The legacy of HHH
I was watching a dvd where HHH lumped himself in with Austin and the Rock as the guys who saved the WWE. It got me thinking :
If we removed HHH from ever being in the wwf it would not make much of a difference to the company. He was/is an average wrestler who would have been forgotten a long time ago. So if we went back in time and deleted HHH - what would have changed? shoot interviews for free : http://forums.projectcovo.com/showthread.php?t=1562931 Another quality shitty thread by The MAC |

2000 maybe wouldn't have been as good. But that's about it.

Some other people would have been champion during his reign of terror. Batista might not have been as big of a star.

Triple H disappears? Then who would hump a Katie Vick mannequin dressed up like Kane? Without that, i wouldn't want to be part of the WWE Universe

Triple H is a very over act and has been since 97 unless you ask the internet. DX ran by H was a merch mover of the absolute highest order at the peak of the attitude era.

Re-watch those attitude era HHH promos and matches. MIDCARD at best. He rose to the occasion in late '99 and had a FANTASTIC 2000. Post quad injury he was just another big body who had some good moments. |

DX merch was gangbusters. His position on the card doesnt mean he wasnt a top act.

If you remove HHH then you remove DX which is huge.

I feel the good HHH does outweighs the bad.
His reign of terror as boring as it was did make Batista into a huge star, I would not be against another reign of terror (with a different heel). |

*Well we wouldnt have NXT as it is*
for DX if a few things shifted around you would not need him keep HBK add X-Pac and the outlaws.(granted the chemistry of original DX is why it worked but the kliq were all buddies so who knows) there are a few more things I still say he isn't the legend he wants people to think he is. Him swooping in for mania matches like he matters so much is a constant annoyance. As I said nobody was clamoring for a Sting V Triple H match or a Taker V Triple H III or Daniel Bryan V Triple H |

Who came up with the idea of DX, HHH or HBK?
I think Xpac was in WCW at the time. |

Look, he's always been good. But he's not in anywhere NEAR the same echelon as Austin and Rock, and that'll always stick in his craw. It's why he feels the need to fucking tell everyone he was. There's nothing wrong with what he's accomplished, especially becoming COO of the company and having a long run. But there is something inherently irritating about him trying to present himself as some kind of wrestling god, which he isn't. |

DX, which was an integral part of the success of the fed over WCW, was as over as absolutely anythign else in the business at that time. Austin, Rock, NWO, Goldberg, DX. This was the attituted era, and era coined by DX's image more than anything else.

H was a huge contributor to the boom. Him being a part of unit shouldnt discredit that. the HBK version of DX literally changed the business and the H led version was a massive act at a time when there was seriosu competition.

If it werent for the reign of terror no one would even question his role in the era.

Also without him someone like RVD could have been made champion. So thank goodness he was there.

But what about Road Dogg then? Surely he should be held in the same regard as Austin and Rock? Or the Godfather?

We will only know the answer if HHH is removed from the equation. Destor, get me a time machine and a sniper rifle.
