HH:
>literally handed the belt on RAW, damaging its reputation from the get go
>RVD was the first victim, massively over with the fans and Vince, but Trips nixed the idea of having him win. The 'Unforgiven' ppv they faced off in had Trips win at the middle of the card as opposed to the WWE title main event and relegating it as nothing more than another piece to a storyline of Ric Flair becoming more and more involved with Hunter
>Kane was white hot at this time, and HHH does the 'Katie Vick' storyline which leads to the banging her corpse in a funeral home. This culminates in the IC title unifying with the world belt
>Trips has no problem dropping the belt to his friend, Shawn Michaels for a feel good one month reign only to win it back from him
>Scott Steiner debuts and is the first of former WCW guys being beaten by Trips. He and Scott have an arm wrestling match and a pose down in the ring and couldn't wait for Scott to heal his groin injury
>Booker T gets buried at 'Mania, including the 'nappy hair' speech and the 18 seconds to pin him after the pedigree
>Goldberg debuts and does manage to unthrone Triple H, but H eventually went on to beat Goldberg 3 times
>Evolution debuts and only the one's chosen by Triple H are the one's he's going to put over. Orton fails as champ and so Trips puts it back on him
>promo's that just went on and on and on.
