Triple H was the biggest superstar in the world at this time

[Ill-Yaz]

Dont forget that Austin and Rock were still around at this time.

However, WWE still gave this spot to Triple H.

This shows that he was the no.1 guy in the company who were going in a new direction.

 

[Chris Cool]

Or that he just returned from injury.

Or that he just returned from injury.

So everyone who returns from injury gets put into that spot? Cmon you know that's no true.

Went from top 5 to not mentioned at all before the year ended.

Jeff Hardy
Edge
Brock
Rock
RVD

 

[Kidd Dibiase]

 

[Toe Jay Simpson]

The original Mr. Missionary

How you go from a standing O to people turning off the TV in droves in less than a year.

 

[Bud Bundy]

The original Mr. Missionary

 

[Larry]

Yeah it was the injury


The long layoff made for a big pop upon return. The marketing was great too. That U2 hype video they were running was incredible






But saying he was the biggest star is revisionist history

 

[MenacingMonk]

Ok, You love the guy. Get off his dikk with these threads dedicated to him, Stan.

 

[Cal Cutta]

The T Pain rant on Timberlands makes this even funnier

 

[TheGreatShowtime]

Triple H is a piece of sh*t.

 

[boriquaking]

It doesn’t let me neg you.

 

[reserved_one]

It was the injury and the build up that made HHH the hottest wrestler at the time nh but after wrestlemania 18 nobody cared anymore

 

[Starboy52]

Literally got colder with every week after the rumble, to the point where people walked out on his Main Event at Mania and he dropped the title to Hogan less than a month later.


Do better, breh.
