10 WWE Superstars and their Game of Thrones counterparts

#2 Triple H -- Ned Stark

The one who sits on the throne may rule seven kingdoms, but its well-being remains in the hands of Warden of North.

As the lord of Winterfell, Ned Stark was one of the most important characters in Game of Thrones. He didn't survive beyond the first season. But he raised a king, a queen, an assassin and a true leader.

Ned Stark spent a better part of his life defending the throne for his king and died trying to save his legacy. He imparted the brutal lessons that one needs to learn in order to become the best player in the game but remained an honorable man.

In WWE, Triple H is the closest figure to Ned Stark. 'The Game' has molded several Superstars in NXT who will take WWE to new heights in the coming years. He adapted to the necessary changes when required and listened to the WWE Universe while planning the product.

He effortlessly establishes a connection with the audience. He repeatedly put over the Superstars who had thousands of fans standing behind them. I believe that's enough to convince why he is the guy behind the better future of the product.

Time and again, the situation may dictate the rules but it never stops 'The Game'.
