Poll Closed: Triple H Should NOT Step Down

In my recent poll I asked if Triple H should step down as WWE COO. The vote results stated that you all think he should NOT step down, and I agree! I think all the problems are being caused by someone else and Triple H will eventually find out who and take are of who ever it is and get things back on track!

Here is the summary of his role as COO so far...

At the end of the July 18, 2011 episode of Raw, Triple H returned on behalf of WWE's board of directors to relieve his father-in-law Vince McMahon of his duties. This was followed by the announcement that he had been assigned to take over as Chief Operating Officer (COO) of the WWE. This was during a storyline where CM Punk had won the WWE Championship and left the company. Though a new champion was crowned, Triple H helped resign CM Punk and upheld both championship reigns. He announced he would referee a match to unify both WWE Championships at SummerSlam. Although he counted a pin-fall for CM Punk to win, John Cena's leg was on the ropes which would break the pin. Regardless, Triple H's longtime friend Kevin Nash attacked Punk immediately after the match to allow Alberto Del Rio to become champion. Though Nash and Punk demanded a match against each other, Triple H fired Nash for insubordination and booked himself in a "No Disqualification" match at Night Of Champions with his position of COO on the line. He won the match despite interference from Nash, John Laurinaitis, The Miz and R-Truth. After repeated attacks from these wrestlers in various matches, the majority of WWE's on-screen staff gave Triple H a vote of no confidence and he was relieved of his duties on Raw but remained COO. In the following episode Vince McMahon appeared on Raw and officially relieved Triple H of his duties of running Raw, and named John Laurinaitis as interim GM. In the same night, during a match featuring CM Punk, Triple H rushed in to save Punk from an ambush from The Miz and R-Truth. It's been confirmed that Triple H and CM Punk will be facing Truth and Miz in a tag-team at the upcoming WWE Vengeance pay-per-view.
