Doing right by the business
By Scott Keith on 9 April 2019
In their retirement matches, Ric Flair, Shawn Michaels, Kurt Angle, Batista all "did the right thing for the business" by jobbing. How do you think HHH's retirement match will go, if it ever comes?
I think the whole notion of "doing the right thing for business" is really outdated and silly anyway. It's not like the old days where these guys have any influence or bearing on the state of the business anyway, so putting someone else over on the way out means nothing. Roman Reigns beating Undertaker didn't make Reigns into a bigger star. Especially it's silly when these old-timers are losing retirement matches to other old-timers. Like, it's wonderful that Flair chose to go out putting over Shawn Michaels, but Shawn himself retired two years later anyway, putting over Undertaker! How is any of that "best for business"?
Anyway, I'm sure HHH will lose if he ever decides to go out for good.
