Same shit we heard since 2003.
He hasn't held the belt (except for his 5 minute reign at No Mercy) in 3 years. He made Randy Orton, Batista, made people care about HBK, Ric Flair, and DX again. He was the spark for Jeff Hardy's push this year.
He was a main eventer before the freakin' angle with Stephanie happened. He has been a solid world-class worker for almost 10 years.

Triple H has buried people in the past. It is ridiculous to say otherwise. He seems to have a long-rooted dislike of Chris Jericho, and the man made Paul London & Brian Kendrick look like idiots, when he could have very easily made them look good, at no detriment to him. And what about Booker T at WrestleMania XIX.
You have a point about Triple H not holding the belt, but he has arguably been more of a fixture in the main event than even people who have. The man pretty much refuses to go anywhere but RAW, and
no one not named John Cena has held the belt there for any substancial about of time.
He did put Batista over, but that would have been hard to fuck up. He did provide a stable for Randy Orton and Batista to do an internship, of sorts, in, but he also fucked up Randy Orton's momentum in 2004 pretty good.
HBK made people care about HBK, Ric Flair made people care about Ric Flair, and no one cared about DX, did they? If they did, then Triple H can't take sole responsibility for that. He shares in some of it, but so does HBK and the DX name itself.
What really annoys me about Triple H, is that the man has been made to look like the best in the business, and yet he doesn't really even draw.
