When put in the ring with lesser talent, the match was never memorable. He doesnt CARRY guys like the greats in the ring do.

Furthermore, he isnt that great a character, because as a face, quite frankly, he sucks. He's had two face turns that bombed completely.
While with DX he was fine, but that's the entirety of DX and not of HHH alone.
Once seperated, he's not nearly as likeable.

The guy manages to latch for himself meaningless title reigns to somehow make it look like his reaching Flairs record means anything worthwile..he really needed that last one, eh?

As for being the best heel of all time? Not nearly. Guys like Piper, Flair, Dibiase, and probably Savage would have something to say about that.

Remember, Piper did more for wrestling as a heel than HHH ever did for wrestling in his entire career. People despised him so much they fucking shot at him with guns, stabbed him three times and rioted numerous more times.

Piper made you HATE. HHH never exactly had enough steam behind him that he could make other wrestlers..not necessarily already establoished and over guys, bigger then they were, but the lesser guys that may have needed that rub from an uber heel....seem better. He didnt get you to embrace anyone more. Piper did.

That's a heel, The One.

HHH is a fine heel, he isnt without his good points. Ranks up there. But you've got a massive hardon for the man, and it's clouding your judgment. HHH really isnt anything more than what you said, but solid. And that IS at his PEAK. Not at his peak, and he's less than solid.


I agree 100%.

Triple H making flawless adjustments to his character? I might have missed it, but I can't imagine his swap from blue blood to degenerate being seamless. That might be due to the writing, but still. Also, Triple H sucks dick as a babyface.

In the ring, the guy does everything competently, but as Zen said, there are at least 20 guys off the top of my head I can name as being better.

Johnny Vegas got it right, as well. As "great" as Triple H may be in the ring, he has no reason to bury everyone in his path. He's certainly not that good, and I hope it comes back to bite the WWE in the ass. Also, KK has proven that the guy was not a draw.
