I did wonder a few weeks ago during his teary promo on Raw if he would ever cut his hair now that he's gone from being "semi-retired" to "possibly another couple of matches in him somewhere down the line but pretty much retired". Took him like two weeks.

The Death of a Video Game Benchmark
This news....
My world makes no sense anymore. Why did you do it Triple H!?! I mean, cutting it is bad enough, but then to "Get the Vince McMahon"... that's just lame. Or sucking up to his father-in-law. One or the other. Either way, it is insulting. That is literally the exact same haircut as Vince. Uncool.
"Esteemed news outlet TMZ..." -- although that did make me laugh, Jeff ;)
Video game hair technology will always suck until western developers stop delivering character designs as boring as Bald Space Marine stereotypes. Remember when Sucker Punch was going to change Cole from blandy mcblandpants to generic extreme sports guy for Infamous 2, and IGN lost their minds (Greg Miller, mostly) and Sucker Punch had to change them back so he'd stop annoying them? Christ, even when they WANT to try doing hair, they always end up coming back to the Bald Space Marine template.
You freaked me out for a second. I thought Triple H was actually dead.
Wierd thing to admit, but I will be sad when he passes. He was a big part of my childhood for at least 2 years.

Nobody in wrestling is ever really retired.

A botchamania youtube video in a news article on Giantbomb? My life is complete. THANK YOU BASED GERSTMANN.
This is one of the most important game articles I've read in some time. Back when I was a big wrestling fan HHH's entrance was always my judge for a new console's graphics capability. It's just not the same without the hair clipping.
This is worse than the time they broke the news to me on the Bombcast that COPS was basically faked.
This is the best thing. An news story not about video games, made completely about video games...I love this site.

You're not joking. Back in the day I'd watch HHH's entrance in Smackdown:SYM over and over again because I thought it looked like the most amazing thing ever at the time.
"Even at its best, video game hair technology sort of suck"
