I'm still a bit unsure about when Trips says about the Carlito & Flair thing. Is he saying that the matches weren't good? I don't really recall a poor match, but booking someone who was pretty over as a heel back then and having him lose clean for the IC title that Flair really really didn't need - well that is just shit booking designed to make him look shit. That after they skyrocketed him to both mid card titles on both shows on his respective debuts.

I can't recall how long ago it was, but certainly not that far back that Carlito was getting big face pops coming out, and a big win over Cena. So, Trips' argument that he didn't make the most of the Flair feud is rendered bullshit by that fact alone.

Like Shelton, I think he's the victim of some pretty shocking booking and yeah, his attitude could have been better - and I haven't seen the Game have a 60 year old make him tap clean anytime recently, and he certainly won't NYE - but in the same position, I would have been just as pissed.
