I think he’s referencing Triple H mentioning “people giving their life for this business” in a promo soon after Owen died.

No....Paul, both in character and in real life, opportunistically used the vacuum that Owen's death left behind to insert himself into the main event picture.

That's no better than pissing on a man's grave.

Paul should've had his main event push disallowed until May 24, 2000, the day after the 1st year since Owen was killed.

In fact, if I ran WWE then, the WWF Championship would stay vacant until June 2000's King of the Ring, as a long-term year-long dedication to Owen, where it's winner would've become WWF Champion too, and H not getting his 1st until SummerSlam 2000, and not as a heel.

To me, Owen's death will forever be the one and only single reason Paul/H came to power. That's it. Anything else he did(including world title wins) are thrown out and ignored by me.

It's that easy.

No, most of the fans knew that HHH was probably going to get to the title in 1999. It was quite obvious. He signed a new contract at the end of 1998 that may have even had a guaranteed title run in one of the clauses due to him entertaining the idea of going to WCW, if dirt sheet reports are to be believed.

Meanwhile, Owen was in mid-card world dressed as The Blue Blazer and feuding with the likes of Steve Blackman & The Godfather and also teaming with Jeff Jarrett when he unfortunately passed away.

Man, I am SO glad I was wrong about Ronic’s reasoning.
