Everyone has been damaged by the corporation storyline. Orton looks like a dick. One of the earliest things HHH said was that the WWE championship was his property, and Orton merely carries it. Yep, you better believe it. Big Show ended up looking like a fool in many ways. HHH said that Daniel Bryan was a B+ player, then booked him to be one, and of course Steph has to be the alpha female, making even the Divas champion look like a frightened girl by comparison. I've said before, the problem with HHH and Stephanie is that they are marks for their own characters. Neither of them grasp basic storytelling. If they wrote "Titanic", the ship would have no sold the iceberg. Stephanie berates the iceberg then HHH Pedigree's it then Celine Dione sings King of Kings for the credits. Sorry. I want this to happen. "Iceberg, you can't get a job as a regular drink temperature adjustment item... You're going to melt soon!" "The breached hull is my property, you're just making it for me..."

Staight off the bat, going to say that I don't watch RAW. Read the results every week and watch a few clips of the stuff that interests me so not going to say X is wrong etc.
The things that stood out to me where Punk knocking HHH over with one shot, HHH's music playing at the end (That was the part that seemed weird to me) and also what really suprised me was Orton getting up from HHH's pedigree in a near record amount of time it seemed

The way HHH is booked, sometimes I think it is a rib, it is so over the top.
Like if he dropped his pants on raw, there would be a 36 inch long censor blur insinuating that's how big his junk is.

I give HHH the credit for putting WCW out of business. It's a documented(by WWE) fact that the DX "invasion" of WCW turned the ratings war in WWF's favor once and for all.

Triple H is there to show indy guys how you properly no sell anything regardless what your role in wrestling is. Even Davey is in awe.
He's like Vince & Brock in one person.

I've enjoyed his work. He's very self aware. I'll now withdraw and let the HHhate continue.

His onscreen presence has been putting me to sleep since SummerSlam. I don't care about watching all of Raw or PPVs. And, for me, it's all directly related to the role HHH has assumed on TV. The final segment of RAW was pretty entertaining this week, and this was my assessment of it when it was over: -Triple H was a little jilted by the live crowd while he tried to speak. He came across like "Shaky" Vince McMahon. Which, for what it was worth was awesome. It added that True "Fan interaction" that has been deperately lacking. But then... -He basically no sold a signature move. -KO'd the WWE Champion. There's a slight Problem with those three points, You can't have Triple H assume a "Vince-type" role, not sell big moves & then crush the Champion. I've learned during my times on forums that getting into an argument about HHH is fruitless so I'm not going to refute your point. The point of this reply is what signature move did HHH no sell on Monday? Granted I've only seen the segment once but by my recollection the only hit Trips suffered was a punch to the face, which he sold like a boss up until his wife was knocked down - and I don't care if your Gillberg or Goldberg - seeing your wife knocked down is going to make you recover quicker than normal and try to take out the guy who did it.

He didn't sell Bryan's knee like death. He barely sold it at all. He spun out of the way and then got up a mintue later.
Not everything the guy does is terrible, but Trips deserves a LOT of the hate he gets.

"Thank you HHH for actually being a productive part of an angle for the first time in years!"
I can't really agree with that logic. To me, that's thanking a guy for doing his job after years of disregarding it. This is what HHH should have been doing instead of being "THE ASSKICKER" at every possible avenue.

Not everything the guy does is terrible, but Trips deserves a LOT of the hate he gets. I honestly think everything he does is terrible. Its all about him. He puts noone over but himself. HHH deserves every bit of hate he gets. It does surprise me how anyone can defend him really.

In the 20 years I've been watching, my passion on Monday nights is lower than it has ever been. That takes a lot of work, trust me. So kudos for that Triple H.

I apologize, I thought Punk hit hit with his karate kick, and then got Punk got taken out by HBK's Chin music. Upon reviewing the tape, I was incorrect. HHH was only punched & sold it accordingly. My apology on the error. I'm not a full-on Triple H hater. I think he's done a number of good things, especially in his backstage role. But, He really has been boring me like crazy since SummerSlam. And, I don't think if he's going to be assuming the COO role fulltime that he should be as big of a threat to Champions. Yes, I know he's in great shape, but he needs to be vulnerable to the top guys if he's not going to wrestle a "fulltime" schedule.

HHH can't be corporate suit AND bad ass wrestler. The two are generally incompatible. Why not? He was wrestling Undertaker at WM like 18 months ago and has been in the ring since. Does putting on a suit strip him of his powers?

Triple H still hasn't given Zack Ryder his win back from Pedigreeing him during a commercial break that one time.
My credit to Triple H: 0/10

I started watching wrestling in 1997 and never contemplated giving it up. When Triple H was on his reign of terror phase, I completely quit on WWE because it was so damn annoying. I also am tired of his interjections into Punk and Daniel Bryan's giant push in the summer months. However, I will always respect him for his love for pro-wrestling. He finished his match with Foley in the 2000 Royal Rumble after he was suplex onto a wood pallet that stabbed his calf. He finished the match where he tore his quad and finished the Elimination Chamber match after RVD about killed him. Also this video from the first season of Tough Enough
