Was Triple H trying to bury the Steve Austin/Rock WM 17 Main Event?

[Dave24]

After watching these promos, do you think HHH was trying to bury the WM 17 main event? I guess he has always been insecure that he was never the number 1 guy like Austin and Rock.

Wrestling is scripted clown

 

[PortCityProphet]

My god that shyt was boring

 

[Tres Leches]

he was the b+ player back then to the rock/stonecold's A

 

[BlackAchilles]

Holy shyt you neckbeards probably think Triple H was the mastermind behind slavery and the Holocaust too

 

[Beautiful Bobby Eatin]

He was prob selling the match which at that time was a HUGE match. It wasnt for a title and he wanted to make it seem important.

 

[FRIED MASON]

HHH's promos are status.

Yep. He had been doin that to Rock but he finally had the balls to start undermining Austin now that he was officially Stephanie’s dude. You can see it in the booking in the Power trip angle.

Probably my most tolerable Cripple H promo..I remember it like yesterday because waa missingbthe night after NWO 01. In retrospect, he was trying the Takee match because he knew the fans were insane over the Rock/Austin war of 2001. Which was teased ever since Austin came back..Sept 2000..Armageddon 2000..Rumble 01...etc.

Around that time, I was always wondering why Cripple H never faced Taker..it was like he was hiding from that character..Taker lost to him in Nov 2000 on Smackdown with heavy Angle interference. That was it. So I wanted to see Taker go over Cripple H...

There's absolutely no way that the future HOF permanent co-star could ever bury two all time greats.

 

[JOHN.KOOL]

He wasn't trying bury the main event he was a heel doing a heel promo by shytting on the two biggest babyfaces and drawing heat for his match.

Nah, Triple H vs. Undertaker was a big match, just trying to get that over and it's remembered fondly. I know that sledgehammer spot was one of the best near falls of the entire streak, I'd put it up there with Arn Anderson's spindebuster and later Triple H doing the tombstone in I believe WM 27

I miss HHH when had some semblance of cardio. That 2nd quad tear was a done deal and was working on borrowed time.

He was already a gear slower after the 1st quad tear. HHH's prime got stunted by some serious injuries. We saw some flashes of prime 2001 HHH, but shyt... He fell off hard after those PEDs rek this body from 99-2001.

Not to shyt on Hunter because its the cool thing to do on the internet, but damn a lot of his "classics" dont hold up anymore and you can tell this looking back
