No I think they are just rehashing old real life angles. The whole Batista thing was a different take on the "You Screwed Bret" angle, on how he stepped on people screwed people etc. Ok not exactly you screwed Bret but it talked about how arrogant he was. But remember what Shawn said, "I was told to do it. I had a job to do." Refering to ending the career of Ric...but it's also the words he used on screwing Bret. "I have a lot of blood on my hands" Refering to Bret too. Anyways, a different spin on the Bret angle without using the "Ending of the Match" as an spot which we've seen so many times in other matches.

The whole knee thing was the retake on how he "Allegidly" fake his knee injury b4 WrestleMania 13 so he wouldn't job to Bret and forfet the title. It's a different take on that.

Anyways, thats my assumption on the angle.

I think the point the writers are trying to make and I could be way off base here,is that if HBK would do something like that,how believable is his saying I'm sorry to Ric Flair at WM?
