Found this on SEScoops.
Source: f4wonline.com
One reason Triple H was moved to SmackDown is due to a scheduling matter. The schedule on Smackdown is actually a lot more convenient for him, especially considering that wife Stephanie McMahon-Levesque is due to give birth in about a month and will be taking the babies on the road upon her return to work.
The regular Raw show schedule runs from Friday to Monday, so he is always on his own on the road because Stephanie doesn't attend house shows. However, Stephanie always attends the weekly Tuesday SmackDown tapings, whereas Triple H is at home or on a plane going home. When he was on Raw, they pretty much only saw each other on Monday, the latter part of Wednesday, entire Thursdays, and the early part of Friday. Now that he's on SmackDown, he can see Stephanie and the kids Monday through at least Friday.
The weekly SmackDown schedule doesn't start until Saturday night, so that gives them part of another day to be together some weeks. Instead of seeing his family for parts of three or four days a week, he should usually be able to see them as many as six days a week.
The scheduling issue wasn't the only reason for the move because the SmackDown brand was in dire need of a huge new star to say the least. Also, Triple H's move to SmackDown should give the show a ratings boost when it moves to MyNetworkTV this fall.

I looking forward to him being on smackdown. It just makes smackdown seem more fresh seeing him there.

I know WWE wants Triple H on Smackdown because they want really high ratings when Smackdown makes it's debut on the new channel in the fall....but I think it's a bad move for the product.
I don't think Batista is a strong enough Champion to carry RAW.
Obviously at Night Of Champions Triple H is retaining against Cena and Batista is beating Edge and taking the WHC to RAW and the WWE title will be on Smackdown.
I think Cena being drafted to Smackdown and chasing Edge for the World Title would have been more interesting and better for the product.

So he is staying. I hope he feuds with Edge, since that would be something new.

so basically he just did it because it suited his family needs. So much for the HHH ego shrinking theory.

What I am not happy about is that Edge just got the Title back and now Hunter comes to SD, he has to drop it already to Batista?  Gosh, when WILL Edge EVER get a long title reign. |

I just want to see Hunter's ego in meltdown mode when he proves not to be a ratings draw. Been there, done that. How do you suppose an old feud would be used to reinvigorate a stale product? |

Who says Cena doesn't beat HHH and Edge retains? It can easily happen, and HHH can chase Edge.

Good for him, but he is so lucky though, not everyone one can do that.

The spinner belt will stay on RAW with Cena. I hope Triple H gets a girl again tbh. Agreed. |
