Some of Hunter's comments at the MDM Press Conference
As Triple H pointed out on McMahon, "Either he's a genius or he's crazy." Then he jokingly said "he's absolutely crazy," but noted that this was just a smart strategy employed by one of the most successful entertainment machines in the world.
At the start of the press conference, a team of security came out and unloaded one million dollars in cash. They placed this in a clear plastic podium, as was done at Raw the night before. As Triple H looked down to the encased greenbacks under his nose, he said, "There's a million reasons right here why everybody should be watching RAW."
When asked if McMahon had any help coming up with this concept, Triple H playfully stated, "Vince is very capable of coming up with crazy ideas on his own."

Nature of The Game
Triple H on Randy Orton's injury:
“Obviously, it’s a bad break for Orton. It’s a physical business. We don’t go out there to play checkers,” Randy and I knew going into that match that we wouldn’t be the same coming out. It’s part of the game and what we do for a living. When something bad happens out there in that ring you take advantage of it. Orton would’ve done the same thing to me if the roles would’ve been reversed. I have no sympathy or remorse."
“I think there’s some poetic justice,” The Game added. “Randy Orton has bragged about putting Superstars on the shelf. That stuff can come back to bite you. He’ll have two months to sit at home and think about it.”
“I don’t think that anybody who’s seen me compete over the last 10 years will think that I would have any remorse. I’ll fight tooth and nail,” the 12-time World Champion declared. “I’ve fought with torn quads and other injuries. This is what you do in this business. It’s your passion. To win championships is what we keep fighting for. I’ll stop at nothing to win or retain the WWE Championship.”

WWE Ratings Still Lead The Pack
There has been some discussion around Monday Night RAW’s Memorial Day rating. Let’s put all this into perspective. First, over the past 13 weeks (3/3/08-5/26/08) Raw has averaged more weekly viewers than during the first 13 weeks following the show’s return to the USA Network in October 2005.
Even with a lower than usual rating, on Memorial Day, RAW was the #1 regularly scheduled cable program in primetime among households. RAW also was the #1 program on all primetime television among Persons 12-17 and the #2 television program among Males 12-17, Males 12-34, Males 18-34 and Persons 12-34...More?
