WWE EVP Triple H recently completed 25 years with the company. The Game made his way to WWE way back in the mid-90s after an underwhelming stint in WCW. His first WrestleMania outing was a quick squash against WWE legend The Ultimate Warrior, but things only got better from that point.

Triple H is widely regarded as one of the greatest Superstars in the history of this business. He has been a WWE mainstay for 25 years now and has done it all inside the squared circle. He has headlined several WrestleMania events, won numerous Championships, and has been involved in some of the biggest matches in WWE history.

It has been a while since Triple H stepped foot in the ring and WrestleMania 36 was the first time in 13 years that he missed The Show of Shows. That doesn't take away from the fact that The Game is still in great shape and hasn't ruled out a return completely.

In this slideshow, we will take a look at five opponents for Triple H if he decides to wrestle again.


#5 Bray Wyatt

Back in 2016, Triple H won the WWE World Title at the Royal Rumble. On an episode of RAW, mere weeks away from WrestleMania 32, The Wyatt Family confronted Dean Ambrose and destroyed him in a matter of seconds. Suddenly, Triple H's music hit and out came The Game.

For a while, Wyatt got in Triple H's face and checked out the coveted title, as the fans gave their approval in unison. Nothing came of it though and we never got to see the two collide. Fans can only imagine the rush of excitement that they would experience if Triple H decides to come back and take on Wyatt's sinister persona, The Fiend, somewhere down the line.

#4 Daniel Bryan

On the Road to WrestleMania 30, the Yes Movement was as strong as it had ever been, and the collective efforts of Daniel Bryan and the WWE Universe led to Bryan getting a shot at the WWE World title at The Show of Shows.

Bryan defeated Triple H in a classic opener at WrestleMania and went on to win the WWE World Title in the main event. Triple H got a rematch on the next night, but The Shield made sure that he wouldn't get his way with Bryan. The rivalry that had been building up for months, ended in a hurry.

Bryan made a miraculous return to the ring in 2018, after being on the sideline for years due to a career-threatening injury. All it needs for the stars to align is for Triple H to make a return, even if it is for a short-lived run. This rivalry gave us one of the greatest WrestleMania openers in history, and these two men still have a lot left in the tank.

#3 Seth Rollins

The Monday Night Messiah is currently a top heel on WWE RAW, but there was a time when Seth Rollins was possibly the biggest babyface in WWE. Triple H wasn't keeping it a secret that he regarded Rollins as the future of WWE, but it all changed on a fateful night when he betrayed Rollins and helped Kevin Owens become Universal Champion.

This kicked off a rivalry between Rollins and Triple H which culminated in a blockbuster match at WrestleMania 33. Rollins registered a victory over Triple H and that was it for this promising rivalry.

Triple H could make a return as a fan-favorite to exact revenge on Rollins. Over the course of the past few months, the WWE Universe turned on Rollins to the point that WWE had to turn him heel.

This reignited rivalry, with the roles changed, could certainly make for an intriguing presentation. This feud deserves another run before Triple H officially decides to hang up his boots and puts an end to his illustrious career.

#2 King Corbin

This could be a unique feud with an interesting buildup to it. There hasn't been much interaction between Triple H and Corbin inside the squared circle. But there have been two instances in the past that a dastardly heel like Corbin wouldn't have forgotten.

Back in late 2018, the McMahons took control of WWE RAW and SmackDown and Corbin was eventually let go of his position as RAW Constable after he lost a Handicap match to Kurt Angle, Apollo Crews, Bobby Roode, and Chad Gable.

Last year in November, Corbin was embarrassed by DX on an episode of SmackDown and the segment ended with the notorious group putting Corbin down to a chorus of cheers.

Corbin could bring up these instances during the buildup to this feud, vowing to exact revenge for Triple H embarrassing him in the past. Corbin could come out victorious when all is said and done and it would certainly help him garner tons of heel heat as he moves forward.

#1 Braun Strowman

The Monster Among Men is currently the Universal Champion on SmackDown. He won the top prize after beating Goldberg at WrestleMania 36. After spending years on end on the main roster without doing much of note, Strowman finally got his chance to shine at The Grandest Stage Of Them All.

Aftermath of Braun's attack on Triple H:

Fans might remember that Strowman has had some on-screen heat with Triple H in the past. The main event of Survivor Series 2017 saw Team RAW defeating Team SmackDown, but Braun Strowman wasn't happy with how things had ended. Triple H turned on Kurt Angle, his own teammate, and helped Shane McMahon in eliminating him.

The Game then put Shane down to win the match for his team. A confused Strowman warned Triple H to never do something of that sort again. Triple H tried to attack The Monster Among Men but was hit with two running powerslams.

Although the seeds were sown, the rivalry never culminated in a big match. If WWE wants to cement Strowman as a credible Champion, Triple H could be brought back for a short-lived feud, with Braun coming on top in the end and getting a huge rub from one of the all-time greats.

An unexpected name just challenged Randy Orton RIGHT HERE.
