Former WWE ring announcer Justin Roberts has been opening up as of late about his time in WWE mentioning a few names positively and negatively. One of the negative names mentioned is WWE C.O.O. Triple H. Roberts accused Triple H of holding WWE talent back and using his position to do so.
In a recent interview with the Two Man Power Trip Of Wrestling podcast, Roberts took listeners back to Triple H’s buildup to the WrestleMania 27 clash with The Undertaker. Roberts mentioned how HHH’s comments put down everybody on the roster who was not The Game or The Undertaker.
Roberts: “There are a couple of things that come to mind that I write about in the book. When he was going to be wrestling The Undertaker at WrestleMania he basically said he went into the locker room and he looked around and there was nobody for him and nobody at his level besides The Undertaker. So here is a guy in charge of building talent saying that no talent is up to his level and that is why he got to fight the Undertaker at WrestleMania again.”
The former WWE ring announcer also brought up a segment which he stated shows how Triple H has to put everybody down in order to make himself look good.
“At the same time when they did that story-line with the roster walking out on the company and he basically came in the ring and said how everybody is outside but he could have a better match with a broomstick than most of the guys anyway. He’s always doing whatever it takes to make himself look like Superman and to put everybody else down.”
Roberts continued by stating: “He’s probably the most insecure person I’ve ever met, constantly needs people around him telling him how great his ideas are and laughing at his jokes and he buries talent.”
All this and more is talked about in Justin Roberts’s book Best Seat In The House: Your Backstage Pass Through My WWE Journey.
