Former WWE star Maven explains why Triple H was the person he “hated wrestling the most”
In a video published to his YouTube channel, former WWE star Maven commented on wrestlers he hated working with. Maven stated the following as he wrapped up his discussion…
“I have saved the person I hated wrestling the most for last, and that person was Triple H. Now, I’ve mentioned that I might not have been Hunter’s favorite person backstage, but that’s not the reason.
The reason was that being in the ring with Hunter was like taking an ultimate exam. Success meant your career would skyrocket, and failure could lead to losing a career altogether. Yes, Triple H was a wrestler. He was one of the boys backstage, but he was also Vince [McMahon]’s son-in-law and held a lot of power in that company.
Impress him, and the sky’s the limit. Think of Randy Orton, Batista. Fail him—think of, well, me.
Aside from the backstage power, there was truly no one better in the ring than Hunter, making a match with him even more intimidating. But in saying that, Triple H was also one of my favorite opponents. Knowing what was at stake for my career if I impressed him, but also knowing that he was truly one of the best in the game.
Still though, every time I wrestled Triple H, I walked around the entire day with a pit in my stomach.”
