Bloke's an absolute twonk. He's got form for tactlessly burying talent in public like this to draw attention to himself too, see Chris Masters returning after getting off the gas.

Even with the "error in judgement" with the Diva's title.... I never pictured Paige as some kind of slut. I guess I missed the boat on those "rumors". It isn't 1998 anymore, HHH.... you are in management and can't say that stuff.

This dude is the worst. He slept around on his then-girlfriend Chyna with Stephanie, so I'm not sure if I'm insinuating anyone is a whore. Also, it was a shitty 'joke' to begin with. How the hell does a woman not realize she's had kids? Does Triple Paul know how babies are born?Not as much as he knows about dogs. |

It's bad enough implying someone you work with is, basically, a whore. It's worse when you remember that he's the vice president of talent relations. Like... what?Exactly.... it's one thing to be part of the locker room and say that (although, these days, it isn't a bright idea). However, as part of management in a publically traded company.... that's really bad and could probably be grounds for dismissal (maybe?) from a normal company. |

When the interrupting cow is knocking on your door, that’s not actually a cow, and cows don’t normally knock on doors. They use the doorbell. As for the story at hand here, I don’t think the joke is terribly offensive or anything, but it’s definitely not something a boss should be saying about one of their employees. That’s not okay, and he should know better. Especially with all of the shit Paige has had to deal with (even here people still make jokes about her illegal video/photo leak.) Also, “Triple Nose”? Internet creativity varies wildly. |

You guys are missing the part where Page literally has a high chance she cant have kids because of a cirurgy she had.
That adds an extra layer of f***ed up.

Watching it again, the part that's the worst is how the marks in the room give him a pity laugh after he basically begs for it.

The joke of having kids she doesn't know about doesn't even make sense since she's a woman.

I mean I highly doubt that’s something that played a factor in making that joke. Not saying it is a reason. But she is a woman that may never hve kids,how do think it feels to have a joke of that subject about her? |

He actually speaks sense for the first minute of the video and then f***s it up with one thing.
It’s kind of how I see him trying to be all the time. Like how he he’s “the boss” and can speak eloquently about controversial topics. And then he suddenly remembers he was in dX and has to add a juvenile line to it and undoes any good work.

It was obviously supposed to sound off the cuff but you can see him sitting silent for a second, waiting for the laugh, like he'd been sitting on that gag for a while and finally had a chance to use it. It makes him look an even bigger arsehole, because he's had time to think about whether or not it's appropriate and clearly decided it was fine. |

So the joke is not only insulting and offensive, it makes absolutely no sense whatsoever. Huge swing and a miss.

I think a lot of you guys are missing the point of the joke. I'm not defending it and he should apologise and I can't believe I have to type this sentence but: the joke is that she's stupid, not that she's a whore.
I can't believe he'd say that in a business setting he KNEW was being recorded either.

Not even in interviews managw to gather the emotional cues he wants. * cue fans chanting YOU TAPPED OUT* |

I almost think that HHH was just being super clumsy and trying to recycle the same thing he just said about Edge to show he can be casual and off-the-cuff, and just totally tripped over his own [insert body part here]. |

I dunno. The way he was like "come on guys don't you see how clever that joke was!" afterwards makes it seem like he knew exactly what he was saying. He's an idiot either way. Edit: Actually, I think it might have just been an absurdist remark and not even targeted at Paige specifically. Like he was saying "get these guys some coffee" to check they were paying attention and make sure they realised that joke didn't make any sense. Still dumb to say in that setting though. |
