HHH was over, yes I admitt that....BUt, not as over as The Rock. Rock & Austin were the most over in late '99. HHH mighta been over but no way in comparison.
And HHH HAD to put guys like 'Tista, Cena, Hardy over 'cause they were getting more popular than HHH, and he couldn't just push them down like he did in the past to Kane, Booker T, RVD, Scotty Steiner, ect. like CMS has said. He SHOULD have put them over, but at that time HHH was aat an all-time high Ego. And so was idiot Vince for having that done. HHH had a say in his storylines, outcomes, and others I assure you. I dont have proof, but it's a guarantee.
Yea he wasent as over as the rock or stone cold but he is still in the wwe they arent. He had a couple reigns when they were already gone. And i think your concentrating to much on who he dident put over and not enough on who he did. You cant expect him to put over everybody he goes against cause then he would lose credibility. Point is he is nothing like hitler he puts people over and isnt just thinking about himself. Even in the attitude era him and the rock would put each other over. Its not like there was a time in the Mcmahon helmsley era where he totally dominated.The top 3 superstars in the attitude era were stone cold,the rock and triple h. All of them had signifigant title reigns.
