MSN Entertainment recently conducted an interview with WWE Champion Triple H in an effort to hype up the 500th Episode of Smackdown. The Game spoke about which he would rather be, a heel or a face:
"If I had my way, I'd have been a heel my whole career. I compare it to Darth Vader by the second or third movie, when he came on, you started saying, "Yeah!" even though he was trying to kill Luke Skywalker....he was just cool. There was a point in time with my character where I had been here a long time, I had a certain amount of respect from the fans and you know, I beat up a lot of people and caused mayhem, and to teenagers and kids, that is cool. It just became a cool character and we were struggling...the worse things we thought I was doing, the louder the audience would cheer me for it. I was coming out and drilling a guy with a sledgehammer and people would go nuts. So I had no choice as people basically turned me. If I thought it would work, I'd turn back in a minute."

I think most of us would agree that heel Triple H>face Triple H.
Evolution>DX. Most won't agree with me there since the kiddies loved seeing DX.

i remeber a heel triple h losing to a young chris jericho in a title match (the match that never happened), losing to shelton benjamin, and even selling test's moves just to win after road dogg and mr ass distracted test. idk if the current almighty triple would be in similar situations

lol I've said it again and again, HHH still tries to play heel, does heely stuff, but can't be it. He's worked himself into a corner over his career because he's just that much of an iconic character.

Yep, I had heard Triple H say something similar before. It's a pity because I just love good heels more than good faces in a lot of instances, and Trips can go as a heel.

Man, to hell with Triple H. He is the biggest douche around. He contributed to the downfall of the business.

I liked DX triple H, it was a man on a power trip, Dx also wasnt just for the kids, it was for everyone because it was edgy. Plus DX triple H had the epic fued with The Rock, Put Cactus Jack through a HEll in a Cell...Again.
