Probably one of the worst surprises being bandied about right now is that Triple H will return from his monthlong absence to avenge the beating Roman Reigns gave him at TLC. The very plausible theory is that Hunter is Mr. McMahons ace up the sleeve, the insurance policy against Reigns leaving the Royal Rumble with the WWE World Heavyweight Championship in hand. Triple H has been referenced in his absence, but youd think he would have returned by now unless hes laying low until a Rumble return. Triple H coming back to thwart Roman and to leave with the world title makes a ton of sense from a storyline perspective, and it would have the benefit of giving Helmsley another title reign. Even if Triple H hypothetically didnt win, his mission would be accomplished if he prevents Reigns from winning.
