It's time.
I was watching some YT clips from this angle earlier today and yesterday and this shit was gold - way better than any angle I can recall from the last number of years. I was into it when it happened and re-watching the videos was enjoyable all these years later.
The ramifications of the angle did a lot to permanently alter the WWE and wrestling landscape and not necessarily for the better, however. As good as HHH was in late '99, he would later basically use his relationship with the McMahons to push himself to the moon and bury others.
But let's focus on this particular angle here... I do think one negative about it is that it really buries Test. He comes across as weak and as such a tool, never really able to stand up for himself. Instead of going hard after HHH, he breaks up cordially with Steph and is willing to just kind of step aside. That's not very manly behavior for a guy who relied a lot on his look and size to get over.
What do you remember about this storyline?
