    I remember baby face Triple H high fiving fans at WWE house shows. It was pretty awkward. Not that Trips wasn't genuine, but it looked as if his facial structure just wasn't designed to come off as friendly while doing so, especially not when compared with John Cena and Mark Hengry, Kofi Kingston, etc.

      @Cruising_On_Lake_Havasoma 2 года назад +2

      Diesel's whole title reign was botched from the start. Let's go down the list.
      -Wins the title in an 8 second match... on a house show.
      -Gets booked as a babyface goof a la Luger.
      -Has his first title defense against Bret at the Rumble, where the WWF has to use a finish never seen before (or since AFAIK) to protect Bret instead of just... you know, having the champ win.
      -Faces HBK at Mania and is completely outclassed (which would be fine if Big Kev was a heel) because HBK goes into business for himself, and to top it off Shawn intentionally botches the finish to make Diesel look even shittier.
      -The next few PPV matches: Sid, tagging with Bigelow against Sid and Tatanka, Sid again, fucking MABEL, teams with Shawn against Bulldog and Yoko and somehow wins the tag belts by pinning Owen Hart (only to be stripped of them the next night), then Bulldog. Outside of the tag match with Shawn all of these matches were the drizzling shits.
      -The Bulldog match is so bad that Vince finally pulls the plug and puts the belt back on Bret.
      Whole thing was a dumpster fire. Should have kept him heel, he would have had much better and much more over opponents. Probably wouldn't have done much better financially because the whole business was in the shitter, but would be watchable at least.
