I agree with you on WM at least... I think it was just HHH's time to give it up... But I guess if they are building up a proper Heel to feud with Goldberg, I guess HHH did need to win that match.

As for Austin, he has dropped many matches in PPV's, interference not withstanding. Also, Austin has spent most of his career as a face. Its his JOB to win the title from guys like HHH. HHH is a heel... a HEEL. Its his job to make the faces look good and bring them heat. All he does is kill the heat of EVERY WRESTLER HE GOES UP AGAINST. Please name me the last time HHH dropped a title on a PPV.

Well, HHH lost to Vince, Big Show, The Rock, Hogan, and HBK... as for dropping major titles (WWF, WWE, World)... and the last time was HBK and a few months earlier Hogan.

The entire build up for wrestlemenia was perfect for Booker T to win the title. The crowd was READY for Booker T to win the title. They WANTED him to win the title. Any booker in their right mind would have put the title on him that night and crown a new champion that the fans have been begging for. What did we get? The same old thing from the same old HHH. Hell, he even made sure to wait a long time to cover Booker to make sure he sucked any heat that Booker may have had out of his dead carcass. Oh, and BTW, HHH's Ric Flair impersonation doesn't help him out either.

lol... I hate Ric Flair.
As for the slow pin, that did kinda suck, but at the same time Flair was cheating the WHOLE match. By no means can that be considerd a fair victory. HHH, as a heel, doesn't look like he was supposed to win that match, because there was more than enough cheating.

Its almost as if HHH's job is to kill all up and coming talent in the WWE. The gets paired up against all the rising stars and newcomers (Jericho, RVD, Booker T, Steiner (ok, he sucks but still...), "name your superstar here") and squashes them, and then watches as they filter back down to the mid card.

nah, it's not HHH's job to kill them, it's thier job to make HHH look good

I sat in my livingroom during wrestlemania and waited for Booker T to win. Finally HHH was going to do what was right for the business. All the signs were there and the timing was perfect.
What I got was a feeling that nothing is ever going to change at the top of the card. And we wonder why business is down.

That wasn't really a top of the card match... that's why I had feelings right before the match that Booker may just lose... If it were the main event or at least in the top two matches of the show, then I would have expected more of a fan pleasing ending.
I mean, when you really take a hard look at HHH's belt, what does it even mean right now? When is the last time HHH's match was even made to be the main event? Rock and Austin may have lost the belt more times, but they at least lost in a big main event like fashon. What was the HHH match? Not even in the top four.
