Moments HHH has tried to create....

[AJ Smudgico]

..... For himself

Anyone who has seen past posts of mine will know I'm not the biggest fan of HHH by my own admission. However, this partly has to do (or mostly has to do) with his politicking his way into positions he doesn't deserve.

Off the top of my head I can think of

Beating Sting
Beating Lesnar
Winning the Punk feud
Getting 'special' entrances at Wrestlemania
Being the destroyer of WCW
The Booker T fiasco
Leading the authority and not getting proper comeuppance yet
Being in the spotlight long past his worth

That's off the top of my head, but I can also see it being a Rumble win this year. So what else is there? And am I just harsh, or on the money?

Trying to get the crowd to show support for his FIGHTING SPIRIT~! when he tapped out to Lesnar. Boy, did that backfire, haha.

[Mid-Carder]

I think his WrestleMania entrances are genuinely really cool

My first thought.

[Bo Rida]

He keeps trying to get his big moment by winning a match against a broomstick, somebody must be stopping him from booking that match.

My first immediate thought was all the follow up to his match with Taker at Wrestlemania 27. Instead of letting the match speak for itself, for weeks they kept having promos where everyone else on the roster wash gushing about it and calling it the match of the night.

I'm not saying it was or it wasn't, but it really came off as Triple H trying to prove that he could "steal the show" at Wrestlemania.

I think his biggest misread of the audience was thinking he'd get a "thank you Triple H" chant when he tapped to Brock.

Making Sting stand there with ample time to think about the decision he made while Triple H pretends he's a cyborg was pretty great too.

The "end of an era" stuff with him, Taker and HBK. End of what era, exactly? Two of you are still around.

[darkjourney]

HHH's whole career has been about furthering himself through politics/manipulation (Burying other guys behind the scenes who deserved the push more than him and if he ever did make anyone else look good it was pretty much only his clique buddies or workout buddies.

Guys a scumbag. What sealed it for me was the whole Punk scenario in 2011. This "best for business" when it comes to Hunter is more like "Whats best for Hunter's business"

[Sephiroth]

Tapping out to Benoit after the reign of terror. Was supposed to be Benoit's crowning moment for having slain the evil giant-but Benoit promptly became am after note and the evil giant wasn't really slain.

his career

I agree with most of those except that he never gets his commeupance. In WM XXX Daniel Bryan defeated him soundly TWICE, then the Shield defeated Evolution clear and soundly and recently Roman Reigns beated the crap out of him in order to earn a rematch for the title that finally won.

I don't know what more people want. Stephanie is another case

If that crowd just gave him the 10 minute standing ovation with tears in their eyes like he wanted them to, maybe he would have stepped aside gracefully. I blame them.

Every night with Steph in bed.

We can't pin this on Triple H but you made me think of that time Ric Flair came out during the Evolution/Shield feud and from out of left field he just went "I like the Shield better...okay...bye..." and everyone responded as if to say "Hmm, alright...peace..."

There's also the walkout, which helped make the majority of the roster look bad. Namely Beth Phoenix.

That match should have been the end of all of them.

also am I the only one who thought it sucked like Sunny at a party in Columbia?

It sounds better than blatantly saying it was the end of the story that started with the first Michaels vs. Taker match at mania.
