Triple H - but with less beard and more hair

Yep, Triple H as you know him now - the leather jacket-clad, bike riding metalhead - wasn't always that way.

Now you'll either find Triple H rocking a sharp suit or a Metallica or Motorhead t-shirt, but back in 1992, The Game had a name fresh out of the '80s when he was known as Terra Ryzing. This was the name given to Triple H when he began his wrestling career with WCW in 1992.

Thankfully, the name never stuck, and Triple H went on to become one of the greatest wrestlers of all time, and is now the COO of WWE.
