HHH Winning The Rumble?

By Scott Keith on January 22, 2016

> Hi, Scott. I know I’m being stubborn and stupid, but is HHH winning the Rumble really what should be done?
>
> I could better see the argument for HHH winning the Rumble and thus the title if Reigns had been repeatedly screwed in his title matches and had never held the title; finally, after fighting through everything and thinking he’s finally reached his goal, HHH swoops in, saying he promised Reigns would never get the title and would now have to beat him to get it, like a video game throwing in an extra final boss fight.
>
> I could also have seen HHH winning if it simply were the standard #1 contender’s match (though why he couldn’t just give himself a title match as the Authority figure would be a little odd), but not when the title is also on the line.
>
> With the way this has been set up, doesn’t either of the following make more sense: (1) HHH is involved in Reigns being eliminated by the eventual winner with Reigns and HHH brawling to the back or (2) #1 an exhausted (he couldn’t get into REM sleep during his nap) entrant Reigns goes the distance only to have HHH come out and destroy him with a sledgehammer, standing tall to end the show and giving Reigns a reason to challenge him at Mania?

Yeah, but that doesn’t allow HHH to win another Royal Rumble and World title, so…
