This is from the recent edition of the Wrestling Observer. Dave Meltzer has some very interesting news about the politicking going on, by HHH and Steph.

******

The reason why the handicap match of Triple H vs. Stephanie/Chris Jericho was changed to a 3 way match was to break up Stephanie and Jericho's "business relationship". This idea for a 3 way was the only plausible idea that the writing team could come up with to separate Stephanie from Jericho.

Many within the WWF believe that Chris Jericho was a complete failure as the Undisputed champion, blaming it on his style of wrestling and citing that he couldn't draw heat on his own. The reason believed for pairing Stephanie McMahon with Jericho was that Jericho couldn't draw the heat needed for Wrestlemania. Some say that the addition of Stephanie "saved" the World Title match at Wrestlemania. (!!!

There's an apparent feeling that nobody wants to say anything negative about Stephanie whatsoever in case it ever comes back to them since she's a major creative force in the WWF.

Word has been getting around about how many wrestlers Triple H badmouths at WWF production meetings, which I guess he attends when deciding what goes on the television shows. Any wrestlers who say anything negative about Triple H, whatsoever, will apparently be buried by Triple H at the meetings.


***********

Welcome to WCW 2002.

If this is true, can you blame Austin for staying home? He realizes the creative direction is shit, but if he says anything, he'll get buried even further. Hell, I'd sit at home too if I was him.

Yeah, I think Y2J was a crappy champ too. I really like him as champ, especially as the first ever Undisputed Champ. He is really cocky, but for some reason he failed in his role. I think when he got into the WWF in 1999, he was a better heel. But still, I wouldn't put Jericho down that much, once he turns face he'll be great again.


Can you believe it?

Everything happens for reasons I just don't know,

I don't care about anyone else but me!

I don't care about anyone!
I don't care about anyone else but me!

I don't care about anyone or anything but me!

Goddamn I love me!

Fucking bullshit they need to get an independant writer like they had when Russo was there so it will limit this poltical backstabbing bullshit.

Man, I can't wait for when they eventually break up and HHH is buried. That'll humble his steroid injecting ass. As for Stephanie, I don't care how hot she is, I'm beginning more and more to wish she gets run over by a mat truck and doesn't just end up having sore ribs like the Rock gets when he gets run over by a mat truck.

Sadly, rageparty's post shows just how poorly booked Jericho was and how stupid they made him seem to the regular fans.

I never was never fully convinced when Y2J became champion. Maybe due to the suddeness of it and Triple HHH's absence.

However, if you take it without a prescription, then it's just a drug like any other drug, and you shouldn't take it. It should only be given by a doctor." - HHH on steroid use.



Some more HHH news, What are they trying to say that HHH might have used steroids, I would never have thought that. Especailly looking at the guy he looks all naturel.

Oh, absolutely.

He's 100% natural.

BTW, everyone, a really fun game to play while watching Trips wrestle is counting the pimples on his back!

That is so odd that in some cases steriods makes you braekout with pimples, and we were just talking about HHH, and how he would never use them unless it was prescribed for a medical reason. How wierd :-D

Remember him? That whole trial took place in my hometown (Harrisburg representin' ya'll! :rolleyes: ).

For those not familiar with this, Zahorian was a Pennsylvanian doctor found guilty in 1991 of distributing steroids to Vince McMahon himself, several WWF wrestlers (including Hulk Hogan, Roddy Piper, and the Ultimate Warrior) and a college basketball coach. He served a three-year prison sentence and paid a substantial fine.

Its not that he is getting shit because he is back. It's that he is denocing the use of steriods, unless it is prescribed by a doctor. When we all know that HHH is using them anything but a medical condition.
