10 Wrestlers Who Couldn't Survive Without WWE's Attitude Era

1. Triple H

In similar fashion, Triple H is one of the most well-known names in WWE history. The man is a multi-time World Champion, one synonymous with excellent matches against everyone from The Rock and Steve Austin, to The Undertaker and Shawn Michaels. In 1997, Triple H formed D-Generation X alongside Michaels and Chyna. The group proved to be popular, but it was the first time Triple H felt over with the fans. Debuting in 1995, the man went under his unabbreviated name Hunter Hearst Helmsley. A snobby villain, Hemsley didn't capture the collective imagination of the WWF audience. It's fair to say that he was floundering for years before teaming with Michaels to form DX. Only then was Triple H allowed to show some of his personality, and this opened him up to the core fan base. By 1998, Michaels was out of the picture. Triple H assumed his position as leader of DX, and suddenly transformed into a wildly popular babyface. That then parlayed into an even more successful run as a heel in 1999-2000, a time period during which Triple H was one of, if not the best heel wrestlers on the planet. Without the freedom afforded to him thanks to D-Generation X, Triple H more than likely would have continued to flounder in the mid card.
