Beyond this, I really loved that line. Steph delivered it with the perfect combination of faux-sincerity and condescension. Overall, I was impressed with her work last night. It's not much of a stretch for her to be a heel, that's for sure.

I'm sure HHH wasn't thinking about that every day, but I'm sure here is how it went.
McMahons: What is the perfect line to do a fake compliment which a wrestler could see as a complete insult. HHH: Well, there was this one time someone told me I was not an A wrestler, but I was a solid B+ McMahons: Perfect!!!

So, how long until Stephanie or Trips tell Daniel Bryan that he's a 4 out of 10, at best? (Stressed out Stephanie shrieking after in some fashion Daniel Bryan scores against them, making it I guess 10 to 1, advantage McMahons) "DANIEL BRYAN! I CAN NAME ONE THOUSAND SUPERSTARS THAT WOULD MAKE BETTER CHAMPIONS THAN YOU!" (Triple H in typical condescending fashion): I like you Daniel Bryan, I really do, but you were never in my fave five. You just aren't fave five material.

Yeah, if this has anything to do with Meltzer, I'd imagine it was only remembered as an inside joke.
It's kinda like the PWI 500 which is coming out. Just watch, you're gonna see a lot of guys giving each other shit on Twitter soon, like "Yeah, whatever you say, Mr 472."

It was a tremendous line with tremendous delivery by Steph. I highly doubt that Meltzer was any influence.

I kind of wanted him to respond in the same fashion as he did to Otunga's "Mash potatoes" line on NXT.
"Randy's an A+ and you're a B+."
"What's that even mean? And didn't he RKO you once?"
to which she would respond
"... I got better."

Steph did a great job on the mic. She was a highlight for me.
