KLockard23 said:Why would HBK turn on Triple H in favor of Brock... Some thought he would turn against HHH last year just because he resented the idea of HHH doing something (ending the streak) that he couldn't do and lost his career over, but he tried to help him win instead. Why would he then turn on Triple H in favor of the guy who broke his arm. Even if he did turn, surely this means costing HHH the match against Brock means Hunter is retired since he lost, yeah? How is that supposed to lead to a match between the two? Triple H is so pissed about losing a match that says he can't wrestle at all anymore (not even just twice a year!) that he challenges another retired guy to fight him in one last match between them before they both retire off for good?
I would love one last great match between them (I mentioned this in another thread a short while ago) but I don't like this being the angle behind it, and I'd probably prefer HBK to stick to his retirement anyway.

Also what the f*ck is Lily?
KLockard23 said:Costing him a huge revenge match against a hated enemy - and let's remember part of that revenge is for HBK as well - is a pretty awful time for him to pull that. Reminds me somewhat of what another person said though on another message board, which is that HHH loses and then Stephanie says afterwards that she was the one who fed Brock/Heyman the retirement stip just so Triple H could finally retire and focus on family and the business behind the scenes. I think that's absurd for a couple reasons.
