On the latest episode of Wrestling With Freddie, former WWE writer Freddie Prinze Jr. shared his take on Triple H 's promotion to head of creative and VP of Talent relations in WWE. Freddie also reflected on interactions between Triple H and former WWE Superstar CM Punk, as well as so much more. Check out the highlights below.
On an interaction between Triple H and CM Punk:
“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!”
On Triple H intentionally botching promos with Punk:
“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.”
On the possibility of Triple H using his new role to "stick it to" CM Punk:
“This could be a huge chance for Hunter to stick it to him. I promise you, dude, Triple H is ‘Petty Betty.'”
