>>10786962Phil wasn't only hot, he was the hottest I've ever seen a wrestler in my entire life. Wrestling was so dead and boring at the time, and the pipe bomb was like a jolt of electricity in to the entire industry. It actually went mainstream again for a couple of months.
So of course HHH had to bury him. I'm sure he claimed it would give him great heel heat and the pop would be amazing when Punk got his win back too.
