WWE: 10 Ways Triple H Has Made Himself The Hottest Heel In Wrestling
10. Screwing Daniel Bryan At SummerSlam
First, let's go back to where this whole run began; SummerSlam 2013 way back in August of last year. As special guest referee, Triple H counted that pinfall that saw Daniel Bryan defeat John Cena and capture his first WWE Championship. Moments later though, he blindsided the new titleholder nailing him with a Pedigree and allowing Randy Orton to successfully cash in his Money in the Bank contract. Cold, cowardly, and desperately cruel this was textbook heel turn behaviour. It also boasted the suddenness and surprise that have become a hallmark of Triple H's numerous turns, so much so that it may go down as one of his most memorable ever. Long story short, crushing the dreams of the company's most over face like this was only ever going to get one reaction from the WWE Universe. It was the perfect way to get the ball rolling in this latest heel run.
