Thing is with Triple H is that his "grand influence" could be really good or really bad. He has the career experience from a wrestler's perspective, something many wrestling companies of the past wanted nothing to do with, and his particular track record with running a wrestling promotion isn't very strong. When promotions have been run by former wrestlers in the past, it never ended well for those promotions. And I don't just mean his buddy Kevin Nash who ran WCW into shit, but also WCW pre-Bischoff era, TNA, WCCW when Fritz kept his children on top all the time, and Stampede Wrestling in the same regard. It wouldn't surprise me at all if Triple H turned out to be similar. I don't think Triple H will run WWE into the ground and he's a lot more in-tune with the times outside of wrestling than Vince is, but can he actually elevate the company? That I'm not so sure of.
He'll continue to develop and push new stars to a certain extent, but could you really imagine Triple H suspending or even firing his own buddies when they get out of line? Do you think he would really make all his decisions based on what is best for the company after everything he's been through with so many of the wrestlers on that roster? Do you think someone like Dolph Ziggler will ever be treated as equal to someone like Randy Orton? That's just not going to happen.
The history of this business has always reminded us that you can never trust in someone with an agenda and I just don't believe Triple H's focus would or even could ever stay strictly centered on the good of the company.
OR he could be the first in his position to find monumental success. Time will tell, but I'm not holding my breath.
