No, a month and a half... he won it mid December (15th or later)

The difference between Austin's 6 month reign, Jericho's 3 month reign and Brock's 3 month reign is rather simple, they were built as proper heels. I mean in any of those titles defenses it seemed like the match could go either way and for the most part, the Champion probably barely squeaked by with the belt.

So, you are saying HHH just beat the living hell out of Steiner and HBK, and at no point it seems they had a chance of winning the match or coming back the next PPV and actually winning?
lol
Last I heard HHH was squeaking by too...
You thoughts of how his opponents have no chance is exactly what it is,
YOUR thoughts.

Also to compare Austin's 6 month reign is a bit difficult because for about 1-1/2 months the story was really focused on the InVasion angle, he just happened to have the belt at the time. Also if you go back and watch basically any match from that title reign Austin never went over cleanly as easily as Triple H did. I mean in theory Austin lost the title at KOTR because he tapped out to both Benoit and Jericho and he lost it to Angle at SummerSlam, but Angle was screwed. That makes for interesting TV when you know that the face has a chance of coming back and beating the heel.

Steiner left last PPV as the "screwed winner" so what's the difference?

The same applies to Jericho's title reign, well until the whole WrestleMania feud begun where he was made to look like Stephanie's bi@tch, hmm wonder who his oppenet was.

err, what's the point of this statement?

Hhaha, I can't believe you are congratulating Triple H for putting over Hogan (which BTW he got even with if you don't remember so it was a little take and give), I mean I respect Hogan and all but most of Hogan's tenure in the WWE should have been used to put over people like the Rock, Kurt Angle, Edge and Brock Lesnar like he did, I don't think Hogan beating Triple H really did much for either man career, and if Triple H can lose to Hogan, why can't he lose to someone a bit more agile like RVD or a star in the making like Booker T?

Because his title run isn't over...
Also, when H lost the WWE belt he never got it back. He won a #1 contender match with Undertaker and Brock ran.
Why should H lose to Booker T or RVD? HHH rarely ever loses a 100% fair match, and most of the time he cheats to beat his opponents... it's all a part of his character.
WWE (not HHH) is making it so anybody coming into a match with HHH is an underdog. There are only three guys who can come into a match and not be an underdog... and that's Rock, Austin, and Undertaker. They come in as his equals.
Not to say that he should never lose to anybody "below" him in a fair manner (even though he did twice in the last 6 months)... but come on, RVD and Booker T need a LOT more momentum before they come head up with HHH and expect to win.
You said it yourself, Booker has become a joke... and RVD just isn't the type of wrestler you would expect to overpower Triple H. The day Matt Hardy beats Undertaker for the WWE title is the day RVD beats HHH for the world title, period. There is nobody left in the WWE except H who can take the roll of the "dominant superstar" much like Austin and Rock used to do. (Let's pray Austin comes back to Raw)
Well, there are people that can, like Angle and Brock... but they aren't even in the same league as HHH (literarily)
