What wrestler deserves their own sneaker deal?
John Cena for sure! He’s a true global superstar, would be perfect to get a sneaker deal done. Other than that Roman Reigns. The two biggest stars.
Rey mysterio has a shitload of masks he can match with sneakers 👟
@@anasshahid224he already have it the one who deserves it is jey
@@xelosandovalI agree. He’s one of my favorite wrestlers! He, Eddie Guerrero, Cena, Undertaker and others are all great wrestlers! I love WWE!
Cena, Roman, Kofi, Ric Flair
I bumped into HHH at rest stop on rt 91 in CT couple years ago, shortly after his health scare.
He with his family & I with my family.
We looked at each other.
I asked, "Are you?"
He replied, "Yup."
I asked, "How you feeling?"
His whole persona kind of changed. He was so grateful. We chatted a bit, shook hands & parted ways.
He's a great guy.
So happy he has WWE back on track.
Same
So ya met stephanie as well????
He was probably relieved you didn't fan boy out and treated him like a human being
@@christianmacavintaramos2780 No Stephanie. It was HHH and his daughters.
@@mistahac Totally, but I'm also a 49 year old man. Still a Fan tho.
I didn’t expect this lol shoutout to hhh where my wrestling heads at 😂😂😂

HAHAHAHA Pulls out the sledgehammer

Triple H spent most of his career as the villain, but what he’s doing now with WWE as the head of creative makes him a hero to all wrestling fans.
Exactly, he was really the embodiment of a heel especially in the early 2000s I almost brings a tear to my eye because my man is getting old on us 😮💨he’s been cooking lately with the WWE I’m so proud of him and happy to see how far he’s came
I can’t relate with his attitude era day but I can with his ruthless aggression days which make me respect him even more now
Crazy part is when I use to watch back in the day I never really seen him as a villain
BIG FACTS
Being a trafficker is being a hero for you ? I feel sorry for your mom.
@@DexZethhe hasn’t been implicated, and you’re assuming.
This man went from the main villain of our childhood to one of the most respected guys in the whole company
Respected by clueless fanboys! Dude is not longer the successor and now just an employee, his daddy is gone! Yet dumb fanboys like you credited everything good to that politicking Vince’s kissarse HHH. Who have been there all these years and doing shat till rock/tko took over and making things edgy and great
I still liked the guy as a wrestler heel or face
Same here
What about Undertaker or Kane
@@tweeks9896 thats why he said "one of the most"
Paul Levesque/ Tripple H was my boss at Golds Gym Nashua NH in 1993-94. I did a trade out membership. He was such a nice human being. He was always watching his street matches to study how he could make his wrestling better. I saw him after he turned into Tripple H and he was with Chyna at the gym. He still acknowledged me and said hey how are you doing? So humble. Great person.
Nice👍
Awesome story. Watched the man's whole career. Hated him and his sledgehammer but thankful for him now. WWE is doing really well still. I was worried in the late 2000s and early 2010s.
I'm jealous that Paul was your boss 😭
He is great I grew up being baby sitted by big show as my stepdad ran WWE new York restaurant and bar at WWE store in times square Paul is great alot of them are only some are scumbags like Gregory Helms
@@JackFrost9088 need more scoop on Hurricane Helms being a scumbag lol
Complex doing what's best for business 🤣
What smart business person wouldn't 🤔
@@GameN3rdzyou understand the joke right?
@@PGPoncho he don't lol
Nice

I'm just glad Triple H is still with us after the health scare he had. It's nice to see him around.
It’s also nice to see you around
Glad he survived the "shots".
@@essgee4225 😂😂😂
What happened
@@S8erLuis He went into heart failure. He had a 99% blockage & came close to having a widowmaker heart attack.
1:00 I just can't imagine HHH playing basketball. I keep picturing him in his Hunter Hearst Helmsley gear shooting free throws 🤣
He just had to bring the water bottle 😂
Did you pay attention to what he said.? Clearly not...
@@Julsdad no way you're serious right now 🤔 did he not bring the water bottle!?
@@skimgettinkindamoneyI’m not even going to entertain that guy reply, I wasted my time reading it..
@@Julsdad You're special
He didn’t bring the sledgehammer though 😭
Kratos goes sneaker shopping
😂😂
ngl, hhh is one handsome dude
everything is perfect about him
even his voice ffs. manly af
Bruhh 😂😂
@@sdawg573yooo chill
@@sdawg573 diddy must have yo phone😭😭😭
Why are the Pro Wrestlers some of the nicest, respectful people on this show?
It's part of how they have to work. When they're in the ring it's all about trust and respect for your opponent, because you're doing dangerous things with them where either of you could get seriously hurt.
Shaq was too. He brought kids to get shoes.
Experience of Life.
@@michellenainkristinabusch1221Nba Youngboy also did
@@bowskeehe probs ain’t the best example or role model lol
The man who revived wrestling
The man who put Wrestling in WWE
I don't think it's revived yet but things are definitely improving!!
Is it really getting that good haven't watched since 2010 and it was still okay when i stopped would be cool get back into
@dirtyshasta it's for sure getting better! HHH is implementing segments from the attitude era imo and it's only going to continue getting better now Vince is out of the scene 🙌
@@dirtyshasta Well you can say you watch wrestling again without feeling embarrassed. Like you would have during the Cena era.
When HHH theme song hit so much nostalgia hit bro😂😂🔥
That theme song is so good nostalgia🤣👏
Motörhead and theme will never get old bro! 🔥🤘🏾
See, he might be the CCO or whatever his job is now, but to me, he'll always be the cerebral assassin he'll always be the king of kings and he'll always be the game
RIP Lemmy
@@The.Original.Potatocakes RIP Lem
The way HHH said “Good how are you” and got ignored 🤣🤣🤣
Don't take this modern era of WWE for granted, folks. It's been firing on all cylinders for a few years now, and it will definitely be a time period that people look back on fondly.
It seemed like Vince only wanted one or two people over at a time in more recent years and didn't let everyone get over. Triple H, however, has gotten so many people over. It reminds me of the late '90s and '00s in that regard. It's wild how much more successful WWE has gotten with Triple H at the helm. They were always very financially successful because of TV rights deals, however Triple H has gotten them their mainstream cache back. I thought casual wrestling fans were long gone, however it seemed like they flocked back to WWE overnight. Look at their crowds and it's every walk of life.
Right. I’m just appreciating everything that is being put out.
HHH it's the game changer
It’s better now than it’s been in recent years, but it’s still not good enough to me, that I would tune in every week. But that’s just me, to each their own.
@@ThisGuyWithTheShirtfeel the same I only watch smackdown now. 2021-23 smackdown was great especially cause of the bloodline story
I met Triple H in person and he is without a doubt a down to earth gentleman. ITS TIME TO PLAY THE GAME
I know right
@@danielramos6325yeah I live in Orlando and the their training facility is on 50 and Forsyth. They come down and eat at the sushi restaurant I work at every now and then. Great guy to chat with
Triple h- "i gotta up my game"
Clerk- "around here, i am the game"
bro went from time to play the game to time to buy some new kicks🤣🤣🤣🤣 I love HHH
Hahaha 😒😒
One of the best to ever do it 🐐
@@sandiletwala3001 on me bro, props to the Game for making WWE great again
@@sandiletwala3001 on me, and props to him for making WWE great again👏👏👏👏👏
@@sandiletwala3001 on me dude, bro is making WWE great and watchable again
“…So many wrestlers over,” lol! Joe’s such a mark, just like the rest of us. Love this😂
I know right
Triple H pulled a Vegeta transformation, started off as a villain.
Idk why I thought triple H to be somewhat intimidating or not really in the mood to talk but dude seems super respectful and cool to chat with
Seems to be staying in character.
He's a 54 year old man and super retired due to serious heart problems. No way he's getting himself revved up over inconsequential things
Host is actually a wrestling fan and made this very seamless. Great episode
I know right
💯
Except when he consistently talks over him all episode
Hes annoying
Coincidentally im wearing the exact same blazers as Triple H while i watch this. 😂
Ppl always think of The Rock and Austin as staples of the Attitude Era. Which they were 1a and 1b but HHH played a giant part of that as well.
Exactly Rock and Austin may have been equally the two most over faces ever but they needed a heel to dance with too who could hold their own. I almost hated triple H almost as much as I loved the Rock.
every great champion needs a villain to overcome. triple H played that role perfectly. even after austin and rock, he kept being a villain to cena, batista, even seth rollins. legend.
@@Stowerslemalucouldn’t agree more, he imo is the greatest heel of all time. I don’t count Vince because he wasn’t a full time wrestler
Not really hhh took off after rock and Austin left
@@rollingthunder8223 really? even in the first episode of smackdown triple h defended his title by beating the rock in the main event. what show were you watching?
Hunter is the most chilled guy, love it
I know right 😊
Yup
Thank you, Lemmy Kilmister, for giving us one of the the greatest themes of all time.
rip Lemmy 🤘🤘♠️🎸
I don’t think 20 years ago I would’ve said Triple H is the best person pushing the business forward, but man. What he’s done since taking over creative has brought a renaissance to the world of pro wrestling as a whole. Great to see him still around and involved. Also, Joe has got to be one of my favorite hosts for any interview show. Always asks great questions and seems genuinely interested in every answer he gets.
I know right
I know right
I haven’t watched in maybe 9-10 years but I’m starting to see it everywhere again and am considering watching again, he’s definitely doing something right
This was a shocker, really never thought I'd see Triple H in a sneaker shopping episode! Time to play the game
2:25
HHH: “I gotta up my game.”
Me: *”HE IS THE GAME!!!!”*
Papa H wants the drip checked before Mania😂👍🏾
Triple H seems like a really good guy. Great interview.
After hearing that cardiac scare with HHH as a fan I’m happy to see how much work he’s put in WWE and hoping he remains healthy throughout.👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
I love how where other guest talk about their collection of sneakers Trips’s was to focus on the relationship between the business and sneakers like he brought a new perspective to the interview
I know right
It's the business man in him
dude really understands business. from days when he started WWE network to nxt to now this
It's a crime not mentioning Shane O'Mac when it comes to sneakers!! Literally his brother in law and closest example
I get it, but his a Mcmahon. They prob did not want to associate the name Mcmahon with him due to the Vince saga
@@647JC that makes sense now!
i think Shane o mac was on here in 2016
Well in real life Trips and Shane aren’t all that close
@@jaymac8496 How did you know
Papa H😂😂😂 complex doing it BIIIGGGG😂😂
I know right 😂😂😂😂
Triple H is a real OG 😎😎
I never clicked a Complex video faster
Under rated comment.
Pop Smoke
I know right
Same lol
This man making WWE great again!!!!
Still got some work to do
@@InfiniteCoreXDof course there’s still work to do. WWE ain’t perfect but they’ve been the best they’ve been in years.
@@InfiniteCoreXDobviously but HHH is giving his all to make WWE back at its former glory.
@@Nardoni1 by faaaar
Not at all he pushes people like Zoey stark and diy but bury theory and omos
love that he doesn't try to be fake with it
It’s WRESTLEMANIA WEEK but wasn’t expecting this one , absolutely love Triple H
I know right
@@danielramos6325 mannn 🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽
CENA EPISODE NEEDED
We can't see him 👋
I know right 👋👋👋👋
Im sure it’ll happen soon.
Absolutely ... Pumps are back in force
Cena is a true Hip-Hop Head, we all know Hip-Hop and Sneakers go hand in hand. That episode with the Dr Of Thugganomics would be TIGHT 🔥
All the young people saying he was the villain growing up,
D-GENERATION X he was our hero! Lol
Dude worked his way to the top and all the success he got right now is well deserved. What a great mind for pro wrestling.
He banged Steph along the way 😅… doesn’t hurt to have a wife that is set to inherit billions one day
I could listen to HHH talk for a while, such a legend!
Triple HHH One Of My Favorite Wrestlers EVER. Its actually cool seeing him on sneakers I never seen him where Nikes before so cool.
This was an interesting convo. i just got back into wrestling recently so this is right on time.
I know right
I did not expect triple h to be a part of one of this episode congrats to the one and only king of kings 🔥🔥🔥
I know right 🔥🔥🔥🔥😎😎😎😎
HHH: “And if you’re not down with that? I got two words for ya!!! Sneakers Up!!!”
I never knew in my life as a wrestling fan that Triple H is a sneakerhead😅 The most random video ever 😂😂😂
He said he is the opposite of one though.
Yeah (the trainer/sneaker world) definitely seems to be a foreign world to him but kudos to him for trying, being himself and doing it for the culture (and I guess exposure of wwe lol)
Bros idea of watching the video is looking at the thumbnail and calling it good. He said he's not a sneakerhead
@@patrickaker4380 He low-key get into it in his later years
@@emmanueltemilade2547 Hahaha yeah. Triple H is cool
This era should be called "The Renaissance Era"
Still the PG era bro, it'll be over when the product is no longer PG.
@@JB825_ Renaissance Era makes more sense since Vince and his "yes men" are gone, which has significantly improved the overall quality of the shows. Plus, it doesn't feel as PG as when it first started.
@@JB825_they aren’t pg anymore when they switch to netflix
@@JB825_PG era died in 2014
I know right
Triple H is doing a great job leading this company! Great interview, I grew up during his Era, brings back so many memories.
0:13 bro trolled with us 😂😂
He still should've did it 😂
I know right 😂😂😂😂
Let’s go!! The Game HHH on Sneaker Shopping! You’ve been killing it with the guests Joe! 🙌🔥🔥🔥🔥
I know right 🔥🔥🔥🔥
@@danielramos6325 yes sir!
HHH on the show is wild!😂 one of my favorite wrestlers ever. Glad you expanding the content with icons🙌🏻
Triple H appearance: 😠😠😡😡😤😤💪💪💪
Triple H voice: 😊😇😇🥰☺
Meltzer’s reporting that it’ll take JLP 12-16 months to recover from that hug. Our thoughts & prayers go out to him at this time.
Pure rumor and innuendo 😂
I think it’s a work tbh JLP will be back for summerslam
I know right 😂😂😂😂
If Uncle Dave reported it then it is probably false info 😂😂😂
Plans might change,or they might not.
The gong the glass shatter and that first string before Lemmy says “time to play the game “ will always hit
We not gunna talk about Joe not responding to TH when he said good how are you doing , just let’s go sneaker shopping 😂
It’s funny how much more I like HHH since he was running creative. It shows he was a good heel when I couldn’t stand him in the attitude era. Great episode and guest!
Much love n respect to HHH. His brother n law Shane Mcmahon shoe game was always iconic n special.
Triple H is my all time favorite wrestler and I've been on Complex since the magazine. Freakin love this
I know right
I love hearing the old WWE stories. Triple H is a class act 🤘🏼
I know right 🖖🏻🖖🏻🖖🏻🖖🏻
Triple hhh shopping for sneaker 🗣️Look at you now!!!
-The Rock voice
It doesn't matter what you think jabroni
I love older generations understanding diversity,culture,change,and standing on business Respect Legend HHH
Huh ?
It's game time on Complex Sneaker Shopping!!!!!
I know right
I remember, Kevin Nash sporting Jordan’s in WCW back in the day.
Triple H loves his Jordan 4’s.
Triple H yo my brotha is connected to the Culture for real always been a big fan, yet this interview has enlightened me more on how down to earth, intelligent & Cool Triple H and these Superstars are!💯💙😎
There’s a lot of wrestlers who don’t like triple h and finally the fans are starting to love triple h. I always loved triple h since 2002.
Triple H..is in touch 💯
My fav wrestler
The Game the 14 time World champion 🤼🤼🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆
Great episode, loved this one
One of the best intro songs ever! TIME TO PLAY THE GAME! I don’t watch it any longer but Triple H had one of the best. Great to see The Game on Sneaker shopping 🔥
I know right 🔥🔥🔥🔥
Look at triple H man… so inspirational
HHH is a legend. Love what he is doing at WWE at the moment
This is awesome to see HHH🤣 and those blazers he’s wearing are fire 🔥
I like how practical he is, seems like a cool guy. He bought shoes for his kids! ❤️
Shaq brought kids who had unfortunate circumstances to get shoes. There's quite a few people who got shoes for their kids. Kevin Hart got shoes for a fan. It's nice seeing these guys take care of others, even when they don't have to.
Prayers n blessing Mr Levesque he knows his stuff all around gentleman
Never thought HHH was a sneaker guy. He always seemed like a suit and tie type 😅😅
His first two sentences was, he’s not a sneaker guy lol
He said multiple times he knows d*ck about sneakers
I know right 😂😂😂😂
did you even watch the fuking video. he clearly says in the first minute hes not at all.
Bro didn’t even watch the video, just saw the thumbnail and ran with it 😆🤦♂️
To have multiple spaces be talked about stemming from the WWE into other markets and cultures like music, sneakers, movies at a higher level than ever. It's a time to be a fan of the WWE. Shoutout to HHH for being that stepping stone
I know right
500 for some military 4s 😂😂 yo
Thanks to Joe and the Complex Crew for another awesome episode!!! Triple H was pretty cool to see on here!
Hhh snapped on the shoe selections 😂 I can’t wait to be this wealthy 🙏🏾
Triple H brought the storytelling from the Attitude Era and blended it with the in ring ability of the Ruthless Aggression era and gave us this beautiful era
You know your rich when you can go into a sneaker store and say I'll have that one, that, that one, that & that one without no worries of price!
Dope interview.
H, is character we love even Beyond RAW. Dude, is cooler than a fan in the summer.
Trips intro is so 🔥🔥🔥 especially when speakers involved
I know right 🔥🔥🔥🔥
This guy starting to sound like Shawn Michaels LOL Legends
The pheasant lane mall shoutout was wild lol
NH MENTIONED RAHHHHH!!!!!
The water bottle is essential. IYKYK 😂
We’re both born in 1969- he’s 41/2 months older. We have similar memories growing up in the 70s and 80s, Paul growing up in New Hampshire and me growing up in Connecticut. He was a Celtics fan, as he mentioned, and I still am a 76ers fan. Paul made some good choices with the kicks.
This was such a well done interview. Joe does an amazing job
I was not expecting to see an episode featuring Triple H going sneaker shopping. It’s time to play the game on Sneaker Shopping
If there is one thing I always feel about Triple H when he gives interviews, is how much he knows his business and his passion for it.
legend in the building this man carried my childhood and was a fan growing up 🙌🏼
The man who saved wwe. The man who saved us from matches like michael cole vs the king, stone cold vs kevin owens. The man who saved us from something like stardust.
I stopped watching wwe around 2013 until 2020.
Thank you paul, you sould have been the one that ended the streak.
Scsa vs owens was lit
@@CalledJeremy it was obvious that owens was holding back. I was there in the crowd, we go to wrestlemania to watch some amazing fights, owens was talking about texas for 30 minutes.
MASSIVE part of my childhood yes I was most definitely a Shawn fanboy but man DX an Trips in general has given me so many memories nothing but love an respect for this man 🥺🫡❤️
Interesting episode. I never thought I'd see Triple H, sneaker shopping. Just due to him always dressing business formal or giving off the perception of him dressing business casual. Behind the scenes. This was a great sneaker episode. Hopefully, in the near future Shawn Michaels, will make an appearance on the show.
Imagine HHH making his legendary entrance in some high tops, crazy
