You ever notice how Triple H never can never allow himself to look weak onscreen?

So... HHH was supposed to just get fukked up like he was Evan Bourne or somebody? :scusthov: Nobody that WWE gives a sh*t about, and def. not HHH, ever takes a beatdown like that. I don't get this notion where by fighting back for a minute before eventually being injured, it took something away from the segment. If anything it makes Brock look good because he didn't just attack him and beat him down like a scrub. He went at someone who tried to defend himself and fukked him up anyway.

Y'all heard the Triple H 'beat the hot new guy in September' shyt?

Good observation... but Carlito was well on the way to washed up by '07. Not sure he counts. Now had it been Sept. '06, different story.

Are you forgetting The Great Khalis debut?
Vlad Kozby beat him clean, too.

Hell why do you think "I've never seen Undertaker be manhandled this way!" is a running gag? Used to be that when you wanted a monster heel established, you let him tear Taker in half.

This. HHH has actually taken a lot of Ls over the last 5-6 years. Still has his Hun-Tor the Barbarian moments but Undertaker has been consistently the most selfish piece of shyt in the business for easily the last 10-12 years.

of the last 20 years is more like it

ive always hated the fact that sheep believe he's part of the elite of his era. I dont dislike him, but him acting as if he deserves to be mentioned with SCSA Rock, Taker, and HBK...
Triple H was a cornerstone of the Attitude Era really, and so was Foley. That Trips was directly responsible for low buyrates in 2003/04, and Foley didn't retire with dignity is what makes their legacies worse than they should be. But don't act like if it weren't for those factors that they wouldn't have been true legends.

his errant wins stopped the attitude era from drawing.

He's the COO and non-active wrestler for the most part....him getting attacked from behind, and manhandled in the corner should've been handled with minimal resistance. If you look at the video, HHH was trying to get his offense in immediately after he was first hit...if Brock wasn't legit manhandling homey that "beatdown" would've looked pretty even until the kayfabe arm break

the reason why his dumbas5 will never be flair or hogun.

le alone scsa is this exact reason.

no real high drawing character can draw without being vulnerable.

the reason he never draws is because of this.

his feuds are all bland and one sided.

unless, the opponent has some mystique as a draw from outside promotions, or next level mic skills.

cripple ache is not helping himself to draw by his squashmouth booking.

hulk hogun always drew because he was vulnerable as a face.

i guess cripple ache's idea is to be the reverse of hollywood hogan.

with the loss to goldberg and warrior, factored in.

so he wants to never suffer a loss like that.

where he probably thinks hogun losing to another muscle bound guy destroyed hogun's draw.

yet,..that is only halfway right. as they never had pertinent remacthes.

plus hogun really was not great after losing clean as a feudmaker.

as he had no workrate to get over a real feud with real talent.

cripple ache is viewed as a real worker, with workrate,..who can have a feud.

so imo,...if he is trying to base his ideals on losing around hogun possibly.

it is as flawed as my proposed idealogy.

about cripple ache's possible idea about losing being a bad thing based on hollywood hogun and uw/hogun.

cripple ache needs to realize superman has not drawn in ages.

he needs to be more goku gets an ass whippin' amd less kal'el really has no enemies.

right now cripple ache as a character has booked himself.

so all the darkseid like characters in his past he has sabotaged, from drawing.

or are so large they don't need and never needed a feud with him.
by doing that he has eliminated the possibility of creating a boom via his character draw wise.
