5 lesser-known gimmicks of WWE Superstars

#4 Hunter Hearst Helmsley (WWE COO Triple H)

Triple H's current ring name derives from Hunter Hearst Helmsley, the character he played in the first few years of his WWE career. Helmsley was an aristocratic figure who was mainly used as a heel, and never ascended to the top of the card.

The best-known moment of the character is a loss to The Ultimate Warrior, who kicked out of a pedigree and managed to win the match without much trouble.

Pedigree, a finisher synonymous with Triple H, was also consistent with the fictional blue-blood ancestry of Helmsley. Triple H redefined himself during the Attitude Era, and has since become the father of NXT and a legendary in-ring figure.

#3 Giant Ninja, Bouncer (Former WWE Raw Tag Team Champion Omos)

Omos cuts an imposing figure in the landscape of WWE RAW. He has flourished as a dominant superstar. Most of his matches involve AJ Styles and Omos only entering the ring for the climactic power moves, and he looks like a million bucks.

But it wasn't long ago that Omos appeared as a particularly giant ninja as part of a 24/7 comedy segment. More prominent was his imposing presence as a towering bouncer for Shane McMahon-led RAW Underground. Both RAW Underground and the bouncer vanished without a trace, and Omos appeared on television screens.
