Triple H Injured at NYR
Triple H has suffered what looks to be another quadriceps tear in the tag team match at New Year's Revolution.
http://www.wwe.com/shows/newyearsrev.../triplehinjury He was out for nearly a year last time he tore his quad. Reactions? |

Well, if they planned on him going against Cena, WrestleMania's going to be pretty interesting.

Big deal. I tear my quad all the time. I tore it this morning and I'm fine.

Pretty bad that the only reason I want to watch raw is because of an unscheduled mishap.

This sucks, because I was looking forward to a HHH vs Cena match at WM match.
We can only hope that there is a lot of swelling and its not as serious as first thought. He hasn't had an MRI or anything, so this is just preliminary |

If Triple H is injured as bad as they think he is, he definitly won't be at Wrestlemania, which means Bret Hart's record of 12 straight Wrestlemania's will not even be tied by Triple H who is now at 11. It'll be the first Wrestlemania without Triple H since 1995.

If it's severe enough, this may have been his final run. It's possible, on the flip side of it not being that bad, that it could be career ending.
I wouldn't want to see Hunter to go out like this. I would prefer at least one more run with the title as a heel without Michaels. |

In light of these new developments, I'd say that if DX were to face VKM now, I'd have to put my money on VKM

Also of note is the fact that he suffered this injury EXACTLY five years to the DAY that he returned at Madison Square Garden from his previous quad tear.

As I said in the NYR thread, this could well be a work in order to get HHH over for WrestleMania as the valiant hero returning from severe injury to recapture the WWE Championship.

WWE must have just shit themselves. What becomes of DX? What becomes of Wrestlemania? Who is their most established veteran star?
On the good side, Edge and Randy Orton just move up a notch each in the food chain... |

Thats the problem, no established super vet left, there are a few but none with the power, and prestige of HHH. I really hope he can make it back for Mania, as he has had only good matches at WM, despite some having crappy endings, and it is fucking freaky that its 5 years to the day. Also does anyone think that maybe Umaga was scheduled to win, and Trips end his streak? I mean as bad as WWE is, a roll-up to end a streak? Not likely, I think that HHH may have hurt himself, and Cena had to retain the title to figure out what to do. Its only speculation, but then again, I was right about th quad tear ( if there is one). So if HHH was indeed penned to feud Cena up until WM what will happen now? Is there a big enough face on Raw to take his place against Cena.

Thats some bad luck for the Triple H and the WWE. I am curious to see where they go with the storylines now.

I'm not going to lose any sleep over this. As much as Triple H is good at what he does, and as much as I'd never wish harm on another human being, all I can say is that from an entertainment perspective, no Triple H is not going to bother me. I'm sorry, but this D-Generation X shit ending is good, in my opinion. I never considered this ending his in-ring career, but the guy cannot be poor. He's got a daughter now, he's got enough pull backstage. If the guy is really considering running the WWE when Vince steps down, maybe retiring from in-ring competition is the best thing? It's not like there are any dream matches left for him. It's not like there were too many in the first place. |

You wouldn't consider Punk and HHH a dream match, Alienoid?

Triple H had just tied Bret Hart for most consecutive Wrestlemania appearances too, so if this sidelines him for more than a couple months (most likely the case) that means no record for him. And as for the main event, I didn't think the plan was to ever have Umaga win that match or the title. Even if that were the case I doubt HHH's injury would have change things, as in the past they have had other things gone as planned and figured it out afterwards.
As for HHH's long term plans pre-injury, who knows what they were but my theory is they'll either work around them or just put someone else in his scheduled spot...most likely Shawn. |

The biggest problem about him "stepping down" from in ring compettition is, in the eyes of him and the WWE (and they're probably right), the company needs HHH. He's the last remaining active superstar from the attitude era and thats why the gush over him so much. As much as they've pushed Cena and Batista, we know as well as they do they aren't as well known or bankable.
For the WWE, this couldn't come at a worse time. Mid-January going into Wrestlemania their biggest, most coveted star (technically I guess it's Cena, but their most go to is HHH) goes down. This is a nightmare for them, at least in their eyes. Triple H is down, and Angle has left. Those 2 were their go to guys for main events annually. This will mark the first post-attitude wrestlemania without those 2 involved in the nights main event(s). If Undertaker and Shawn weren't planned on being used to lend credibility to the main events before, they are now. Technically, this is what you or I would say is a good thing for the sake of guys like Punk, Orton, Edge and whoever getting pushes. But for WWE it's a nightmare and they're just gonna go to their next top veterans. |

John Cena vs. Triple H would have stopped me from ordering WrestleMania, honest to God. The idea just bores me. Of course, the WWE won't actually elevate talent in this time of "crisis", they will just bring back Hulk Hogan for "one more match!".

What are the plans for DX now? Isn't Shawn on a limited schedule as it is, and his whole "degenerate" gig is severely less than HHH who has been carrying the duo HBK once led.
It'd be nice to see Triple H on cruches and Shawn turn on him for being a cripple and go back to the cocky, arrogant, punk heel he once was and then win the rumble. They havent done anything good with Shawn since his return. |

Based on the photos at WWE.com and such and the way he looked after the match after giving HBK a hug, I'm saying this is a work

Then he had an award winning performance at NYR. But in my opinion, you're wrong.

Looked pretty nasty. And that RKO, lol that was terrible.
What was up when Orton ran in with the chair then ran out again? Can someone explain? |

I don't know lol but that RKO reminds me of the one with Chris Jericho.
I noticed at 2:12/2:13 there's this big indent on the right side of Triple H's right thigh. Is that normal or is that a sign of a real injury? http://www.megaupload.com/?d=RDPGHJJ9 |

So if this isn't a work then that means that he has been stopped bettering Bret Hart's record in the same arena where Owen died. Get Shadow in here he'll love this.

Vince has got HUGE problems now. Only Michaels left on Raw with any star power. Wrestlemania plans fucked.
Bet he wishes he hadn't fired Angle now. Note to Vince :- Phone Jericho. Now. Offer him lots of money, and the WWE title at Mania. Then this fan will return, as without DX, there's nothing to make me watch Raw. |

A lot of signs point to this being a work, ie. Orton and Edge working on his quad which they knew kept him out for ages, WWE saying they will report on it Monday afternoon, in time for RAW. The pictures of HBK near enough doing surgery on Trips in the locker room. It's probably a work.
However if not then it can't be too serious, not as serious as last time anyway, didn't he need helped up the ramp and all last time> |
