That man again.
Whether you're a fan of the guy or not, there's no getting away from the fact that Paul Levesque has had a huge part to play in the unbelievable success WWE are currently experiencing.
He's evidently helped create a more positive environment backstage and given his audience precisely what they want more often than not. Every now and then, though, Papa H just can't help himself.
It doesn't matter that he's no longer able to thrown down in-between the ropes, the former World Champion still finds a way to squeeze himself into the spotlight and earn a few cheap pops in the process.
Take WWE's huge Netflix debut earlier this year.
After once again voicing another promo package patting himself and the company on the back, Trips appeared in the middle of the Monday Night Raw ring and began delivering a speech he undoubtedly felt was as epic as the stage he was standing on.
It wasn't.
It was actually hilarious for all the wrong reasons. Trips took the time to tell the 17,000 in attendance to show the globe who they were... while they were completely blacked out and the spotlight was firmly on him. Awkward.
That will sadly be the last-ever monotonous, accidentally comical rah-rah speech we hear from The Game, too, as he was suddenly blown up in an extravagant pyro explosion shortly after.
