3 WWE Superstars Triple H expected to fail and 3 he tipped to succeed

#4 Triple H expected Mark Jindrak to fail

Triple H formed the Evolution faction with Batista, Randy Orton, and Ric Flair in 2003, but there was a brief time where it looked as though a different WWE Superstar could join the group instead of Batista.

Speaking on WWE Network series ‘Ruthless Aggression’, Triple H recalled that Batista tore his triceps in March 2003, ruling him out of action for the next seven months.

Due to the severity of the injury, Vince McMahon wanted to try out Mark Jindrak as a member of the group, meaning Batista could potentially lose his spot in Evolution on a permanent basis.

Triple H did not think Jindrak fit as part of the faction and he made it clear to McMahon that he expected the former WCW star to fail in the role.

“So Jindrak shows up [to an Evolution promo shoot] and says, ‘I've got my black suit,’ and I'm like, ‘Why'd they tell him to bring a black suit? I don't want him in the group. Ric and I have already decided that he doesn't fit and we don't want him in the group.’”

In the end, Jindrak did not get added to Evolution and Triple H was able to welcome Batista back into the group when he had recovered from his injury.

Triple H also told a story about refusing to share a car ever again with Jindrak after he acted in an immature way during a two-hour car journey.
