Triple H currently holds the position of WWE's EVP and is regarded as one of the greatest sports entertainers in WWE history. He was inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame as a part of D-Generation X last year and is a sure-fire first-ballot future Hall of Famer in a singles capacity.

After a brief stint with WCW, Triple H made his way to WWE in the mid-90s. He took on The Ultimate Warrior at WrestleMania 12. During the early moments of the match, Triple H hit Warrior with a Pedigree but the WWE legend didn't sell the devastating move. He got up quickly and made short work of Triple H to win the match in less than two minutes.
This embarrassing defeat didn't do much harm to Triple H's standing on the main roster. He won the King of the Ring tournament a year later and won his first WWE title soon after. Triple H went on to become a mainstay at WrestleMania and has competed in several 'Mania main events since then.

He completed his MBA from the Symbiosis Institute of Telecom Management in 2016 and worked with multiple banking institutions, including Tech Mahindra. While he started writing WWE articles for Sportskeeda in 2019 as a hobby, it eventually became a significant part of his professional journey.
Abhilash checks his articles thrice before sending them to the editing team, ensuring his work is highly accurate and reliable.
He has interviewed prominent pro wrestling personalities like Noam Dar, Angry Miz Girl, Brendan Cobbina, and Jesse Lambert. Abhilash is a big fan of AEW star Orange Cassidy, as he believes the former International Champion’s on-screen gimmick of an extremely lazy guy resonates with him.
Given the opportunity to script WWE’s next big storyline, Abhilash would treat fans to the second installment of The Bloodline Civil War. He would book Roman Reigns to re-form The Bloodline with The Usos and Sami Zayn upon his comeback. The angle would see The Tribal Chief-led group go head-to-head with The Rock, Solo Sikoa, Tama Tonga, and Jacob Fatu in a blockbuster family feud.
When not reporting on pro wrestling, Abhilash likes to work out, go on walks, read, and explore new eateries.
