Gerweck Radio recently interviewed former WWE and TNA star Paul London. You can hear the full interview at this link. Here are a few highlights:
Chris Benoit's dark side:
"Chris was dark, he was extremely dark. We used to have a joke that Chris was tri-polar, because it was a step up from bi-polarity. He would flip sometimes. I think a combination of Chris' background of with steroids, mixed with the partying, is a recipe for disaster. One of them is a recipe for disaster. Its literally taking Drano and pouring it on your hard drive. See what that does for your computer."

Triple H being jealous of Rob Van Dam:
"That is another reason I'm pretty sure I won't be returning there any time soon. Hunter was pretty obviously jealous of certain individuals. I'm not saying he was jealous of me. I could tell he was envious of (Rob) Van Dam. He was extremely envious of Rob's success. He was jealous of Van Dam's personality. He was jealous that people gravitated towards Rob, because people liked being around Rob because he was very positive. The most glaring was the work rate. Hunter has had the same matches his whole career. If the guy is so damn tough, why does he need a sledgehammer. How do you justify this guying be a bad ass if he always has a weapon. Hunter is like that nerd that throws out a joke expecting the room to start laughing and ends up laughing at his own joke."

Anyone buying what London is saying? I personally can see how Trips would be jelaous of others. He's well known to have an ego and think himself bigger than he is. Just look at his DVD. Granted most WWE DVD bios tend to paint up the subject but they go the extra mile with Hunter.

Well, if HHH was ever jealous of RVD for his work rate, I'm sure he had a blast watching TNA before Van Dam left.

I've always gotten the vibe that Hunter wasn't exactly a cool cat in his every day life. Not sure I buy that RVD is this suave dude Paul London is painting him as either though. He probably just blew down with RVD a lot. Also funny he pointed out HHH having the same match his entire career when RVD is much more guilty of doing the same damn shit in every match.

Well of course HHH's ego is massive, that is known for a decade now.

Though, London (addmited weed user) talking nicely about BVD (also one) of all people? Sure dude. I don't have anything against weed, but this is too obvious not to understand lol.

I'm sure there's professional jealousy among a lot of the wrestlers (especially the top guys) to some degree or another. Especially since there's always that fear that so and so might be a threat to your spot. Russo and Ferrera talked in an interview about how they sometimes even sensed there was a bit of jealousy between Austin and Rock (mainly from Austin's side since he was already a made guy but Rock's popularity was really starting to take off and equal and match his.)

I always got the feeling that HHH never liked RVD. He seems to have criticized him in interviews before more than he has with any other wrestler. He even said around 2003/2004-ish that RVD didn't have "It" (despite the fact that he was so immensely popular that he was getting cheers even against top guys like The Rock and Kurt Angle in 2001, just a couple of months after entering the company.) I also didn't sense a whole lot of joy in RVD's face when he looked in HHH's direction at the Wrestlemania 23 Hall of Fame.

Jericho is another guy that HHH has always been jealous of, especially when Jericho debuted into the company to much fanfare right when HHH was finally starting to get his push to the main event. Jericho even admitted in an interview earlier this year that they used to have issues with each other.

Always had a strange vibe around HHH as well. I could definitely see this though. Even what London said about Benoit I can believe. I'm sure London wouldn't just lie about that, it's just against the rules of the internet.

Wait, there are rules of the internet? Damn, The Hoff thought everyone ran wild throughout the internet, raping and pillaging, doing as they please.

I can believe that he could have some issues with certain guys, RVD could be possibly one of them. Doesn't really bother me though, if he puts his ego aside to help the company, then that's fine by me. If he can't, well, we'll see what happens then.

Trips won't ever realistically put aside his ego. Can ya blame the guy though? C'monnn. Look at him. He's got the boss' daughter, it's a given he's going to take over the company when Vinnie Mac steps down. Trips knows what's best for business.

Nope, rule #1 of the internet. 1. You can't lie.

Wouldn't doubt Triple H is a jealous fuck, but, I don't know if he would be jealous of RVD....There's really nothing there to be jealous of, imo. Jericho, hell, yeah, I can see why H would be jealous of him. He is fucking way above Triple H. Fuck Triple H. Hope his ego crushes him some day.
