Triple H Possibly Taking Time Off?
According to Dave Meltzer, Triple H is having problems with one of his quadriceps and could be looking to take some time off after Wrestlemania. However, since Undertaker and Shawn Michaels are also expected to be taking time off, HHH's break could end up being delayed.
Update on a Possible Triple H Heel Turn
There is talk again within WWE about turning Triple H heel later this year. This was talked about last year but put on hold because of the most recent DX reunion.
Reason Why Triple H and Sheamus Were Not on Raw
According to Dave Meltzer, there are reports going around that Sheamus suffered a concussion at Sunday night's Elimination Chamber PPV and was not at RAW last night in Indianapolis as a result. It appears that the original main event for RAW was to be John Cena vs. Sheamus where the winner would get the title shot at Wrestlemania. Triple H was also kept off the show since he is expected to feud with Sheamus leading into Wrestlemania.
Triple H Talks About WWE Action Figures
The Houston Chronicle got some comments from Triple H today from his appearance at the launch of Mattel's new WWE action figures. About having a figure made of himself he said:
“It's a huge moment for any of the guys. We all played with action figures when we were growing up. So to get yourself to the point where you're immortalized with an action figure is a pretty cool thing. It's like having a statue of yourself. It's a feeling of, wow, I've really made it. To be included as a figure that the company thinks people will buy, it's huge.”

Big WWE Plans For the Next 3 Months
Although plans can change very quickly in WWE, Bryan Alvarez is reporting that the idea over the weekend was that Triple H is the favorite to win the Royal Rumble and receive a title match against Sheamus at Wrestlemania.
His DX partner Shawn Michaels' is expected to face Batista at the Elimination Chamber ppv to determine who will battle the Undertaker at Wrestlemania.
Then the big interbrand match at Wrestlemania would pit John Cena against Batista.
Dropped Creative Plan For The Royal Rumble
According to Bryan Alvarez, was a creative idea run that Shawn Michaels and Triple H would tie in the Rumble match. This would allow Michaels to choose Undertaker and Hunter to choose Sheamus as their respective Wrestlemania opponents. The idea was seemingly dropped after creative came up with a new direction.
