WCW had a great roster, but some wrestlers were misused. These former WCW wrestlers would probably succeed in WWE under Triple H’s booking.

WCW put together an amazing roster, but at times those talented wrestlers had to deal with some questionable creative decisions based on the various people that were in charge at times. Some people such as Goldberg thrived in that environment, but had the roster been given the chance to work under Triple H’s creative there’s plenty who could’ve done well.

10 Best WWE Matches Under Triple H’s Leadership, Definitively Reviewed
WWE has thrived both financially and critically under Triple H’s direction, with these matches standing out as the best under his leadership!

Triple H has his specific style as a booker, often giving wrestlers a lot of time to tell stories inside the ring while putting a large focus on characters and promos. That wouldn’t have suited everyone in WCW, but certain wrestlers from that time would’ve relished working for him.

Vader Would’ve Been A Monster Heel
He’d Have Had A Stronger Run Than His Actual WWE Spell
WCW Tenure                                                                       Notable WCW Titles                                                                        Did They Work For WWE?

1990-1995             WCW World Heavyweight Champion; WCW United States Heavyweight Champion                                         Yes

Vader was one of wrestling’s most imposing figures during the prime of his career, and that was clear in WCW. He was physically imposing and would hold nothing back with the aggression he showed inside the ring, all of which are qualities that Triple H would appreciate using.

Vader’s eventual run with WWE didn’t quite hit the levels that people expected, but Triple H might’ve handled things differently. The Game enjoys using wrestlers who can be taken seriously as a main event threat against anybody, and Vader’s larger-than-life character would have brought that.

Eddie Guerrero Would’ve Had Lots Of Opportunities

His Charisma Would’ve Shone Through
WCW Tenure                                                           Notable WCW Titles                                                                         Did They Work For WWE?

1995-2000           WCW Cruiserweight Champion; WCW United States Heavyweight Champion                                            Yes

While Vince McMahon’s booking of Hispanic wrestlers was hit and miss, Triple H has showcased he appreciates that style of wrestling. Eddie Guerrero was one of the greatest of all time, and that’s why it’s obvious that he’d have thrived working under Triple H because he tends to get the best out of fantastic wrestlers.

Eddie Guerrero: Age, Height, Wives, Death & More
Eddie Guerrero is an entertaining character who sadly passed away too soon. Here are some facts about the former WWE Champion every fan should know.

The fact that he was so charismatic is something that would’ve caught Triple H’s eye, as he loves working with wrestlers who can cut promos and entertain while also backing it up inside the ring.

Alundra Blayze Would’ve Been Focused On
Triple H Regularly Pushes Female Wrestlers
WCW Tenure                                                              Notable WCW Titles                                                          Did They Work For WWE?

1991-1993; 1995-2001                                   WCW Cruiserweight Champion                                                                        Yes

Alundra Blayze made quite the stir when she returned to WCW, throwing the WWE Women’s Championship into the trash can. However, her overall booking when working for the company didn’t produce anything memorable, largely because the women’s division was often an afterthought in WCW.

That is why Blayze would thrive working under the leadership of Triple H. He puts a heavy focus on women’s wrestling with his booking, ensuring they get a lot of television time which would’ve benefited Blayze.

Ron Simmons Would’ve Been A Headline Act
He Was Never Positioned That Way In WWE
WCW Tenure                                                                   Notable WCW Titles                                                                    Did They Work For WWE?

1986-1994                   WCW World Heavyweight Champion; WCW World Tag Team Champion;

WCW United States Tag Team Champion                                                                                Yes

To many WWE fans Ron Simmons is best known for his “Damn” catchphrase, but anyone who saw him work in WCW would be well aware of how serious he could be in the main event scene. Simmons’ physical style and ability to connect with the wrestling fans was something that made him a special talent.

He’s someone who could’ve worked well under Triple H as he has all the attributes that would’ve made him a top star under him at the highest level.

Stan Hansen’s Aggression Would Impress Triple H
He Often Pushes Hard-Hitting Wrestlers
WCW Tenure                                                                         Notable WCW Titles                                                   Did They Work For WWE?

1990-1991                                                          WCW United States Heavyweight Champion                                               Yes

Whether it’s Gunther, Sheamus, or Drew McIntyre it’s very clear that Triple H enjoys the physical side of professional wrestling. Seeing a hard-hitting wrestler go to the ring and leave it all out there always manages to win the fans over nowadays which is why it’s easy to see Stan Hansen fitting in under the current WWE leadership.

When it comes to physical wrestlers few impress more than Hansen throughout history. He would hit hard and leave fans wincing with what they watched which is a style that works even better now than it did then.

Sting Would’ve Been A Guaranteed Main Event Star
Triple H Loves Darker Characters
WCW Tenure                                                                      Notable WCW Titles                                                               Did They Work For WWE?

1987-2001                  WCW World Heavyweight Champion; WCW United States Heavyweight Champion;

WCW World Tag Team Champion                                                                                                 Yes

Sting was the face of WCW for several years, and he enjoyed great booking during that time of his career. However, had that version of Sting been available to Triple H there’s no doubt he’d have been pushed just as well in WWE. The Crow version of Sting is one that Triple H would certainly have had some fun with.

Triple H enjoys working with darker gimmicks such as this, being able to tap into that to create unique segments is something that would’ve led to some amazing moments for Sting.

Ric Flair Thrived Wherever He Went
Triple H Would Certainly Have Pushed Him
WCW Tenure                                                          Notable WCW Titles                                                                                Did They Work For WWE?

1974-1991; 1993-2001     WCW World Heavyweight Champion; WCW International Heavyweight Champion                        Yes

Ric Flair’s time in WCW was hit-and-miss at points, however at that stage in his career the Nature Boy was competing at a high level and showcased no sign of slowing down. He’d have been booked well by Triple H because Flair was an incredible talent in all aspects of the business.

Whether it was talking, wrestling, playing a character, or connecting with a crowd he knew exactly what to do. It’s one of the reasons he’s a legendary figure, and under Triple H he could certainly have had some special moments.

Jushin Thunder Liger Would’ve Had An Opportunity
His In-Ring Talent Speaks For Itself
WCW Tenure                                                                       Notable WCW Titles                                                    Did They Work For WWE?

1991-1992; 1995-1999                                       WCW Light Heavyweight Champion                                                               Yes

Jushin Thunder Liger was an amazing performer and someone who was truly groundbreaking for the professional wrestling industry. His performances wowed fans and there’s no doubt they’d have caught the eye of Triple H if he was a booker at the time.

Triple H always gives time to wrestlers who can do amazing things in the ring which is why the likes of Ricochet thrive under his leadership. It’s also why it’s easy to imagine Liger having done great work with him.

Triple H Would’ve Pushed The NWO
He Loves Working With Factions
WCW Tenure                                                       Notable WCW Titles                                                                                  Did They Work For WWE?

1996-2000                             WCW World Heavyweight Championship (8x);

WCW United States Heavyweight Championship (6x); WCW World Tag Team Championship (11x)                               Yes

Of course, the nWo was an incredible faction that changed the wrestling business in the long term, and they were major stars in WCW. However, if Triple H had the chance to work with them then he certainly would’ve allowed them to flourish and likely wouldn’t have added as many members.

8 Ways The nWo Wolfpac & nWo Hollywood Were Completely Different
WCW had a great storyline brewing between nWo Wolfpac & nWo Hollywood, two groups that were fairly different from one another!

One thing that has become clear from Triple H’s booking style is that he loves factions. WWE is currently littered with various groups, and that’s something that would’ve stood the nWo in good stead under his leadership.

Jake Roberts Would’ve Been A Major Threat
His Promo Skills Could’ve Carried Him To The Top With Triple H
WCW Tenure                                                     Notable WCW Titles                                                                         Did They Work For WWE?

1992                                                                                    None                                                                                                               Yes

Jake Roberts is one of wrestling’s greatest-ever characters, but that didn’t always lead him to the title success that his talent deserved. His main quality was his promo skills, with few in history being better at captivating an audience with their words than him.

That’s why he’d work well under Triple H’s leadership, as he often focuses on promos and character-driven work. Roberts provides that in spades, and the combination of their creative minds could’ve led to something special.
