undertaker was badass because and not even in spite of his campy horror movie presentation - but that was all in character.
Triple H's character was "man who does literally everything possible to obscure micropenis," so it wasn't the same.
Those entrances were embarrassing because even a second of critical thinking exposes the suboptimal idea that Triple H had planned on how best to look badass long into the night, asking himself the question "Is 30 guys in skull masks wearing replica belts too many?" - and answering it with "Of course not, I'm the f*cking Game-uh".
Just look at the sight of him sitting in that backstage gizmo dressed up like an exoskeleton with a crown on it.
"You see, as the King of the Terminators, that makes me the best one!"
Undertaker was sometimes badass...
