10 Wrestling Facts We Didn't Know Last Week (Jan 5)

1. Triple H Didn't Like His U2 'Beautiful Day' Return Video

WWE should bring back those old music videos they used to do. Productions like the Steve Austin 'My Sacrifice' clip were superb, and the same could be said for Triple H's first rehab montage set to U2's 'Beautiful Day' track. Maybe we haven't seen a reprise because 'The Game' thought it was crap.

On Something To Wrestle With, Bruce Prichard said Triple H wasn't a fan of the U2 video and felt it made him look like a mushy babyface trying too hard to be liked. He wanted to remain a heel in late-2001, but was overruled by everyone else who believed his return should be treated like a happy moment.

That was the direction chosen, and it didn't sit well with Trips. His babyface run would last less than a year before he turned on best friend Shawn Michaels and restarted his 'Cerebral Assassin' gimmick in 2002. In fairness to the guy, Triple H has always been better as a heel than a smiling good guy.
