Originally comes from college football, in the old days when there was little specialization. A "triple threat" could run, catch, and pass (or perhaps kick). Check out Red Grange or Knute Rockne.

A triple threat is usually used when there are three major factors that somebody has in they're favor, for example, a girl/guy with brains, looks, and personality. How can you compete?

Whenever I've heard it, it seems to refer to something that has three qualities; usually desirable qualities that will give an advantage over competitors. Such as -
A movie with three big-name stars
A martial-arts fighter with proficiency in three styles
