Triple H - The Wrestling Post

Why Triple H was Moved to Smackdown

matt@iscribelimited.com (Rock Bottoms) — Wed, 25 Jun 2008 07:45:02 EST

Of all the moves that took place during this week's WWE Draft, the most shocking was that of Triple H to Smackdown.

WWE rumors have been circulating, though, that the decision was based on personal reasons.

The schedule on Smackdown is actually a lot more convenient for Triple H, considering that wife Stephanie McMahon-Levesque is due to give birth in about a month. She'll be taking the babies on the road upon her return to work.

Makes sense to us. We also can't wait for an Edge vs. Triple H feud!

Scott Steiner Slams Triple H, Shawn Michaels

Kevin Eck of The Baltimore Sun has conducted another interview with TNA Wrestling star Scott Steiner this week. The muscle-bound freak didn't speak too kindly about Triple H or Shawn Michaels.

Steiner on Triple H: Look at Triple Hâs career before he started (having sex with) the bossâ daughter: He lost to Ultimate Warrior in 30 seconds; he was losing to guys like Alex Wright in WCW; he lost to one of the Godwins in a pig slop match. And then all of a sudden heâs [having sex with] the bossâ daughter and heâs the toughest guy in the world. Iâm not the only guy who thinks that.

Steiner on HBK: Shawn Michaels is one of those wise-cracking guys who would say a smart comment to you, but then if you face him, he would run and cry somewhere. Thatâs exactly what happened one time when he was cutting down the Harris Brothers " I think it was Don Harris.

Finally, he had enough. He waited until Shawn Michaels got in the room, kicked everybody out of the room, shut the door, grabbed him by the neck and was going to pound the [heck] out of him. A tear came down his eye. He turned around, started laughing and walked out. That is Shawn Michaels in a nutshell.

What do you think of Scott Steiner's comments?

WWE Spoilers: Triple H's Next Feud

The blackout at the end of WWE Raw this week was reportedly done to set up two things.

To plant the seeds of a forthcoming William Regal vs. Triple H feud
To not give away the ending of the Orton/Triple H match, with a steel cage battle coming up at Judgment Day.

Does that make sense to anyone? Triple H will feud with Regal because he turned the broadcast off? Shouldn't the viewers feud with Regal over that nonsense?

Terri Runnels Shows Love for Triple H

Terri Runnels appeared on the Monday Night Mayhem radio show last week and was asked if there was any pressure on her for being married to somebody in the company at the time.

The hosts used Triple H and Stephanie McMahon as an example, saying that people argue over whether he has his position in the WWE due to his marriage. Terri replied with the following defense of Triple H:

"I will defend Triple H in a heartbeat because I remember way back when, I don't remember what year it was, but this was way back in WCW when Paul was at a party that Diamond Dallas Page and Kimberly threw, this was a Christmas party. And he had just gotten in the business, and I remember, everyone was saying "Here's this new kid" and he had just come in the business and, I remember watching him, and what I respected about him was, he was such a student of the business.

You could tell he wanted to soak up and learn absolutely everything he could. And so for that, you cannot, there's no way, if you really know who Paul Levesque is, and what he's done, the way he has ate, slept, and breathed this business, long before Stephanie, there's no way you can say he needed Stephanie to do anything. He didn't. And I think it's a great disservice to him whenever any fan says that.

Yes of course his life is made easier in terms of what he gets to do, I'm sure if he has an idea, it probably flies a lot quicker than, you know, any other Joe Blow, but to say that he hasn't earned the place that he's at in this business, I think is unfair."

Triple H on Idol Gives Back

Triple H was his intimidating self on the American Idol special fundraiser last night, Idol Gives Back. This time, though, The Game wasn't threatening an opponent with a sledge hammer.

He was encouraging viewers to donate to charity. Big difference there.

WWE Rumors: A Triple H Heel Turn, Title Run

matt@iscribelimited.com (Rock Bottoms) — Wed, 09 Apr 2008 07:31:21 EST

According to the Wrestling Observer Newsletter, head SmackDown! writer Michael Hayes wants to move Triple H over to the SmackDown! brand. Hayes wants Triple H to work as a heel in a main event program against The Undertaker.

As you might expect, not many within WWE that expect Triple H to make the jump. There is still a stigma that SmackDown! is the "B" brand and Triple H has been against moving to Smackdown! in the past. He wants to dominate on RAW, though he is not opposed to turning heel and definitely wants a run with the title.

The Wrestling Post Take: We've been saying this for months: Turn John Cena heel instead! A lot of the crowd already boos him. When Cena returns full-time after filming his latest movie, have him cut a promo, dissing fans for a lack of support. We can see it now: "If you wanna boo me, I'll give you reasons to boo me!"

A Cena/Triple H feud, with Cena as the heel, would be a major ratings grabber throughout the summer. What do you think of it?

Triple H's Brother-in-Law Passes Away

matt@iscribelimited.com (Rock Bottoms) — Thu, 07 Feb 2008 09:03:49 EST

We now have a definitive (sad) reason for why Triple H missed WWE Raw on Monday.

The grappler's 41-year old brother-in-law, Gordon B. Ouellette (who was married to his sister Lynn Levesque) suddenly passed away earlier in the day at Southern NH Medical Center.

He leaves behind two children, Peter and Neysa Ouellette.
