3. Can’t Have A Successful Run Without A Stable
I want you to look back over the ENTIRE championship career of Triple H and ask yourself. Name a time when Triple H was NOT champion without either DX, Evolution or the McMahons in his corner? You can’t can you. Because the funny thing about his title runs is that his woefully untalented skills were ALWAYS supported and backed up by a group or Superstars, some of which were much better than him in every single way. I am sorry but with Ric Flair & Evolution or DX in your corner, you are going to look good even if you are the Gobbledy Gooker.
Now I don’t know about you, but this simple yet overlooked fact says to me that he couldn’t carry a show or segment by himself if his life depended on it. For those who may disagree, I ask you. How is it that the ratings plunged down so far during the Evolution days. That featured Bill Goldberg’s return and first time in the WWE (not to mention Scott Steiner) no less. This should have been ratings gold. But after the same monotonous rhetoric day in and day out (I am the Game, I am the Cerebral Assassin, blah blah blah) you all willingly turned off and went to have a look at that new upstart TNA. Although that didn’t last all that long either.
The only times he ever dropped the title in this era as well was merely a way for him to get another notch on his resume, as each person who won the championship off him (Bill Goldberg, Shawn Michaels) only had a run of about 3-4 weeks. From the moment he was given the “Big Gold” to Wrestlemania 20 he held the title that whole time apart from the aforementioned weeks off to help solidify his non-existent legacy. And it was in this time where the WWE suffered a catastrophic ratings collapse to which it has still yet to recover.
