Triple H has an estimated net worth of $40 million. He is an American actor, business executive, and former professional wrestler.
Triple H needs no introduction. This 6 feet 4 inches tall behemoth is one of the most popular and most beloved WWE superstars in the world. In an illustrious career that has spanned over three decades, the wrestler has endeared himself to fans with his ruthless style in the ring. He has also won at least 14 world championships to be now regarded as one of the greatest professional wrestlers of all time.
Early Life
Triple H was born Paul Michael Levesque on the 27th of July 1969 in Nashua, New Hampshire. His father’s name is Paul Levesque while his mother’s name is Patricia Levesque. He has only one sibling, a sister named Lynn.
The future wrestler grew up in Nashua and fell in love with the sport at the age of five. He aspired to look just like the superstars he saw on TV, and thus dabbled into bodybuilding at the age of 14. He continued this trend all throughout high school and upon graduation, became a gym manager. Whilst working as a gym manager, Triple H made acquaintances with a WWE staff known as Ted Arcidi. It was Arcidi who helped him to gain entrance into a wrestling school run by former pro wrestler, Killer Kowalski.
What is Triple H’s Net Worth?
The WWE superstar has a net worth of $40 million. This not only stems from his illustrious career in the ring but also from his enterprises. Triple H is an astute businessman who serves as the executive vice-president of talent, live events and creative of the WWE. His responsibilities include talent recruitment, and he was instrumental in attracting colorful British boxer Tyson Fury to the WWE Crown Jewel in October 2019. Additionally, and even more importantly, Triple H is the founder and senior producer of NXT.
NXT was initially billed as the developmental division of the WWE. It has however grown in popularity and has become a full-fledged branch, much like Smackdown and RAW. NXT is now one of the WWE’s biggest attractions and has moved from the WWE Network to the USA Network. Part of the reason for the NXT’s unprecedented success is its promotion of women wrestling. Triple H realized early on that times were changing and that women were so much more than just side characters. He started recruiting and training them as athletes, and this initiative has paid off. Female talents are no more divas but superstars. They have since headlined several events including the 2019 edition of Wrestlemania.
