Maybe I just don't understand. The pop when Triple H finally beat Jericho wasn't bad to my ears.

They killed the crowd after Rock/Hogan. If I remember correctly they had a billy and chuck match then had some women's match right before the HHH/Jericho match. Killed the crowd and half the crowd wanted Jericho to win as they are from that country north of USA #1 and when he lost, it was like when a Canadian team makes it to a Stanley cup finals but loses as usual.

Triple H was getting a decent reaction, and the crowd popped for both Steph getting the pedigree, as well as Jericho. Crowd was just gassed. We've seen it happen before.

HHH wanted to go on last because his match was for the championship.

Remember summer 2000 when Kurt Angle was getting over huge in the love triangle angle with Steph/HHH and it all played out to a natural conclusion with Angle becoming the biggest baby face in the company?
What do you mean HHH shit-canned that as well!? |

Yeah I remember that brief one year period where HHH did really great things. Then I remember the next almost 15 years where while he was involved in very few awesome things (See; evolution as a whole was pretty cool), he pretty much fucked the dog for the most part.

And mostly thanks to 9/11. Triple H must have been furious about losing heat to the Taliban.

Remember when Shelton Benjamin pinned Triple H "clean" on Raw all those years ago?

Remember when the much-hyped and anticipated "New Heyman Guy" had to bump to a slap?

Remember when Triple H could have given a huge rub to the new Heyman guy by taking some actual punishment to push his "concussion" angle, only to dominate the match and get "light headed" from from beating up the new guy? That really helped cement Axel. He's literally on the cusp of main eventing from that first match.

Really gave him that legit rub. But also, he did so while protecting himself... because it's so essential to his character development, you know... wrestling part time in his mid 40s. He can't possibly look TOO weak.

Remember when HHH made Jericho, Christian and Edge cut their long hair because he wanted to be the only one with long blond hair.
That's propelled HHH into Hall of Fame territory. |

Remember when Rob Van Dam was the hot shit after the whole Invasion thing died down and HHH was all like "you might get high on weed, but you'll never get high on the card", and beat his ass at Vengance and that was pretty much it for RVD's main event push for 3-4 years.

Lol that Sheamus thing is still by far the most ridiculous. You have a guy who put you out for almost a year, and then when you come back all we got was a HHH pedigree through a table and that's it! No match, no anything. Just "take my finisher and look like a bitch because I want to feud with Taker instead"

I still love the punk shit you guys hit on.
Hottest face in the company. Promo got the wwe on the mainstream map and the he beat the face of your company clean. Takes the title and leaves. Gets screwed over for the title....rematch? No... Losies clean to an executive.... |

Sheamus should have just gone over clean at Mania. Triple H did not need that win.

So how would any of you fix this at this point? Noid? Gertner? Let's say you have 2 years left to have Triple H put over the next generation in a way that matters. What do you do? Something similar to the Mick Foley route?
If the following happened over the next two years would anyone forgive him these many years of supposed political betrayals? 1.Have Triple H lose cleanly to Bryan at Wrestlemania and then Bryan win the title the same night. 2.Then on Monday have Bryan make him tap in a match for the Title. 3.Have him come back at Summerslam for a street-fight with Sheamus and put him over cleanly. 4.Lose to Ziggler at Rumble in a 2/3 match. 5.Have him commentate Wrestlemania. Starting a feud with The Miz which leads to a match on Monday where The Miz beats him dirty, but strong. 6.He comes back at Hell in a Cell and loses to Wyatt. 7.He has a full-on retirement match at Wrestlemania and puts over Reigns. Forgiveness? Hate? What? |

Wasn't A+ plus player Randy Orton in the back, riding hot off the WrestleMania 25 rub he got from Triple H just two years prior?

Isn't Bryan the Present and the Future? I know you're just kidding around, but I think that qualifies. That is one of the worst names I've seen yet.

I was saying how HHH canned the angle just as it got hot/Angle was getting over with it/the crowd were getting into the idea of Angle/Steph.

Remember how CM Punk decided he didn't see HHH as an ideal opportunity for him to be in an actual Wrestlemania main event and then he decided to quit the company when Batista won the royal rumble? And then HHH was super sad about it, and whined to his father in law and argued with him claiming Punk to be "unprofessional", while his father in law had to tell him that this issue was now beyond him, because Vince in fact has a special relationship with CM Punk, and HHH is jealous .

to piggy back off the HHH stuff..
on the main page they are claiming now rewrites for mania are being considered because of everything and all matches are said to be up in the air (who knows) but all the scenarios being tossed around in all of them they are searching for a spot for HHH to be on the card... is this needed? if HHH isn't in a match where somebody is taking on the authority angle does he have a place on the card from a storyline POV? and seeing as how there is nobody for him to give the rub to why are they endlessly searching for a spot for him? does HHH on the card still drive up buyrates? |
