That reminds me, what is Kaitlyn's last name supposed to be anyways? Everyone seems to have a last name except her. And I guess Naomi and Cameron if they count.

they're practically full-on wrestlers now, so yeah. There's Nattie, too, but everyone already knows her last name anyway. And NXT has Bayley, Paige, Emma, and Charlotte
Bonin if they're feeling lazy.
Possibly, even if they remember it. You could also have him say "I'm giving up my rematch clause to go for the streak." or something to that effect....because I'm thinking Cena vs Taker at Mania. They have to do that soon right? Taker doesn't have many years left.

It's a decent show. Not a huge reality TV fan, and it comes across as scripted most of the times. But the talent does better here than on regular TV.
I hope they add AJ, Layla and Kaitlin for season 2. Honestly, the 2 new girls seem to have the least presence.
Also, AJ's promo was pretty good. I was pleasantly surprised. I really think they're not using her and a few of the Divas right (Nattie, Naomi, AJ seem decent ring wise). Arianne, I cannot stand on the show, Tough Enough or Raw. Not sure how she has a job.

Triple H got the undertaker to break Keyfabe to be a talking head for his DVD?
Weird. But totally something Trips would ask for.

I mean, to deny that HHH has had an amazing career and leaves a lasting legacy would be disingenuous and objectively incorrect. But to say that he's the best there is, the best there was, and the best there ever will be in a business that counts Bret Hart, Ric Flair, HBK Shawn Michaels, Kenta Kobashi, pre-TNA Kurt Angle, and RKO amongst its ranks is a leap I can't make.
I already love Nash in the preview.

Sigh, between Punk, Cena and HHH, who had the worst match with Brock Lesnar?
Michael Jordan? I'm not Bret Hart, but I probably wouldn't put him in my top 20 (combination of GOATs and icons). Man, I remember hating the company forcing him down my throat in the late 90s. It was crazy, Austin and Rock were organic movements. He was still a good talent. But he wasn't a great promo like Austin/Rock/Foley, great worker like censored/Hart/Angle/Michaels, etc.
Probably similar reasons for why a lot of people can't stand Cena today.
I mean, yeah, hhh was great and was a strong point in the attitude era, but:
-He didnt save the busisness, stone cold did (without him, vince eventually would have sold wwf to ted turner)
-He isnt the greatest heel of all time (MILLION DOLLAH MAN BABY)
-When you mention wrestling to an average joe, HHH isnt the first thing that comes to his mind.
...And i can continue all night.

Are you implying that Punk had a bad match with Lesnar?

Are you trolling?
Out of the following performers, who had the worst match with Brrock Lesnar?
A) John Cena
B) HHH
C) CM Punk
D) Vince McMahon
Out of the following performers, who had the worst match with Undertaker?
A) Shawn Michaels
B) HHH
C) CM Punk
D) Michelle McCool
It's supposed to be a knock on HHH.
Was not what I was expecting.
Not one bit.
I don't think I could laugh hard enough at that. Hahahaha!
Nope. That's pretty much the extent of the gimmick. I'm not sure what they see in Connor O'Brien that they put him on TV NXT and have spent a lot of time on the revamped NXT on him. Even if he were to get called up, he isn't going to be ore than a low card guy who will do squashes on Superstars.

Batista saying it really doesn't mean much..besides Who the fuck is going to buy a Triple H DVD? Besides the Rock and Taker..this is sad really if Triple H could only get a kind word from the Kliq, his wife, his father-in-law and members of evolution.

Is he a bigger draw than Cena, Hart, Hogan, Flair, Rock, Austin, Sting, Ultimate Warrior, Samartino (SP), etc?
Is he a better heel than Rick Rude, Jake the Snake, Randy Savage, Sgt Slaughter, Flair, Roddy Piper, Million Dollar Man, etc?
Is he a better worker than Steam Boat, Savage, Benoit, Shawn Michaels, CM Punk, Bryan, Samoa Joe, Aries, Bret Hart, Kurt Angle, etc?
To me, HHH was solid. He was obviously a company man. But it's like the position he reached was simply being in the right place/right time, politicking and being married to the boss' daughter. He definitely knew how to play the game.

I think it helped to have someone like HHH when Austin was there. I have always preferred HHH has a heel, I think he does that part well. I think he has good mic skills too.
He is not the best and will never be. But he is from the family and was always going to get preferential treatment.

This is an interesting question. I don't know where HHH stands as a draw, though I suspect he wouldn't be remembered as one of the top 10 draws in the history of the company.
But as far as the other two categories go, I think he's had moments where he could be mentioned alongside those other fighters. I think his current heel work is amazing. And the man has been involved in some great, great fights. But it's just never come together over any sustained amount of time, and that makes it difficult for me to consider him to be one of the best.
Are you kidding? I barely remember any Austin/HHH feud outside of one. HHH feuded with the Rock, mainly.

Yeah sometimes. I marathoned a couple of Nic Cage movies in a day once with the ones i had lying around, and it was kind of a bad idea because some of them were the forgettable, boring type of bad.

I got one on my mind it ends with the 3 Stages of Hell match? Was their more feuds with Austin?

To be honest, Kurt Angle was a bigger star in the Attitude Era then Triple H. Kurt was a beast, and the stable with Christian and Edge was hilarious. How did Triple H stay in relevance the stupid commissioner storyline?

Not to say, he didn't feud with Austin. But we obviously remember Austin's meaningful WWE feuds as Hart, Michaels, McMahon and Rock. All the others never resonated.
I remember all of Hunter's matches with the Rock. That was probably his biggest rivalry/feud. Honestly, I'd say his peers like Jericho, Angle, etc have a better legacy. But he was definitely the WWEs #1 heel in the late 90s to the end of the 2000s, but it was mainly due to the position he was in, not because the fans took to it.
That's the one I'm talking about.
