5 Wrestlers who became authority figures

Hunter is just one of the stars that became Authority figures

#1 Triple H

Triple H has evolved as a performer over the years. He started off in WCW under a forgettable gimmick and then jumped to WWE to find huge success as a wrestler. He was a prominent part of the promotion during the Monday Night Wars thanks to the anti-authority D-Generation-X. Triple H then went on to wrestle in the main event scene for a long time before slowly starting to take up backstage roles with the WWE.

Hunter then donned the cape of a part-timer and an Authority figure on television and made the fans feel that he is indeed the next person to take over once Vince McMahon retires. The Authority figure character of Triple H was heavily inspired from real life and this might be the reason why it turned out to be a success.
