I respect HHH as a performer, but my biggest problem with him is he's always been so damned protected. I don't give a fuck about him slamming the bosses daughter, that is what it is. I think he's a hell of a talented performer but he could have created a lot more stars than he did. (Note: not saying he never jobbed and never gave anyone the rub), he just had a way of haulting progress of guys like RVD, Booker T and Shelton Benjamin. Not all his fault, but a booking fault with his character. He also totally slaughtered Randy Orton who was on his way to the top and really hindered his career for a bit.

At the end of the day he did help make Batista, tapped to the crossface at mania (lolz after being in it for about an hour) and jobbed to Cena. I personally think it was too little too late, but he did do his part at certain times.
RVD didn't deserve a title run in 2002 because he was openly bashing the company and his drug use. He proved what a useless sack of shit he was after WWE gave him the push of a lifetime in 2006.

Booker T. is one I will concede.

Shelton Benjamin was athletic as hell, and if anything, Triple H gave him the rub along with Shawn Michaels but Benjamin just didn't have the charisma/mic skills to take advantage of the oppurtunities.

Randy Orton was the drizzling shits as a face and was exposed as how not ready he was for the World Title/main event push in 2004.
