7 Current WWE Stars Triple H Is A Huge Mark For

2. Seth Rollins

WWE.comWWE.comIf you watch WWE TV regularly these days then it's pretty obvious that Rollins has become the best example of what it is to be a "Triple H Guy." He's the one that Triple H picked to turn heel out of the three members of The Shield. Reigns is the babyface star of the group, but most of us thought it would be Ambrose that would turn heel. Instead it was Rollins. Why? Maybe because Triple H believes in him just a little bit more. Much like Ambrose was an indy darling, Rollins was too. He made it even farther than Ambrose because he became a main eventer in Ring of Honor as Tyler Black and everybody knew it was only a matter of time until WWE signed him. Rollins signed with WWE in 2010 and didn't debut until 2012. It was stupid that he had to wait that long because he was more than ready, but it's no surprise that when he got there he became a star right away. While we don't know exactly who came up with The Shield concept and idea from the beginning, it's no surprise that these guys were called up together at a time when Triple H took over as EVP of Talent Relations. Rollins is in a great spot. He's positioned as a heel that is aligned with Triple H, that has the Money in the Bank briefcase in his possession and he can also turn babyface when the time is right. He's great as a heel, but he might be better long term as a face. It's pretty obvious that Triple H is a huge fan of the guy as he should be. Rollins may be the most complete "new" talent that WWE has had in the last five years. His future is as bright as anybody in WWE.
