The real reason why HHH wasn't on RAW and more news.

- The reason for Triple H not appearing on RAW appears to be because WWE wants the loyal Triple H fans to basically pay to see his return to TV. WWE realizes they will get more buys for the SummerSlam PPV if that's when Triple H makes his return. Of course this could change depending on what happens with ratings and everything else over the next week or so, but don't expect to see him on TV until SummerSlam.

- Part of the plan to add more interest and entertainment to the product and improve the ratings is to include more squash matches on the shows. In the last week, we've seen Snitsky and Kane both get squash wins on SmackDown and RAW.

- Last week's RAW was re-written 3 or 4 times before the final script was done. Sources say they went from being funny down to not funny at all. A proposed comedy angle to be shot for entertainment value would have saw Jonathan Coachman get fired only to be approached by William Regal, trying to hire him back. The way it goes, Coach would have turned down the offer until Regal offered him a ridiculous pay raise, then Coach would have accepted. For one reason or another, WWE decided not to go with it.

I don't like that they are bring back both Triple H and Rey Mysterio at the SummerSlam PPV. The show is going to get buys regardless. I was personally expecting to see Triple H last night .. it would have been a better build up to have him come out and confront King Booker and then challenge him to a match at SummerSlam.

It seems that there is so little build up to matches these days .. I enjoyed the days as a kid watching them build up a great feud.

I agree but they know people will pay to see HHH on summerslam.
King bookah lol will lose the crown to hhh very soon.

Back then fueds were great, but now and days they just suck and don't really make me hyped anymore.

I'm guessing because someone asked how on Earth ANYONE could find that funny...
