Ryback Recalls Telling Triple H He’s A Disappointment

Ryback made his debut in WWE back in 2012, where he had a memorable run in the company. Unfortunately, that is all a thing of the past after he was eventually released by the company in 2016. That said, now it appears Ryback recalled the time he called Triple H a disappointment.

Long after his WWE release, Ryback was clearly bitter as he continuously attacked Vince McMahon, Triple H and WWE in general for a wide variety of reasons over the years.

While speaking on K100, Ryback talked about his relationship with Triple H. Ryback detailed how things were between them before it all changed. Ryback then recalled telling Triple H that he is a disappointment.

I’ve wanted to like Hunter a lot, and I think early on a lot of it was very good,” Ryback said. “He was the one who came up with doing the double stack for the Shell Shock. He used to come up and we used to have conversations, and I don’t know what changed on any of that. It’s all a game on how things work. I can tell you, from Hunter’s perspective, I think we have a lot in common and I loved him growing up.

We had meetings in Stamford. He helped me a lot early on, brilliant mind with everything,” Ryback explained. “But toward the end, we had some heated conversations with things. I’d go through him before I’d go to Vince. I told him, ‘You’re the biggest disappointment in my wrestling carer. I grew up loving you and you’re just a f****** disappointment.’ He put his head down and said, ‘Please don’t say that.’ But that’s how I felt.”

Ryback also claimed that WWE told him to stop talking about Vince McMahon during his trademark dispute over his name. We’ll have to wait and see what will become of Ryback in the end.
