Triple H speaks on Flair

[MikeRaw]

During a recent appearance on the "Busted Open" show on Sirius XM radio, Triple H told Dave LaGreca that he has mixed feelings regarding Ric Flair's desire to return to the ring after his retirement at WrestleMania 24. Triple H added, "There's a part of me that's bitter sweet. As much as I enjoy Ric on the show and I miss seeing Ric Flair on the show, I feel that he was given the ultimate sendoff in the business. There have been so many guys in the past...they retire and unretire then they retire and they unretire. It's almost a joke when they un-retire. He really wanted to be the guy who said, meant it, and did it. I don't know if he misses the business or he needs the money. I'm not sure what it is, but if he's thinking about coming back there has to be a pretty good reason because he was pretty adamant about that never happening."

Despite appearing with WGTT partner Shelton Benjamin on Smackdown the past few weeks, Charlie Haas teamed with Mike Knox at the Smackdown/ECW live event in Las Cruces, NM last night again and were billed as the Haas-Knox Connection. Shelton worked a singles match earlier in the night losing to John Morrison.

I agree with HHH's comments, and it's good to see he's speaking up on this.

Also, Charlie should stay as Shelton's lackey atm, without becoming a proper tag team.

I think Triple H is just JEALOUS!

And damn them for not reuniting the WGTT!

 

[MikeRaw]

Yeah, about the Knox/Haas thing... I hope theydont' stick with it. I don't see any way they'd be a succesful tag team. Shelton and Haas actually make sense to have paired together, and have the same type of gimmick.
And I've already said what I think of Flair. I have no problem with it yet, if it's just a short term storyline. Other people seem to, but I'm fine with it... But if he ends up wrestlign more than like, 1 or 2 matches, I'll be pissed.

Are you serious? If you are, would you care to explain why?

Man, IWF needs dodgy so I can mark my sarcasm.

^^^^A little " : P " or a :shifty: should do the trick.

Anyway, good on HHH for being relatively(*) honest.

(*I guess if you actually read into him being good mates with Flair, it's a polite way of him saying "Ric, that sucks!")

 

[Moonlight Drive]

Everyone missed the most important part!

Suck it, Dylan.

Good for HHH speaking up about how he feels. Pretty good he is been honest didnt think he would speak out on it with him been close to Flair, But then again his passion and feelings for the buisness must go deeper good on him. But I'm with Mike Raw on this, At the moment I'm not pissed by the Flair thing i think it will be short lived. A couple of matches and Promo's I'm cool with. But if he really wants and does come back full time then yeah thats just a piss take and Then it makes the whole big send off retirement thing was a waste of time and pretty much sucks. But IL see how it pans out before i lay into Flair.

hmmmmmmmmmmm...Triple H speaking his mind in a semi-anti fashion in regards to Flair coming back, and Batista constantly telling Flair to take it easy and trying to keep Flair away from the ring...sounds a bit interesting, Maybe Flair doesn't comne back full time but actually assists Orton and becomes the 'father' of Legacy, promo man sort of, manager type like James J. Dillon was for the original Horsemen. Could work well with Orton, Rhodes, Dibiase and POSSIBLY Reid Flair.

If this is not where they are heading with this then I respect HHH for speaking his mind. Hope Flair really doesn't 'wrestle' any more, I really don't, its a slap in the face to all the fans and his peers who gave him the best sendoff EVER.

Haas w/o Benjamin is a no-no. Haas really has nothing without Benjamin at the moment, Mike Knox is a waste of space and putting Haas with him rather than keeping him with Shelton kinda puts into perspective where the E sees Haas.

Morrison w/ another win over Shelton = Good.

^^^LOL... Shelton currently ain't much without Hass either IMO.

WGTT v The Colons FTW!
