I think he returned earlier than he wanted too for the company. HHH is a good friend and could have got HBK to make the early move. They brought him back in the perfect spot as well. Didn't expect it. I don't think he will win the title soon.. He did want a limited ring time but with Cena out this could push him back into the main event spot. The old HBK beard was in action. Orton sold that superkick PERFECT too.
