I Have To Be Completely Honest...HHH Has Been

[TrueEpic08]

I cant even see it as "deep writing". They were clearly tweeners. If they wanted to make it more "deep" he wouldnt have outright screwed Bryan at Summerslam and let him lose under questionable circumstances.

Example: Randy cashes in, the Shield distracts HHH misses a belt shot or something HHH has to mak3 the pin for Randy because he was the ref on duty "Best for business"

HHH should have only went full Heel for the unification match and finally declared Randy as his champion. This storyline needed a lot more Vince too.

It was really the weirdest thing to see Hunter's character change over those months. He went from a mocking, disingenuous clear heel that screwed over Bryan and took glee in doing so to some weird tweener that attempted to ensure fair play in Randy Orton's title matches. They essentially wrote the progression of Hunter's character in reverse for no good reason.

Then, of course, they had to undo all of that for Bryan's push, which resulted in his character being written as it should have been: disingenuous suit that gets fed up with Bryan's resilience and reverts to his prickish, vicious heel tendencies.
