7. Range

Face: Despite lacking the natural likeability to draw big as a babyface, Trips did manage to get most fans laughing with his smart-assed sense of humour as a goodie. Though regrettable for obvious reasons, his Nation Of Domination parody was roundly considered fantastic fun at the time.

His Vince McMahon impressions years later were also spot on.

Heel: Beyond grunting and promising beatdowns or grunting and flaunting his power, there has never been much range to Triple H as a heel. His scope has actually diminished over the past decade due to his very-real power behind the scenes - playing the egotistical authoritarian comes easy.

Winner: Face.

Hunter could always lean on comedy as a babyface, which he couldn't when heel. He was damn good at it too - the guy has natural timing.
