The "curious" case of Triple K

[Mike the Executioner]

We gotta stop this lie. I knew HHH had taken a more hands on approach with the Bloodline when it started to feel basic. Then Heyman did an interview and said HHH was becoming more involved with the creative direction. Vince let Heyman & Roman have full control while HHH wanted half control, and that's why the group ultimately just flamed out.

Do you remember exactly when Triple H started taking over the creative direction? I know Roman was thinking about retiring before turning heel and him and Paul flat out told Vince that they need to be in charge of the writing or he wasn't coming back.

Vince was simi gone before December 2023 when he forced his way back

But you wouldn’t have gotten nothing involving Sami or any of the peak Bloodline story if it was up to Vince

The story probably would’ve ended at Summerslam 2023

Nah I saw Heyman and Roman both say they were heavily involved in the creative process of everything to do with the Bloodline saga. If you wanna give Vince or Hunter or whoever some credit, cool. But to me that's the reason why the story line was so much more intriguing than most. Heyman is a mastermind

Ari Emanuel gave HHH complete booking control in October 2023.

Peak Bloodline is 2022-2023 when Vince still had the majority say in things.

There's enough things to blame HHH for without having to make things up.

Who's making things up? Pritchard is known as Vince's mouthpiece whenever he's not around, but since Vince is completely gone now he has no power.

I actually like the TNA stuff for Trick right now, because I still don't trust HHH to book him properly. Trick is outshining so many main roster people right now that it actually highlights HHH's incompetence as a booker.

I understand what you mean 100% none of us trust him but we shouldn't have to make excuses and reasoning. Last I checked main roster is a bigger payday and a wrestlers opportunity to get on shows like royal rumble, wrestlemania, summerslam, survivor series, to get to wrestle in front of 60,000 people. the end all be all for wrestlers. We don't trust Triple K but Trick Williams deserves the main spotlight. He deserves his merch pushed and whoop that trick should have the opportunity to grow as big as Yeet or any other catchphrase. Keeping him on the smaller show isn't doing him any justice in a wider lense

It served to get the New Day back on their winning ways and recapture the titles but as you alluded to nobody really cares about those tag titles. The heat the New Day were getting was bigger than the tag title scene. I think there's a lot of things they could have done with them to keep it going but they did not capitalize on it.

Its not even about being bigger than the titles. They should be able to bring the titles back. KKK blatantly sabotaged them by keeping off tv for 3 weeks after turning on E. Not even letting them get a slot on the netflix debut. And when they finally showed up they was losing to Rey Mysterio and LWO.... not even administering any beatdowns before or after... they were turned into chumps. The angles with Kofi's mom and X's family were sabotaged before they even happened.

I hate to make this about Vince for KKK but for as much as people say vince hated tag team wrestling it certainly had multiple spikes and resurrections under his watch. Including New days original rise to prominence and the feud with the Usos, wyatts, sheild. Vince was doing alot with the titles.


Meanwhile street profits and the vanilla midget bouls have the best TLC match of all time under the watch of KKK and somehow they arent on top of the world where they should be

I remember Bruce Prichard specifically saying Vince hated tag-team wrestling with Vince's logic being, "why would I pay 4 guys to do the job of 2 guys"

Yeah I remember hearing that but he still gave plenty of opportunities for dudes to shine and in turn tons of legendary tag teams have been created.

No doubt Trick deserves all of that, and the fans erupting when he beat Hendry shows that it was stupid to turn him heel. Melo being booked like shyt for so long despite being endorsed by HBK should give us all pause. If Triple K is willing to do that to a wrestler his "brother" greenlit, then what's he going to do to Trick & Oba?

 

[MenacingMonk]

Theres a dude in TSC that posts there. Said some lowkey racist during the Trick vs Eddy Thrope feud. Someone else here exposed the shyt and he somehow got a pass. But i ain't here to beef. I just ignore him

Wild. And idiots wanna label me a racist because I don’t have a strong opinion like them even though I never disagreed nor said they were wrong. Yet those same mu fukkas wanna call me “Latino Heat,” “mexican,” or “cac.” One Triple K cock rider even called me a “spic” and only got a one day ban.

I've never even been aware of your race/Ethnicity. I don't think I've ever seen tou say anything racist though

 

[dh86]

Jeff Cobb will look like a poodle compared to Oba Femi. And they have been screwing over Trick but the TNA title win in unprecedented.... but sending him to TNA is lowkey an excuse to not bring him to the main roster... how many fukking "reps" does this man need. Whoop that trick will have came and went by the time he shows up on raw or smackdown

Signing Tama Tonga and Tanga Loa at their big ages in this big year was crazy too. They paying how many 40 year olds to be on the injured list and take up room

The only time I’ve ever used race to shyt talk someone is for Brad Stooge, but he’s also a Latino/hispanic person, at least from his skin tone even though he wishes he was a cac.
