WWE 2K25 Needs to Give Triple H the Tribute He Deserves

by

The covers for WWE 2K25 showcasing Roman Reigns and The Bloodline, along with The Undertaker, create an atmosphere suggesting that the upcoming edition is heavily focused on tradition and legacy. Both figures have etched significant impacts within WWE, attaining status as cultural legends individually. That said, it’s reasonable to expect WWE 2K25 to unveil additional surprises, either in the main game or through future DLCs. It’s high time for one future Hall of Famer to receive their due recognition within this installment.

This year, it has been announced that Paul Levesque, better known by his wrestling persona Triple H, is the first inductee into the WWE Hall of Fame class. With an illustrious career in wrestling spanning three decades, Triple H has left a lasting impact on the industry. He’s faced some of the top wrestlers, becoming a 14-time world champion, and even caused trouble alongside his D-Generation X partner and close friend, Shawn Michaels. Given his immense contributions, it’s fitting that WWE 2K25 honors “The Game” with special content that acknowledges his legacy, offering fans of the King of Kings additional ways to appreciate him beyond playing as Triple H in MyGM Mode.

WWE Superstar and Hall of Famer Triple H Deserves a Showcase-like Tribute

In 1992, Triple H embarked on his professional wrestling training journey, and he made his first appearance with World Championship Wrestling (WCW) in 1994. A year later, he debuted with WWE (previously known as the WWF). Throughout his career, he’s assumed various personas like Jean-Paul Levesque and Hunter Hearst Helmsley, and has been a part of notable factions such as D-Generation X and Evolution, forging unforgettable alliances. Alongside these transformations, Triple H has amassed an impressive collection of titles, including numerous world championships.

As I step into my executive role within the WWE family in 2022, it feels incredible to see the enduring impact of my career as a wrestler. Fans and fellow wrestlers alike continue to sing my praises, harkening back to some of my most memorable moments – moments that truly showcase what it means to be one of the greatest stars to ever grace the ring.

For those who enjoy recreating the magic of WWE through the lens of gaming, I’ve found a special place in their hearts too. Time and time again, players of the iconic WWE 2K series pay tribute to my legacy by emulating some of my standout looks within the game.

Now, as I take my rightful place among the legends in the WWE Hall of Fame, I can’t help but feel a sense of pride knowing that WWE 2K25 has the unique opportunity to bring these moments to life once more, allowing fans everywhere to relive and cherish the incredible journey that was my career.

Just like how WWE 2K24 features a “40 years of WrestleMania” showcase dedicated to the event’s history, it would be fitting for WWE 2K25 to introduce a mode focused on Triple H, allowing players to collect various outfits representing his diverse gimmicks. This mode should enable fans to relive his iconic matches and rivalries, such as the 2003 World Heavyweight Championship bout against Shawn Michaels and the No Holds Barred match versus The Undertaker. Additionally, it would be an exciting addition if this mode could replicate Triple H’s battles with some of his former stablemates – legends who have made their own indelible marks in wrestling history.

  • D-Generation X: Shawn Michaels, Chyna, X-Pac, Road Dogg, and Billy Gunn
  • Evolution: Randy Orton, Batista, and Ric Flair
  • The Corporate Ministry: The Undertaker, Shane McMahon, Faarooq, Bradshaw, Chyna, and more.

In previous versions of WWE 2K, they’ve offered memorable showcases with legendary bouts and a dream match featuring the hall-of-famers of each year. The Showcase Mode in WWE 2K24 was no exception, incorporating newer contests like Roman Reigns vs Cody Rhodes and Rhea Ripley vs Charlotte Flair at WrestleMania 23. Therefore, it’s reasonable to anticipate that WWE 2K25 will continue this trend by creating a showcase mode dedicated to honoring Triple H and the Class of 2025.

Currently, it has been confirmed that WWE 2K25’s Showcase Mode focuses on The Bloodline’s matches, highlighting their history. However, there’s an exciting possibility for a secondary showcase dedicated to Triple H, which could be released as DLC to enrich the game with additional content beyond new wrestlers. With Game Rant’s early review of WWE 2K25 suggesting that the game demonstrates a lot of potential with its enhanced mechanics and graphics, fans have plenty to look forward to.
