What's the biggest revisionist history surrounding HHH's career?
>>
that he drew dimes
>>
that he didn't shit his pants from nerves before his WCW PPV match with Alex Wright
>>
>>12956858
It wasn't a tank it was a Jeep with a PVC pipe attached to it
>>
>>12956858
That he only main evented due to Steph even though he was multi world champ and top heel in the company prior to parking her and actually put his entire career and 7 figure salary at risk by dating the daughter of the most famously neurotic and petty man in the industry.
>>
>>12956858
>He was really good & over before the Quad Tear in the spring of 2001
He was always a boring shitter who couldn't draw heat & booked himself with the best wrestlers, who carried him in every feud or match to make him look good
>>

>>12956858
that he was a major player in beating WCW
everything else is accurate
>>
>>12956903
This, his heel run flopped and they had to pair him with the McMahons since he was getting no heat on his own

>That he got over on his own merits of being good and wasn't because he was forced to fuck the boss's daughter to survive after the Clique fell apart, Shawn fucked off and Taker called him out for being a bitch
>>
That he didn't draw dimes. he's one of the biggest draws in sports
>>
>>12956858
Pretty much all of it. He would have been working the door at some shit bar if it wasn't for the Kliq needed someone sober to drive them around, and then having the boss' daughter fall in love with him.
>>
>>12957264
This. Prichard said nobody wanted to push him initially except Russo. Who Shawn had under his thumb
>>
>>12957237
He's literally the Jeff Jarrett of WWE, when he won the title and fantasy booked his career you can tell that's when it died
>>
>>12957296
I'll never forgive him for fucking up Kane's 02 push when Kane was ready to set the world on fire because he just couldn't deal with not being the top guy
>>
>>12957296
That's an apt comparison Anon, good job.
>>
>>12957264
Triple h was smart to do that. Funny how as much of a dick HHH was, Punk was the exact same way in the indies, and they hate each other
>>
>>12957322
To be fair, Kane doesn't give a shit about world titles or being pushed.
>>
That he was ever more over than his entrance and finish.
>>
>>12957276
Confirmed per Cornette too. So basically zvince Russo was responsable for making Gaytch a main eventer. In that case it's true that he killed wrestling

"DX started the attitude era"
>>
>>12957348
I know that Kane was the epitome of company man and god love him for that, but I wish just once he had the slightest bit of ambition, because he was nuclear white hot in 2002-2003 and could have exploded but Haitch buried him. I wish he had just stood up and said, "No Paul"
>>
>>12957435
When you go back in rewatch it, it becomes full on edge when Shawn returns and turns heel on Undertaker at Summerslam
>>
>>12957468
>No paul
>Okay, you'll lose in 30 seconds and if you refuse, you're fired along with your best friends in the back
>O-okay.. Paul..
>I QUIT!!!!
>*CHOKESLAMS PAUL THROUGH THE VINCE'S OFFICE DESK*
>*gets on his knees to pray for God's forgiveness for what he's about to do*
>*sets Vince on fire and rapes Stephanie*
>>
>>12957435
Even if this were true, there's still the fact Paul was the most boring and bland member, as well as the least over.
>>
>>12956858
That he was on par with Stone Cold and The Rock in the Attitude era.
>>
>>12956858
>That his reign of terror was good
>That he was anything other than midcard before the year 1999
>He wasnt a cancer backstage/locker room
>Hes not the reason why chyna downward spiraled
>Ultimate smark turned wrestler waay before people like punk and kenny made a go at it
>He actually cares about nxt and is creative
>People want to see him main event still
>>
>>12957543
He was the essential smark pick, nobody liked him except workrate fags who meltzer convinced was good since he was given credit for the matches that Rock, Benoit, Foley, Angle & Jericho carried him in
>>
>>12956893
Nah you are

that he was ever punished for this he was in the fucking main event in a year at most
>>
>>12957566
>>12957583
I'm not disagreeing that he was the prototype of smark-turned-wrestler but why would someone who's a workrate simp train under Kowalski?
>>
>>12957881
Triple H is a mystery, why did he hang out with the Kliq when he had nothing in common with them? He buried Shawn 6 feet deep when he came back, pretty weird for a best friend.
Rock always made his best friends Foley, Austin & Jericho look good.
Austin degraded himself as a chickenshit heel to make Benoit, Angle look good.
Kurt made everyone who wasn't complete shit like Orton look good
Triple H went out of his way to establish to the new legions of fans that HBK was inferior to him
>>
>>12957958
HHH played the game, no pun intended.
He played designated driver with the Kliq, despite the fact that he probably had nothing common with any of them.
He ran roughshoud in 99' over everyone, couldn't get over, and then got paired with Stephanie.
When Vince came back in 2000, they quickly turned Vince heel again, even though he was over as a face. What this meant though, is that HHH got more screentime because he'd be there with Vince.
Rock finally ended the feud with him in a match that Rock pinned Vince to win the title.
For Summer of 2000, Rock was barely on TV even though he had the fucking belt.
Meanwhile, HHH has like three storylines and is all over the fucking show.

This is on the money
>>
it's just the little things that annoy me. Like literally how every single poll or vote that they have on social media has to involve him somehow. Take this one from yesterday for example, the best ever Spinebuster.

The fact Arn Anderson isn't on there is a joke, but guess who is.

that his pop at the 2002 Royal Rumble was bigger than Mr. Perfect's
>>
>>12956858
That he was always hated and that he got where he was just because he married the boss's daughter
>>
>>12956897
This

>>12957296
I wouldn't go that far, Triple H at least easily felt like he belonged in the main event, he just overdid it. Jeff Jarrett was a straight up unambiguous midcarder.
>>
That he led DX. For a long time when I was a kid I just thought Shawn Michaels was just some midcarder Triple H took under his wing. Later did I learn that not only Michaels created DX, but the original DX was actually incredibly based and Michaels himself had more entertainment value in a 5 minutes appearance than Gaytch did in his entire career.
