State Your Case: Why do you hate Triple H?

Discuss your reasons for hating Triple H and then provide evidence to backup your reasons for being a vile and spiteful human being.

I've never been a huge fan of Triple H's ring work, like...ever...but I think that he is pretty perfect in his current role with The Authority. I don't mind him at all.

Rammed down your throat for years. To this day he takes up the spotlight at the start of the show with no real direction or momentum. You need to come out of the gate swinging, but instead we have him delaying the first match for up to 30 minutes at some point. Is competent but doesn't have a fraction of the charisma or watchability of someone like Vince. Not really adding anything to the product. Never drew a dime.

He's perfectly competent but he vastly overstays his welcome in all aspects.

I don't hate Triple H in his current role, I think he's in a great spot and he is so much better as a heel.

But from an in-ring perspective he's only had one match in like four years that I've actually enjoyed: vs. Taker at WM 28. Loved that match. I'll admit I haven't watched HHH/Taker from WM 27 again, but at the time I remember it being a tremendous letdown from Taker's previous WM efforts. I'm willing to give it another watch as it's possible I wasn't viewing it from an objective eye as that Mania in general was atrocious.

But his matches with Punk (both against and teaming with him) did nothing for me. His Nash PPV match was about what you'd expect from a Nash match in 2011. All 3 Lesnar matches bored me to tears. It's looking like HHH/Punk is in the workings for WM 30 and, if their 2011 match is any indication, it'll be largely forgettable on a show that should feature loads of better matches.

He's just not all that good for how "revered" he is and for how much he was shoved into everybody's face. He cuts the same promo with the same facial expressions in the same voice seriously every time he is on the microphone. Not once have I heard a Trips promo and was like "whoa. That was creative." He is the stereotype that comes to mind when somebody thinks of a prowrestler. Some absolute testosterone-drunk jacked guy that unintelligibly yells at people he is about to go into the ring with. It wouldn't be so bad but from all accounts the guy has the hugest ego in the business, despite just being pretty good. Like if he just was who he was and I didn't have to hear about him being one of the greatest ever because everybody is afraid of his wife, I probably wouldn't care one way or the other.

Has anyone gotten over on HHH in his new role yet? He buries everyone he gets involved with (only on the mic) and then they scream at us to buy their merch.

Laurinitis was better in his role as authority figure because he came off like the arrogant, pompous, clueless (People Power!) upper middle management boss we have all probably dealt with at some point.

HHH waffles between heel and face mid show on almost every show. Why will he bury Daniel Bryan, then turn around and stick it to Paul Heyman?? Hell, on any given week he may or may not support Randy Orton. I just don't get it.

I think that Triple H definitely has ulterior motives, but he has to act "normal" enough so that the Board of Directors doesn't accuse him of abusing his power. That's why his actions may appear inconsistent. [/kayfabe]

He's boring, slept his way to his spot, shoved down our throats, clings on to more successful wrestlers to try and make himself seem more important, ugly.

Arguing with JamesSteele over HHH is like arguing with Kane Knight over... anything.



You're not actaully dealing with a real person with a real opinion, but with a gimmick/character. JS= "Facetious Hunter Hearst Helmsley Fan" as opposed to "Organism that gains sustenance through engaging in conflict on internet message boards".

For such a great HHH fan you don't do a great job arguing his case. Whining and crying like a baby any time someone says something negative about him is absolutely the dumbest, most irritating way you can go about things. You aren't even a real person to be honest, I don't know what the hell you are.


And HHH sucks because he is decent, but incredibly boring a lot of the time.

There was a time when I really wasn't into Triple H. That would be his first title run, and the McMahon/Helmsley story. Every Raw opening with a 10 minute Triple H review of the previous week, yelling like a spartan for no reason.... that sucked.

But he still had great matches. And going back to his first TV matches I remember thinking that he was an awesome wrestler and should be in the ring with Bret and Shawn. His style changed when his leg ripped in half, and it took him a couple of years to have the ability to a minimal amount of work and tell a great story to the point you don't notice his limitations. But then he reached that, and got better as years go on.

He's not done by a long shot and has had some of the best Wrestlemania matches ever...

Taker 1,2 and 3
HBK/Benoit/HHH Triple Threat

I remember at the time his matches with Booker T and John Cena stuck out to me as really great matches as well.

Anyway, I think if you really hate Triple H your just hanging onto some shit from the past. He's the best guy to run the company in the future, that I can tell, and he's still money in the ring.

I disliked Triple H when he reigned supreme on Monday Night RAW as the real World's Heavyweight Champion. Just like many internet fans, I do not appreciate the fact that he likes to bury talent. To be fair, I don't know if that is true. Other than that, I did not enjoy most of his goofy antics during the last two DX runs.

I extremely dislike his new propaganda DVD set. It makes me cringe. I must also add that I don't judge him based on his association with the McMahons.

I am a Triple H mark. His mid to late '99 run as a heel, being the game, being that damn good. Making it his time. I bought all his merchandise, and during that period, he didn't seem to have a bad match.

People talk about him "burying" talent. They throw up Steiner and booker, but is that Triple H that was burying them, or the writing at that point?

Look at Rikishi. I remember a Smackdown in late '99/early 2000 with a ballot where one guy in the back got a shot at the Game. Rikishi's name was drawn and everyone in the locker room chanted "Ri-Ki-Shi, Ri-Ki-Shi". Yes, Triple H got the win, but made Rikishi a star in the process.

Same with Benoit in a match on Smackdown. Triple H made him look like a legit threat and that he belonged in the WWE.

He put over Shelton Benjamin and made him look like a million bucks on Raw.

The problems people have with Hunter probably aren't/weren't actually Hunter's fault.

As much as he says he loves the business, you can tell he's more in love with himself. He is made head of creative and the very next Raw ends with him standing tall over the WWE Champion.

I only hated him when he was feuding with Foley and that had nothing to do with him as a person or a performer and instead my unrealistic desire to see Foley hold the title for a straight year.

Aside from the things pointed out above (in-your-face overexposure being chief among them) I mentioned before that he's a mediocre* talent who made the utmost out of every opportunity he was given. He had a money look, competent and well-rounded in the ring enough to work with just about anybody, and could promo... but there were always guys around hime who could do any of those things better than him at any given time. Not saying he is where he is SOLELY because he pal'd around with Shawn, sleeps with Steph, and was backed by the machine because of nepotism, but it had a huge impact on his career.

If he went a different way- that is to say, if he drew a different lot of friends breaking in and coming up- he would have been one of those "looks the shit", by-the-numbers prototypical wrestler that WWE would have looked at and thought he could simply get over on looks alone, and then when he didn't, they write him off as a lost cause and release him, where he would have returned to WCW and bounced up and down the card on the whim of whoever was in charge of the company that month. At best, unless he lucked into something that would have been his "Austin 3:16" moment, he would have been a decent upper midcard talent being pushed and depushed on a whim. His injuries would have had him slide farther down the totem pole.

With that being said, however, one thing that is CONSTANTLY said about him is that he's "a student of the game" and "has a great mind for the business", etc., etc. He strikes me as one of those guys who, even though he was realistically not the megastar he's made out to be, he knows his shit behind the scenes. Maybe he's like one of those career 2nd string QBs who goes on to become a winning head coach. Maybe he's applying that to being COO (the actual positon, not the TV kayfabe).

*WWE wise, I mean. Isn't really a bad thing to be so-so in the major leagues.

Basically, you all are offended Triple H is treated as a "big deal" despite him actually being a big deal. The only arguments are "BOO HOO HHH BEAT MY FAV RASSLER! HE ISN'T AS GOOD AS HBK OR AS OVER AS AUSTIN OR HOGAN! HE MUST SUCK!!1" Horseshit. Triple H isn't the greatest in the ring nor is he the biggest star ever, but he has consistently been over as both a heel and as a face for over a decade. He was established before his relationship with Stephanie, and obviously his relationship has led to his current position, but to act like Triple H is a glorified midcarder who slept his way to the top is absolute horseshit. You can't deny that Triple H is damn good in the ring, that he is damn good on the mic, and pretty damn popular. Yes, he isn't the absolute best at anything but he is truly really good at every aspect of the business which is why he has been able to be on top for over a decade and be in a position of major influence over wrestling.

I think the Cornette assessment, that if the WWE were a movie he'd play the leads best friend rather than the lead, is pretty apt. He's above average in pretty much everything but still seems to lack that something extra. He is constantly over though, he knows when to take time off to keep himself fresh for the most part, I wouldn't build a company around him but I'd utilize him as the 2nd tier star as either a heel or face.

Which is what WWE has done. When has Triple H ever been the #1 guy in WWE?

99-2001: Rock and Austin were the top guys. Triple H was the #1 foil though.
Early 2002: Triple H was the top guy because he was white hot on his return, but Rock returning and the return of Hogan took over.
mid 2002- late 2003: Triple H was the top guy when he returned, but he soon turned heel and Brock/Angle were the top guys for the bulk of this period once Rock/Hogan left again.
2004: Guerrero/Benoit were "the man". HHH then was built up to help make Batista once WWE found out Orton wasn't ready to be the top guy.
2005-2010: Cena/Batista took the torch. Hell, HHH was usually on the undercard with DX or feuding with Sheamus or Jeff Hardy.
2011-now: Cena/Punk are the top guys.

I don't think Triple H ever was "shoved down our throats" as the top guy. He was always pushed a damn good wrestler, but only was the #1 face for the first half of 2002. Other than that he was pushed as the #1 heel who needed help from stables, weapons, etc. He was to be taken seriously, but he wasn't the unstoppable god of wrestling. He has helped make Benoit, Sheamus, Batista, Cena, Hardy, etc. all long-term top guys. Besides Flair, what main event guy has helped make as many guys as HHH?

Is WWE really all that wrong for trusting Triple H to steady the ship when Austin got hurt, Rock went to Hollywood, the brand split started and SmackDown! had the bulk of the stars, Brock left, Orton showed what an immature dickback he was, and to help SmackDown! when RAW boned them in the draft and needed to make new stars? Booker T at WMXIX is the only questionable decision during "HHH-palooza" and I don't think that was HHH's call. RVD was hot, but you don't put the belt on a guy who shits on the company and openly breaks the law. Steiner and Nash weren't going to get the belt, but they needed to be established as big deals in the WWE. HHH/Goldberg was a big deal and made Goldberg look like a fucking beast despite him being a horrible 1 trick pony.
