10 Times Triple H Proved He's WWE's Biggest Babyface

6. Getting Bruno And Warrior Into The Hall Of Fame

A lot of former WWE superstars have left the company on bad terms with Vince McMahon. When a personality as strong as McMahon's involved, you usually have to do things his way or you will suffer his wrath as a result. Those who stand up to him quickly find out why it's usually best not to cross the boss. Two wrestlers who decided to stand their ground with Vince were Bruno Sammartino and The Ultimate Warrior. Because of their conflicts with Vince it was thought that both men would be blackballed from WWE for life. Warrior and Vince had been involved in several lawsuits against each other over the years and the WWE had even released the defamatory The Self-Destruction Of The Ultimate Warrior DVD. WWE had wanted Bruno on-board for years but Sammartino has constantly refused to accept the olive branch, claiming that the company was evil and taking constant shots at the state of the wrestling industry. Both Bruno and Warrior merited a Hall of Fame induction for various reasons but it seemed that, as long as Vince was alive, it probably wasn't going to happen. Enter Triple H. Using his new corporate sway, Trips managed to convince both outcasts to accept offers to be inducted into the Hall of Fame. They had both refused in the past but, thanks to The Game's intervention, both wrestlers took their rightful place in WWE history.
