I love it. Love me some HHH. So does the crowd. Biggest pop of the night by far. Well the reaction HHH got from the live crowd is a complete opposite of this thread. HHH was over like rover tonight. Your point? Doesn't mean anyone has to enjoy his presence or that keeping him around is a good thing longterm. The point is that unfortunately (for you) you're in an absolutely ridiculously small minority and you'll kinda have to sit back and watch the awesomeness (which is what it will be) unfold whether you like it or not (not in your case, again; unfortunate).

Orton comes out, gives Triple H the briefcase, and tells him he's such an awesome ass-kicker he should be the one to cash in, then Trips counts his own pinfall on Cena while Vince shaves Bryan at ringside. The completely chaotic reactions around here *almost* make me want to see that scenario happen

I love that he's becoming the John Terry of WWE, any big moment and he's there to take some of that glory for himself. Paige becomes the first NXT Women's Champion, here's HHH. Big Summerslam match, possibility of Daniel Bryan winning his first WWE championship? Needs more HHH. Somebody...let's say Christian...makes a post Summerslam retirement speech, here's HHH to see them off. The Macho Man gets a posthumous induction to the Hall Of Fame? HHH makes the acceptance speech.

I actually do NOT have to sit back and just take it. I CAN and I WILL raise the issue at the next conference call. I legitimately do not like supposed part time upper management types inserting themselves into the main products storylines as I feel it turns viewers off and devalues the brand.

What a silly stance. Popularity isn't always indicative of what's good for business or booking. Some of the most popular men in wrestling history have caused the most trouble for business.

They caused trouble after their popularity had faded though and they were still clinging onto it. HHH still receives huge pops no matter what he does; when he appears backstage during a segment, when he's in a match or when he's out there talking.

Yes, his popularity is nowhere near what it used to be. He's the exact example I was thinking of when I said all that stuff.

I guarantee you Hogan would get a bigger reaction if he showed up than Triple H tends to - doesn't mean he should be made the referee of Punk / Lesnar. To say nothing of there being infinitely more people who know who Hogan is.

I don't know how long it would last though.

Why in the hell would I perceive Triple H reffing a match the same as someone dying?

A special referee should only be inserted into a story when it is a part of the angle previously or to boost interest. This match already had a lot of interest. Jesus it was the match the crowd chanted for, that's the point of the how we got here. If Trips wants to use his popularity he could special ref the Ambrose match. There is a match with little build up that deserves more attention, but then again its not the main event so he aint gonna come within a sniff of that.
I said before when people tried to claim Trips made Cena that Cena was already on fire when he came to Raw. Trips just grabbed the lightning to claim some of the thunder and I think that's what he does best. DX revisionism had him and Shawn as equals in that group and no Chyna. Summer of WWE Punk had to have him involved. Now this.
Yeah he gets a pop. The match already got a pop. This is like enjoying a nice salty pretzel and someone wringing their sweat socks out on it and wondering why you don't like the extra salt.

I can't wait to see how this plays out. There will either be chaos or crow so hopefully the board is fun to read after the ppv is over.

So, after HHH killed the hottest angle WWE had in like a decade back in 2011, he thinks it's a good idea to try it again, eh? Let's see where this could go.
IF the Game understands that what he did in 2011 (turning Punk/Cena for the title into Kevin Nash vs HHH...Hell in a Cell with del Rio holding the WWE Championship) then we might be in for this scenario.
Cena/Bryan is the amazing match that a lot of people hope it will be. HHH's involvement is minimal (I'll buy this happening only if he doesn't come out LAST for the match) and he counts the pinfall for D-Bry without an shenanigans. After the match, Orton comes down to cash in on Daniel Bryan only to be stopped...by John Cena (who doesn't want to see what happened to Punk happen AGAIN to Bryan). This sets up the always popular Orton/Cena feud.
Then, we get the Rocky storyline with D-Bryan granting HHH a title shot. HHH and Bryan have a great match (with Bryan going over). Bryan's got the ball and we see how far he can run with it.
If HHH DOESN'T think that what wound up happening when he stuck himself into the Summer of Punk was a train wreck, look for this to happen.
Cena/Bryan have that great match that we're all hoping for. Bryan wins, HHH raises his hand...then kicks him in the gut and plants him with the Pedigree. Orton comes down, cashes in his MitB contract, and HHH counts a slower-than-necessary 1,2,3, to sell how devastating the Pedigree is.
We transition into Cena/Orton for the WWE Championship. HHH/Bryan have a short program with each getting a win. HHH wins due to distraction. Bryan wins thanks to a whole lot of outside goings-on.
Bryan wins the Rumble. Faces Cena AGAIN at Mania. Wins of he's still over enough to deserve it by then.
