He deserves to be rated at least on the level of Jeff Jarrett, so I'll put him at a 4

The cold hard truth about HHH is that he was Horace Grant. A good role player who played among legends.

You would never ask HHHorace Grant to carry your team or company, but he can get by fine when surrounded by all-time talent.

This is is extremely hard, because I want to judge talent on what they were like as a performer but with Cripple H it's hard because his whole WWE career has involve political maneuvering of some sort.

I give him a Hitman special, 4

Mic Work: Strong on the mic, but not a great promo. It's like the indie rapper who can rap his ass off with long multis but cannot make a song from start to finish. Him doing a 20 min promo is pure ego driven and it ends up boring people then engaging them. Look at the Austin promos of the AE, he pretty much wrapped up everything in 10 mins. You just getting started at the 10min mark with his promos. The shoot comments did no one any favours, especially in the position he has been in for the past decade, when you're suppose to help get people over not shovel them.

Gimmick/Personality: Had some good gimmick names but he's been the same old Cripple H since the 90's , to me he never evolved alot like Cenas character.

Ring Work: Good hand, more gatekeeper type of wrestler. But once his second quad injury happen it was a wrap for him as a consistent performer. He was good in the ring up till the first quad injury, then when he came back was okish after that, but he clearly lost something. :pacspit: the sledgehammer BS.

His best feuds are with the two people who pretty much made him, Foley and The Rock.

:hhh: is the ultimate opportunist, let's be reality here, has anyone ever known anyone who is teetotal go out of their way to go and befriend a bunch of addicts.

Also it's :laff: putting :hhh: on the same level as Austin and Rock, let alone next to Foley who were cornerstones of the AE and have multiple moments and highlights from the era. What is Cripples, kidnapping Steph? The early DX was more coked and pilled out Michaels and being in awe of Chyna whether she she was a real women or born with meat and 2 vegetables instead and post Michaels, it is more DX the collective.

I know people will have mentioned the backstage/behind the scene stuff so there is no point in repeating it again.

A founding member of the KLIQ.
Mic work: 8 put say they don’t like him, well he is the heel so it works.
Ring work: he can go , he can have a match with anyone but when working with superior talent like HBGOAT and Daniel Bryan the matches become 4-5 stars easy.
He gets criticized for working with his pals and burying young talent well this a competitive sport and like it or not KLIQ runs the business.
He is an overall 9, only 10’s in this business

He's an 8.

He's been a part of classic matches, classic feuds and held his end up just fine. Has had some very strong promos over the years.

Two of my all time favorite wrestling walkouts belong to him :hhh:

(Survivor Series 2000, Wrestlemania 17)


From 99-01 dude was VERY good as a heel.

NXT love is going to make history be much kinder to his legacy than things would've been without it.

He's never been THE guy which isn't a knock on him considering his peak just happened to be when you had two goats at the same time in their primes during your prime . .. but he's been a great tool to have in the shed
















All that said. I'm a proud HHH detractor so I'm here to see tsc gang attack him in this thread.
