HHH probably just demanded a 15-2 match so that he could put over 15 guys at once. I'm sure he wanted to be the one to take the pinfall too, but Kennedy probably jumped in and said "no, your character was damaged enough at Wrestlemania when you lost, let me take the pin."
hahaha... good one... sure it happened like that
but the guy just uses his political power a bit much. I'm mean, HBK has the same privilege...
He doesn't... He is not married to the bosses' daughter... he might has a lot of backstage power... never the same...
Yeah, he lost to Hardy, but who even remembers that? It came across as one of those fluke wins with some kind of rollup. Lame. Then Hardy loses clean to Orton at Rumble. Whoopy.
According to this logic, we have to remember who lost to who, and based on that, cheer more a certain wrestler...
Michaels has been a big star longer than Triple H, and he has political power too, but he puts people over, and not just in a subtle way. He lost to Jeff Hardy too, and the difference was Hardy looked good in that match, winning decisively. Shawn Michaels put over Mr. Kennedy cleanly, can you imagine Triple H doing that?
Michaels is an EMPLOYEE... he has power yeah, he has been there for years... more than H... he is bigger now and maybe will always be a bigger star than H... he is friends with H and for sure with Vince too... regardless of all this, HBK has to do what he is asked to... H doesn't... because he is not an employee like Michaels... HBK had to job to Hogan 3 years ago... and he oversold during the whole match because he wanted 1 win for each one and a longer feud... and he didn't get it...
Also... Kennedy got clean wins, but in the end he didn't get anything of that feud... it was rather boring and dissapointing... he just got a new finisher...
He's owns big stars in handicap matches, and most recently, he destroys the entire ECW roster in one shot. Some people might argue that he let them save face a bit by doing it with a chair, but who really notices the chair? People will just remember that Triple H whooped their asses. So what if he lost, Kennedy had to do the job...and to Chavo Guerrero, no less!
Cena and Orton did something simmilar just some weeks ago, to the raw midcard which is suposed to be better than ECW, champions included... and I haven't read a 'Randy Orton is an asshole' thread... well maybe I've read a couple... but different circumstances... Also, nobody notices if HHH destroys an entire roster besides IWC... I'm sure little kids who where at the arena last monday didn't tell their parents "mmm... you see dad?? H is not capable of putting 15 guys over... he is bigger than ECW and just saved that useless kennedy's ass, whom by the way got the pin from the more insignificant chavo"
Also, as someone said... who will remember in a few weeks that H got a chair and beat ECW's entire roster???
BTW... Good analogy that of the green power ranger...
I just hope that H realizes that the only reason he has the power he does is because Dewayne Johnson left the company. If he was still around , H would be upper midcard at best.
Sure... and The Rock would be married to Stephanie so this can work right?
And if Shelton Benjamin were in TNA, he would be 4 time world champ by now...
I just wanted to add to that last statement. If Austin had also stayed, maybe we would not see HHH allover the place and would be contained.
We might have seen a Backlash victory of H over the Rock, Cena and Austin... but we never now as they (Rock and Austin) are not wrestling anymore!!! The fact that H uses his backstage power to be champion doesn't change according to the roster... Rock and Austin are bigger stars than H... but, as I said about michaels... they are employees to WWE...
I think H will never be that big, no matter how many titles he gets... he can't compare with the heights of Flair, Hogan, Austin, Rock... but he has won his place in history... people cheer or boo him, that means people care about him... which makes a huge difference from all those incredibly talented, overrated, underused and wasted wrestlers...
