The Triple H-led era has been dearly appreciated by the WWE Universe. A brand of entertainment focused on delivering inspired stories and top-tier professional wrestling, The Game has given fans what they wanted.
Under The King of Kings' creative leadership, The Bloodline prospered, Cody Rhodes finished his story, and LA Knight and Jey Uso finally received well-deserved pushes. However, Triple H's creative regime has also seen several stars lose their pushes, including those who Vince McMahon prioritized.
On that note, let's look at four WWE Superstars who quickly lost their push under Triple H.
New Champs in WWE! More RIGHT HERE
#4. Shinsuke Nakamura
While Shinsuke Nakamura's booking was not ideal under Vince McMahon, the former won the 2018 Men's Royal Rumble Match, the SmackDown Tag Team Championship, the United States Championship, and the Intercontinental Championship. The King of Strong Style was also one of the hottest acts in 2017.

However, Triple H seems to have lost faith in the Japanese sensation. Nakamura's aura has taken a massive hit due to his underwhelming win-loss record. The 44-year-old star seldom wins matches, reaching a point where many consider him to be an enhancement talent.
The King of Strong Style was once set to become a top star in WWE. While Mr. McMahon never pushed him to the moon, Triple H has failed to make adequate use of Shinsuke Nakamura by using him solely to put over other stars.
#3. Austin Theory was once the future of WWE
Vince McMahon personally took it upon himself to make Austin Theory a massive superstar in WWE. Mr. McMahon became his on-screen mentor and Theory was placed in marquee feuds with names such as Pat McAfee.
Theory also won the Money in the Bank contract and the United States Championship in the final months of Mr. McMahon's creative regime. However, the 27-year-old star's momentum took a hit once Triple H took over as the Chief Content Officer of WWE.
Things began to improve as Theory regained the United States Championship and defeated John Cena at WrestleMania 39. Unfortunately, that was the height of his career, at least until now. The remainder of his title run following The Show of Shows was largely underwhelming.
Theory was buried by The Rock and McAfee on SmackDown last October. He soon entered the tag team division and allied with Grayson Waller. While their team has been entertaining, both men have more potential and could be used more effectively than fodder for the babyfaces.
For a star once hand-picked to become the next John Cena, Theory has fallen down the pecking order.
#2. Omos has been underutilized by Triple H
Vince McMahon always loved pushing larger-than-life superstars. Andre the Giant, Big Show, and The Great Khali all had Hall of Fame careers in WWE. It felt as if Omos was also set to receive a massive push from Mr. McMahon.
Unfortunately, The Nigerian Giant's push was cut short once Mr. McMahon lost power. Triple H has sparingly used Omos. Although the seven-footer impressed in his outings with Brock Lesnar and Seth Rollins, The Game has struggled to give the 30-year-old star meaningful roles.
Mr. McMahon paired Omos with AJ Styles and gave The Nigerian Giant a solid push. Triple H, thus far, has not shown the same level of interest.
#1. Bron Breakker
Bron Breakker has received a decent push under Triple H's creative regime. The Big Bad Booty Nephew received plenty of TV time to show fans his insane athleticism. Breakker also became the Intercontinental Champion by defeating Sami Zayn at SummerSlam 2024.
However, Bron has all the tools to become the next Brock Lesnar in WWE. Unfortunately, he has not received the creative support necessary to fill such a role. Before he finally won the Intercontinental Championship, the 26-year-old star lost to Zayn at Money in the Bank.
Breakker's title reign recently ended when Jey Uso dethroned the former during the latest episode of RAW. It seems as if he is being billed as a stepping stone for top underdog babyfaces.
Bron's booking has not been underwhelming, but it could improve to give him a larger and more important role suited to his character.
