Also, did you guys know Triple H was pinned less than 10 times from the minute he won the title from Foley all the way through Backlash 2000? Two of those times Austin cost him the title.
I like how the losing champ argument why from "a heel can't win all the time or it'll turn him face" to "well Hunter lost the key matches".
Wanna know a key match? Summer Slam 03. Elimination Chamber that Goldberg dominates, the crowd hot for him to take the belt, only for him t lose to Triple H, who had taken a 30 minute nap.
Instead they waited to a lesser show, in a forgettable match nobody remembers.

Maybe it was a mistake, maybe it built heat. Point is, Hunter still put him over for the strap.
Do you really think it made a huge difference? Rock probably should have won the belt at 16, but he actually won the next month. Did that prevent Rock from being a massively over babyface? Did it prevent him from being the most recognizable talent in the company's history? Rock is talented, he made it work. If you really think Goldberg not winning at one PPV vs another made a difference, well, you are a card carrying member of the IWC.
