I see the "uhh" shit referenced on here all the time, as well as on various other videos and stuff, but I've never seen any examples of him doing it. Anyone got a link to a video or something?

He must have done it once, or else it wouldn’t be a thing. Like the literally one time Bray Wyatt said “They lying to you, man” and then became the “They lying to you, man” guy.

It's not as obvious or often as The rock mocks but you start to notice he makes a similar grunt at the end stretch of sentences. at least used anyway

See that's what I'm saying haha, people talk about it all the time but I've never even seen any proof that he ever did it.

What's more fun is to listen to his pre-WCW promos where his New England accent is thick.

He did it all the time usually after listing all the nicknames that no one else used for him.

Check out his promos between the time he joined the Corporation in ‘99 and about early 2000 when he finally stopped doing it so often. His first promo as champion on SmackDown in August of 99 is particularly clingy with the grunts.

apparently it started as an inside joke backstage because how he speaks normally. Prichard said that Brian Gewirtz was the first one who noticed it.

The dude hasn't done it in damn near 20 years, and people like to act like he still does it all the time.

Weird. I just came across this old thread: officialfan.proboards.com/thread/571012/hhh-when-used-punctuate-wordMy post in it: Does anyone listen to the podcast "Lexicon Valley"? They had an episode about the rise of the exclamatory syllable. In particular how young white american girls use it. "No-uh" "Dumb-uh" The implication of the "uh" being an audible "!" I think the point I'm trying to make is that Reign of Terror HHH is basically just Regina George from Mean Girls (-uh)

It sounds to me like a mock on the general gravely-ness of his delivery

After that promo, people were complaining that Triple H had said he knew more about extreme than Paul Heyman. Which he didn't. He just said he 'knew a little something' about extreme. The pile-on about that when he didn't even say it was a sight to behold.
