He married into the entire company and he wasn't going anywhere. It's part of the reason why I think Jeff Jarrett dominated TNA in the early days, too.
Brock Lesnar leaving the WWE in 2004 didn't help matters any, either. I think from that moment on there's been a bit of paranoia in pushing new stars to the top so quickly. Alberto Del Rio and Sheamus seemed to slide past that to some degree, but they didn't put the World Heavyweight Title on Del Rio when they should have, and Sheamus did suffer from a bit of a lull period after winning the King of the Ring, of all things.

Booker T and RVD should a been World Champions but thanks to Triple H it never happened, because he was egoistical son of a bitch and he still is.
