As successful as guys like Lesnar, Orton, Angle, and Eddie Guerrero were, I think the WWE made mistakes with these guys by turning them face *way* too soon instead of letting them remain heel and having the fans cheer on their characters anyways (I.e like they did with Austin in 1997 and Rocky in 1998). CM Punk might belong on this list now as well.......and Dolph Ziggler might be headed in this direction as well.
That seems to be more of a reflection of the writers than of Triple H politicking however.
I will say this though: I think guys like Jericho, Orton, and RVD were unfortunately, buried by Triple H in their primes. No proof, but call it a gut feeling.
