I hate Bush much more than HHH.

I think you are overstating how big of a star Benoit is at this point. After he dropped the title at Summerslam he quickly shot down the card. Yes, he is int he upper mix right now because of the SurvSer stip, but look at Surv Ser, he was elminiated very early in the match. That should tell you all you need to know about where he is in the company.

Furthermore, there are no plans to push him back up to the title for Mania or anytime in the future (they may ship him back to SD because Angle is hurt, but he wont be healdining RAW anytime soon). If anything they are just going to use him, likely to be cannon fodder for Edge.

Shelton got an initial boost from beating HHH, but they did nothing with the push. You can say thats the writers fault, but remember the head wirter if Steph, and she's just a apuppet for Hunter. So if he wanted Shelton to be a big star, it would have happened. Now, they are pushing him again, but his current push has absolutely nothing to do with anything Hunter did. After his injury they pretty much started form scratch.

As far as Hunter being out for himself, put it this way; what would YOU rather have: the main event of every WWE PPV and 20-something World Title reigns, or a 50% cut in a potentially billion dollar company? Because I can tell you Hunter cant have both. Hunter will be the owner of the WWE someday, and its profitablity will put more money in his pocket than any main event spots will now. But the problem is that he's a bigger mark than anyone in the history of pro wrestling.

And its not that I'm against the guy, I just knwo the facts, and the facts are that HHH is NOT a draw, if anything he continues to do more harm every week that he's on TV. Just wait till you see what Wrestlemania draws with him on top, yet again. Make sure to keep this post handy for a bump.
