Most couldn't stand the fact even during his prime (Post 2000-2001 at least ) he was main eventing and taking most of the promo/air time and main event world title spot when many felt others were more deserving and turned people away from the WWE in record numbers compared to where it was before business
Why aren't people even more pissed off now that HHH is main eventing another mania in the year 2016 and close to 50 years old as world champ while guys in their prime are once again forced to play 2nd fiddle?

I think it's amazingly dumb and short sighted, but I find it even more amazing that they have featured someone I'm fully willing to root for HHH over in 2016's Mania main event.

Because at least he's the more qualified of the two people actually in the main event?

Better than having Shane McMahon main event Wrestlemania in 2016

Well with how injury ravaged they are they didn't really have much of an option. You could have had Roman v Sheamus. *shudder*

H is great and he belongs at the top of the food chain. Not to mention injuries have happened to top talents, thus thinning the roster at showtime.

Absolutely okay with it. - I think Hunter is easily one of the greatest ever. - Easily one of my favorites. - Cannot remember the last time he put on a bad match, especially on the big stage like this. - He is only in the spot because of an unprecedented rash of injuries made worse by Vince's horrible booking.

It's one of the biggest reasons that I'm not looking forward to Triple H taking over for Vince because If he wanted this or didn't he should have shot this down they should be pushing new younger talent and by not doing that it's gonna take that much longer for them to get over as top stars if they ever do.They need to put the younger guys in these spots so eventually they are seen that this level.We're in 2016 and HHH,Undertaker and Shane McMahon are main eventing wrestlemania that sends a huge message to the viewers that none of the full time roster is a star but Maybe Roman.When Hogan,Savage and all the stars of the 80's and 90's left wwf they were left with Bret Hart and HBK weren't seen at the same level it took years to be seen as stars but putting them in the position eventually made them seem at the level and today's guys don't stand a chance because they seem so beneath the stars of 10 and 20 years ago.

I mean, I don't think it would be the case if the WWE wasn't destroyed by injuries.

I'm less critical than i'd normally be of it due to the injuries. But it still isnt good, and is their own damn fault for their consistent inability to develop new stars.

Even if there were no injuries this would probably still be happening. Alternately, it would be ROllins vs HHH for the title.
Ambrose vs Reigns for the title at 'mania was f***ing writing itself. It was a story that had great legs with entertaining matches and a showcase of two top talents who are still fairly fresh (Reigns was doing well before being forced into the current storyline). Instead they're feeding Ambrose to a part timer after he lost to HHH and HHH has held the belt for 2-3 months.

It is what it is but the fact that it's blowing up in their face makes it more satisfying. Had it been working I would have been upset but it's just an example of how this company's practices aren't working in 2016 and they'll have to find out the hard way.

I really attribute this to injuries. This isn't the mid 00's. I seriously doubt HHH made himself champ and main event mania to stroke his ego. The injuries left them without anyone to really main event that would make sense in kayfabe. It sucks but I don't think it was a boneheaded creative move.
