Steve Austin and Triple H are two of the biggest names in professional wrestling, and following his heel turn at WrestleMania 17 The Texas Rattlesnake aligned himself with The Game to form the Two Man Power Trip.
As a tag team Austin and Triple H were a force to be reckoned with and during a recent Drew & A session with Drew McIntyre on WWE Network and Peacock, Austin noted that he and Triple H hit it off early in their careers.
“I love working with Triple H. We hit it off when he came down to WCW way back in the day. We didn’t travel roads together but we were on the same page. We both loved bodybuilding, powerlifting. He’s a great worker, good mind for the business.”
The WWE Hall of Famer also went on to say that he picked Triple H’s brain about many different things, and that he thinks Triple H had a great mind for the business.
“But Triple H, a great mind for the game. I picked his opinion on many different things, and asked his opinion on many different things when I was on my run, and one of my ideas as a heel that I wanted to do was form a tag team with him, and call it The Two-Man Power Trip. We were really, really trying to get some heat, laying some heavy steel chairs down on The Undertaker, Kane, Hardys, Lita, my God.
“We were doing everything we could in my alliance with him, which kind of ensured that I was headed in a heat direction, and then fate hit one night in a tag match on Monday Night RAW, and he blew out that quad, and that was the end of that, And he made a successful comeback, obviously he’s had one of the greatest runs in the history of the business, but a guy that’s a lot of fun to be in the ring with.”
