Number 7: "Am I F***ing Going Over?!"
One traumatized writer gave Powerslam writer Matthew Randazzo the following account of one of his earlier meetings with Triple H a few years ago:
I remember being nervous the first time I delivered the script to the McMahon dressing room where HHH would dress (he would never use the locker rooms with the rest of the boys). When HHH answered I told him the RAW script was ready for his review. On the first occasion, he grabbed the script, flipped through it but did not read it, and asked me point-blank: Am I f***ing going over? This first time that I delivered the script to him, he did indeed win his match, so I said yes. Then he politely gave the script back to me without reading it and said, Thats all I needed to know, and walked back into the McMahon locker room. A few months later when Gewirtz had another weekend off, I delivered another RAW script to him on a PPV Sunday. And it was the same routine. He nonchalantly flipped through it and said, Am I f***ing going over? This time, however, he was to lose his match via disqualification. He would keep his title. I said to him, Well, sort of. Then Hunter froze. He said, What do you f***ing mean, sort of? I said, You lose the match via DQ, so you still keep the title., What page? he growled. After I told Hunter the page number this occurred on, he ripped that page out, threw the rest of the script to the floor in a rage, and slammed the door in my face. Needless to say, the next day during the agents meeting, the script had somehow changed and now HHH won his match cleanly. This was hardly an isolated incident.
