400 x what 15 dollars is $6,000. I don't know how often they run full sail but I'm sure that this amount covers costs for the building, or perhaps they pay the wrestlers that perform on the show a bonus based on that.

After the Triple feud Punk went on to hold the WWE title for 400 some days.
Goldberg BEAT Trips for the Title.
RVD beat John Cena for the title post-Triple H matches.
Jericho had a stellar career following his matches with Triple H.
Booker T had a stellar career following his matches with Triple H, as well.

"He didn't kill them dead" He didn't kill them at all. He worked matches with them. In all of those examples Triple H was one of the top guys in the WWF, hell after Shawn, Bret, Stone Cold and Rock all left he was THE biggest name (aside from Undertaker & Kane) that was still left over from the Monday Night Wars, OF COURSE he was going to be used on top. Plus, if you look past your disdain for Triple H you'd have to admit he's a good talent. He worked with these guys, he beat them sometimes, they beat him other times.

I think I figured this out. The only name on there that didn't have a good career post-Triple H feud was Scott Steiner. Is Scott Steiner trolling the webs trying to tell people that Tips buried him?

Scotty, if you are out there face facts. You sucked. You were a good performer in the early 90's. You gassed yourself up way to big and became practically immobile. You were an unprofessional d-bag who made friends with the right people so you were on top at WCW even though you couldn't work a lick anymore. Then you went to the WWE and you got swallowed up by a FAR superior talent roster since you no longer had any stroke. Get over it.

Not necessarily. Ole Anderson was never "the" guy, but he was a top booker for a number of years.
Bill Watts main evented against Bruno Sammartino, but he was never Bruno Sammartino. But he did go on to be one of the greatest promoters/bookers of all time.
Pat Patterson, Sandy Scott, Dutch Mantell, Buck Robley those guys were never as big as Bob Backlund, Wahoo McDaniel, Stan Hansen or Bruiser Brody but they were the ones who knew the business and ran several promotions.
In fact the only "top" guy who ever booked on a regular basis to my knowledge was Dusty Rhodes. The "second string" players tend to be the ones who go on to run the creative aspects of the show and then add to that the fact that Vince was going to pass along WWE to his children anyway and Triple H and Steph got married, of course he is going to be in the spot that he's in.

Oh...I get it. So Triple H, the son in law of Vince McMahon, husband of the daughter of Vince McMahon, the future leader of the WWE wanted to bury RVD, Booker T and CM Punk. He tried to. But he wasn't able to because his other employees put them over?
Look, I get it man. Triple H is a GREAT heel. Hate him. BOO him. that's what he wants, he's really good at getting you and the rest of the IWC and WWE fans to hate him. But don't pretend to hate him in a "smart" way, don't pretend that you hate him because he "buried" anyone, because all of the guys he "buried" were main eventers. They weren't buried.
He's the future owner of the company, if he WANTED to bury someone, they'd be buried. Simple.

Exactly.
If I were a young WWE wrestler I would KILL to have Triple H "bury" me.
First, it means I'm in a major program.
Second, it means I'm making a good payday.
Third, if you look at the track record of guys Trips has buried, it means that I'll be world champion within a year.

I agree with your sentiment. I actually think that because of that issue WWE would be stupid to split the Shield. Reigns doesn't have a lot of charisma (though you can definitely see it coming to the surface) Rollins has charisma but is not a good promo, and Ambrose has the whole package but is going to have to work a little harder to be a main event guy in modern WWE because of the fact that he doesn't look like Reigns. (Not a knock on his physique, just the truth that that he doesn't stand out the same way that Roman does)
The three of them together compliment each other's strengths so well, AND the gimmick still seems fresh to the point that it would be dumb to split them up.

There was a discussion on another topic about the supposed "burials"
Pretty much it's been determined that most people apparently don't understand the difference between "beaten" and "buried"

For example Triple H "buried" Goldberg because he pinned him at Elimination Chamber (after hitting him in the head with a sledgehammer) of course Goldberg went on to WIN the WWE Title the following month, so not much of a burial.

In fact most of the guys who were "buried" by Triple H (a list that I was informed included RVD, Booker T, Goldberg, & CM Punk) all went on to become world champion. So if Triple H is a guy who actively tries to "bury" talent he does a piss poor job of it.

This is the problem. If someone doesn't like someone, GREAT that's part of wrestling 50% of the wrestlers SHOULD be hated. But when you have the so called "Smart" fans throwing around lies like so n so was buried....it gets all screwy. There is no logic to it.
Triple H buried CM Punk right into the longest reign as world champion in 25 years.
Triple H buried Goldberg by HITTING HIM IN THE HEAD WITH A SLEDGEHAMMER to screw him (like a heel) out of the title, one month before Goldber won the title.
I think it's GREAT that people hate Triple H. He has always been a better more effective heel than face, IMO. But it just sucks when the fans hate him and think they hate him because they're "smart"

Really? The "Triple H has never been a draw" line seems interesting to me.
How do you know this? Do you have any source? Or are you just giving an opinion?
