Nobody can deny that Triple H is a good worker, so let’s say that this was sloth on the part of booking. But for almost two years at the turn of the century, Triple H held on to the top spot and would take the steam off what was once the hottest period in wrestling.
He would beat Flair, Booker T, Scott Steiner and Goldberg, and only drop his titles to his friends Shawn Michaels and Randy Orton. In fact, through his actions, even Kane would lose all momentum after he was unmasked during this dark period.

Smackdown gained momentum at this time, and Raw became unwatchable because of Triple H’s lazy, boring title run.
