  1. Improper HHH win? Abuse of power? don’t see the direction of the creative. HHH wanted to compensate Cena’s absence judging Reign inadequate to take Cena’s role…or HHH wanted to challenge Cena’s record? In the case the meanness of that guy may astosnished WWE Universe. Rumble victory of Mc Mahon family but is it really WWE’s victory?
