00:00Then, now, forever, together.

00:30You take life and you grab it by the throat, and you make it give you everything you want, just

00:41in case you've forgotten.

00:47I am the f***ing game, and I am that damn good.

00:56This is the king of tanks, the cerebral assassin, the game, Triple H.

01:24What happens here becomes legendary.

01:31We welcome you live to King of the Ring.

01:38King of the Ring gives someone credibility or says to the viewer, that's a top guy.

01:45And so this was Hunter's journey to that happening.

01:52I was the question of a blue blood, pompous, arrogant guy that slowly becomes something different.

01:58You have to be in the ring multiple times on the same day.

02:05That's a very physically challenging task, but also mentally.

02:09And this is what it's all about, the finals here for the King of the Ring.

02:16I am the one.

02:18King of the Ring 1997 was really significant because Hunter grew in legend in WWE.

02:24That was a thrill to pedigree.

02:31King of the Ring was a cool moment for me.

02:34It helped put me at a different level.

02:36What I did was take my destiny into my hands.

02:40He was more than ready.

02:42He took the reins and he went with it.

02:45I don't think he's looked back since.

02:52The Rock, the Intercontinental Champion and Triple H to compete in a ladder match.

03:01The Intercontinental title was a title that was very, very important to the both of us, to me and Hunter.

03:08Both of us wanted that belt.

03:09Both of us wanted that spot.

03:11Well, two of the great young athletes who are going to strike their stuff here.

03:16Here you have The Rock, he wants to be the guy.

03:19You got Triple H, he wants to be the guy.

03:21Is it when you're in the ring with that guy?

03:23Hell yeah.

03:24You go at it.

03:25I don't think I've ever seen any more intense competition.

03:29Every time that they were in the ring together, it just felt like magic.

03:32A match like their ladder match elevates both superstars.

03:37I mean, you knew they were going to be something special in WWE.

03:40Like, they just were.

03:41Triple H, can he find it?

03:43Yes!

03:44He did it!

03:45He did it!

03:46Triple H did it!

03:47It was our big moment.

03:48Listen to this crowd!

03:49That certainly was one of the most outstanding ladder matches.

03:53Triple H became Intercontinental Champion.

03:54It was a great match.

03:55I was very proud of it.

03:57We are just moments away when what could be the most memorable title match.

04:13A street fight hitting Cactus Jack against the champion, Triple H.

04:19We built this match up to be something incredibly special.

04:25Going at it with Foley in that kind of street fight was a big deal.

04:30There were certain things that Triple H needed to accomplish in order to solidify himself.

04:37And Mick Foley was the perfect opponent for him.

04:40Mick Foley could bring the fight to Triple H, and Triple H is going to have to survive that fight.

04:45Whether to put their bodies through this is nothing sort of extraordinary.

04:49Both men brutalized each other.

04:53It was shocking.

04:56Oh, my God!

04:57There's Thumbpacks!

04:58There's hundreds!

04:59There's thousands of Thumbpacks!

05:04Oh, my God!

05:06Cactus Jack is a human pin prison!

05:10Pedigree on the Thumbpacks!

05:12Get him!

05:15My God!

05:16My God!

05:17My God is over!

05:18My God is over!

05:19I haven't received the actions like that, and that has a lot to do with the guy I'm in the ring with.

05:24That was a match that sort of put me on the map as being tough enough to survive at the upper echelon of WWE.

05:31What a moment that was.

05:33To look back years later, it's overwhelming.

05:37Triple H was still in the thriving part of his career.

05:45He ripped his quad off of the bone.

05:49Like, oh, my God.

05:51This is brutal.

05:52He went through a difficult time.

05:54Doctors were telling him no one had ever returned to athletic competition after an injury like that, after tearing your quad.

06:02He rehabbed hard.

06:03He trained hard.

06:04And his mind said the whole time, I'm gonna be better than I was before.

06:08It's Madison Square Garden with the most passionate WWE fans in the whole entire world.

06:13And Triple H got to make his comeback there.

06:16They gave him quite an ovation.

06:31It has been eight long months!

06:34The game has returned!

06:37The garden came unglued.

06:42Just in case you've forgotten, I am the game!

06:50It was one of the most emotional crowd responses I have ever heard.

06:56Today, what's the beginning of a new era?

07:21When we walked through that curtain, it felt like the energy changed.

07:24What you see in this ring before you is the greatest example of evolution you will ever see.

07:30Evolution was one of the great factions.

07:33Because you had the guy who'd been there and done it all in Ric Flair.

07:37You had the guy who was in the process of being there and doing it all in Triple H.

07:42And two younger, promising talents.

07:45Randy Orton.

07:47The man has every gift that a man can be given.

07:52Triple H wanted me to be one of the guys and it was like, oh my God, this is great.

07:57Dave Bautista, unbridled destruction!

08:02Randy and I are very giddy about the idea of us being paired with him.

08:07Triple H is an alpha and he's a leader, so he's definitely someone you want to have on your side.

08:14They had it all going for them.

08:16Money.

08:17Nice cars.

08:18Success.

08:19If you don't have what it takes, then evolution will leave you behind.

08:25Hands down, evolution is the most important thing that I've done.

08:30There's something really special about that group.

08:33There's only one superstar great enough to have the world famous motorhead play your entrance.

08:42He tried to play the game.

08:44And that's the game.

08:46Triple H is a wizard when it comes to entrances.

08:50There's been so many great ones.

08:52The pomp and circumstances, making it big, is what separates him from a lot of people.

08:58Hunter is always very involved in his entrances.

09:02He has a flair for the dramatic, for the presentation.

09:10Sometimes it is the simple things, like spitting water, that people remember.

09:15You just go back to his entrances at Mania.

09:18At Mania, a lot of thought goes into that.

09:25To be there at WrestleMania, especially with your husband, is pretty much the coolest thing that there is.

09:32WrestleMania, it's time to play the game.

09:37WrestleMania, it's time to play the game.

09:45He is the king of kings!

09:49Triple H!

10:02Are you ready?

10:17No!

10:18I said, are you ready?

10:23Break it down!

10:25DX was the heartbeat of the Attitude Era.

10:29Discretion is advised, but will be completely ignored.

10:37They were pop culture.

10:38Even if you didn't know WWE, you knew what this meant.

10:42They were doing some off-the-wall, crazy fly about to see their pants stuff.

10:46D-Generation X invades WCW tonight!

10:51DX, DX, DX!

10:54It was just the right thing for that time period.

10:57It was perfect.

10:59The DX Triple H, he's just gonna tell a very inappropriate joke.

11:02You know?

11:03That's just the way he operates.

11:05Shawn and I both got jumbo weenies!

11:08Heaven forbid you give him any valuable material.

11:13This past week, the Generation X was different.

11:17This past week, the Generation X completed a full set.

11:20He was one of the funniest people I know.

11:23We traveled up and down the roads together, and he made me laugh every stretch of the way.

11:28And if you're not down with that, then we've got two words for ya!

11:33Here we go.

11:43Triple H versus The Undertaker.

11:46Shawn Michaels, the special referee.

11:48End of an era.

11:49Inside, held in a cell.

11:52It was like the last two toughest guys in the prison yard from a bygone generation.

12:01When these two hooked up, everybody in the yard's watching it.

12:05They were just absolutely blistering one another with the chairs and the steps.

12:11To me, that story had everything.

12:14Shawn Michaels, Mr. WrestleMania.

12:16Here's the guy, Undertaker, who he couldn't beat at WrestleMania.

12:19Here's his best friend, Triple H.

12:20Now he's the ref.

12:21He has to stay impartial.

12:22Look at this!

12:23Between 10 years, we've got a pedigree!

12:26They've done it!

12:27Oh, they haven't done it!

12:29It's not over!

12:30Storytelling at its finest.

12:33To see it all happen, it was just amazing.

12:37That match, that rivalry, is years of experience doing what they do best.

12:47I knew that we had just finished something that was going to be so special that would last

12:52through the annals of time.

12:54The era has ended, and what a way to go.

12:59Standing up there with those two guys who I had the utmost respect for,

13:04it's probably one of the most special moments of my career.
