You know what I was thinking the other day? We really need to revive the HHH/Orton/Cena threesome that went on for about 5 years and they fought 450 times in total. We need that again. There were only two triple threats between the three and I thought the last one at Night of Champions was pretty damn great. Personally, I kind of think a match is disqualified from being called great when a guy taps out in clear view of the referee and still wins. Just me though. Incidentally, if this does lead to another Cena / Orton feud... See Spoony's reaction.

How did Vince even get back in power once HHH fired "Pop"? Am I just blanking on them explaining that or did he just show back up? Vince was always chairman, he just couldn't handle day-to-day operations on the brands (a la GM). They (un)consciously sort of hinted back towards that getting in Vickie's and Brad's ears. He manipulates them because he knows they're quick to pucker up, and he doesn't get in trouble for doing things out of his jurisdiction...that's how I justify it. That's why HHH can appoint himself special ref and Vince can't do anything about it. Despite the vote of no confidence, that all went by the wayside once Johnny Ace came in and did a worse job.

I think that what should be an amazing match is going to be sullied by what seems like half of the roster getting involved in the finish/immediate aftermath. This thing could set a record for run ins. It'll all be worth it if we get a sepia-toned silent movie version of it all. Only if we get Ric Flair falling into a dangerous pit. He's still under contract, right?

This makes me want to not get the show now, since it guarantees there's gonna be a BS finish. And it's not just that its Triple H. A special ref is always a guarantee of a screwy finish, and I don't want that here.

I'm not having that "Let's wait and see what happens" attitude, because I know whatever happens Sunday night, it's going to revolve around Triple H and it's going to suck. That being said, as long as it doesn't end in Kevin Nash texting himself, it's a step up from 2011. What if it leads to a series of Daniel Bryan/Sean Waltman matches? Maybe Bryan's beard gets shaved and he puts the hair on Waltman's bald spot. I guess this means we get Bryan vs Orton for the title at Survivor Series, Bryan wins, then holds the title for 400+ days, then drops it at Royal Rumble 2015 to Kurt Angle. Angle then loses the title to Lesnar at WM 31.

HHH needed to be there.
Clearly the fact that Bryan wasn't going to smack Cena meant they were seconds away from....fighting?
So yeah...thank goodness HHH came down to separate Cena and Bryan or else they would have continued not fighting.

He couldn't even stop himself from breaking into a laugh when he hit the stage, I love his self awareness.

While his (and the McMahons) involvement is unnecessary at face value, it's not a dealbreaker for me. Cena v Bryan should still be one hell of a match, and I will still be insanely happy should Bryan win the title, regardless of the fact that it likely won't be 100% squeaky clean (and really, the majority of title wins aren't) and it likely won't last 5 minutes.
I know WWE don't deserve the "wait and see" approach, they really don't. But, come WrestleMania time, this could be one of those things that looks a lot better in hindsight depending on how it plays out.

The on-screen power structure of WWE is like the Bowl Championship Series system for college football... It hurts your brain trying to make sense of it. superb comparison!

Well the reaction HHH got from the live crowd is a complete opposite of this thread. HHH was over like rover tonight. Dude, believe me, I've tried explaining that.

Triple H really does have an Ego problem and it's not to be taken lightly
