Y2Jant Reviews: Thy Kingdom Come






Often times, when you are a fan of something, there are the heroes that you grew up with and looked up to. 13 years ago when I started my journey as a wrestling fan, WWF was my life. My heroes were The Rock, Stone Cold Steve Austin, Eddie Guerrero and Triple H. Every week, I would watch Raw and Smackdown to the best of my abilities and try to under everything. One superstar I often look up to as both a face and a heel is Triple H and Thy Kingdom Come is a DVD I really enjoyed.

The premise of the DVD itself is to just showcase how The Game came to be in wrestling today. We get a look at how he started in the indies at the time and made his way towards WCW. Slowly, I had a better understanding of HHH. Remember, I started watching wrestling just as Triple H was becoming more ruthless in his career but before he suffered his injury so I didn't know much about his past and for me, this DVD was the deal breaker for me to finally get a glimpse of the man before The Game and how he became The King.

It spans from everything for The Game and I enjoyed every minute of it. I guess it's really because I grew watching Triple H. I saw how The Game was reborn after his injury, when he formed Evolution and for months, dominated Raw. How he would reform one of the most famous stables with his best friend. To me, it was worth the 26 bucks on Blu-Ray to see it. It does include bonus stuff like other stories not heard from the main disc, as well as the match between him and Brock Lesnar from this past Wrestlemania.

Also, on a plus side, you get to hear fresh interviews from everyone, including The Undertaker, who rarely in this day and age break character, to show his respect for his best friend. As Taker said, he took a bad gimmick and made it work.

If you want to learn more about Triple H, this is at least one of the DVD's you need to get at this price, normally at 40 bucks for Blu-Ray but got it as a steal at Best Buy. The King of Kings has come to his throne. I give it a solid 9 out of 10.
