Triple H and Pat Patterson worked behind the scenes for a long period of time

Triple H made his way to WWE in the mid-90s and managed to become one of the biggest Superstars in the business in a short period of time. Triple H soon began getting involved in backstage affairs, which eventually helped him take on a bigger role in WWE as the company's EVP. Throughout his stint with WWE, Triple H got to work with Pat Patterson behind the scenes, and the influence Patterson had on The Game can't be discounted.
