Road Dogg and Billy Gunn claimed to hate him too.

Didn't stop them from accepting money and kissing his ass on his documentary.

Dakota Kai would've thrived. She was doing great when HHH had full NXT control.

With Triple H leading the way in WWE creative, Freddie Prinze Jr. believes “The Game” may get cerebral with a former WWE star. Prinze worked with WWE from 2008-2009 as a writer, and it was then that he saw Triple H interact on-air with current AEW World Champion, CM Punk. On his latest episode of the “Wrestling With Freddie” podcast, Prinze Jr. covered Vince McMahon’s exit from WWE and the regime of Triple H, Stephanie McMahon, and Nick Khan grabbing full hold of the company’s steering wheel.


“He created the Straight Edge Society: no drugs, no alcohol, technically no women if you’re super straight edge. Hunter’s looking him dead in the face, just gassed to the gills, and you know, drinks wine with Vince on the plane, and he just no-sells Punk’s whole promo and goes, ‘I don’t see what the big deal is. I don’t do drugs, I don’t drink,’ and he just looks him dead in the face like, ‘Go ahead and try to call me a liar. I’ll fire you so quick,’ and Punk couldn’t do anything!”

Punk was originally on “SmackDown” during his run as the straight edge cult leader but found new life and freedom when he eventually went over to the “Raw” brand.


“So that’s why when Punk had that promo on live ‘Raw’ instead of taped ‘SmackDown’ where [Hunter] had no control — like, Hunter would blow live promos on a ‘SmackDown’ and to the live house audience and would go, ‘Don’t worry, we’ll edit it,’ and he would just keep going cause he was so gangster with it. But on ‘Raw,’ Punk got a chance to kind of do his own thing, and he let his feelings known.”

Punk did take some shots at Triple H in his memorable pipe-bomb promo as he disparaged him and former Head of Talent Relations, John Laurinaitis, calling Hunter Vince’s “doofus son-in-law.” With Triple H now in complete control of the on-air product, Prinze Jr. feels that Triple H will make the most of any added perks to his new role.

“This could be a huge chance for Hunter to stick it to him,” Prince said to Dye. “I promise you, dude, Triple H is ‘petty Betty.'”

Triple H’s first day on the job was the “go-home” episode of “WWE Raw” before SummerSlam, and the program saw a noticeable boost in the ratings.

I have never heard the phrase Petty Betty

Wine's not a drug.

It's juice for pussies.

WON: In NXT, the belief was that the product will revert back somewhat to Levesque’s previous vision of it. The belief was that while they will continue to heavily recruit top tier athletes, a process Levesque has been a key player in over the past year, that they would be more open to use more experienced wrestling talent as well, and that going forward the door would be more open to better wrestlers who weren’t as big or as good looking as McMahon wanted on the roster.

I'll be surprised if there's any real change to be honest, nor is it even needed.

 

[Comrade Khan]

I mean I think you're obviously going to be wrong here Dale, won't be right away but they already were looking at indie ppl in Nashville too apparently.

Before I reply, I wanna know by what you mean “nor is it needed.” Because it seems to me you’re saying that talent who actually knows how to wrestle, isn’t needed. But I wanna clarify first.

 

[Comrade Khan]

does he even watch 2.0 on a regular basis?

I think he does, but not live since he’s across the pond. It’s why he’s never really in threads.

I don't see a point in keeping good wrestlers in NXT going forward myself if the main roster isn't a death sentence so I'm more than okay with it it being used to develop people that haven't wrestled elsewhere

 

[Chris]

Like all the "Triple H NXT" should have been main roster at the time and now that seems to be viable so I'd be shocked if NXT went anywhere near back to that, they just might not be as rainbow

HHH kept guys too long in NXT agreed, but I don't think that should be no good wrestlers in NXT ever personally and I certainly think it would be foolish to keep the no indie guys mantra vince had, since, yknow, almost all the top guys in WWE aside from brock and roman are indy guys afaik
