Triple H defeated Mark Henry on RAW in 2008, earning the right for RAW to make the first overall pick. The great luchador Rey Mysterio turned out to be that pick and a clash between himself and Triple H seemed inevitable. However, it wasn’t to be as Triple H would be drafted to SmackDown right after, taking the WWE title with him.
