AEW’s MVP, who has never been shy about expressing his dislike of WWE CCO Triple H, has criticized him and stated that he was the reason behind his decision to leave WWE.

MVP, who has previously ridiculed Triple H’s ability to get his opponents over, as well as accused him of cutting a racist promo on Booker T, stated on his “Marking Out with MVP & Dwayne Swayze” that he chose to quit WWE because of the presence of Triple H

“I made up my mind that I don’t want to be here anymore. And if Triple H is in charge, then I definitely don’t want to be here because I don’t like Triple H. I don’t respect Triple H. I think he’s a coward and a liar,” said the AEW star.

He explained that there were several instances in which “The Game” was not truthful with him or Bobby Lashley, which angered him. He believes that even people who dislike each other in pro wrestling can make things work if they are willing to do so, which he feels Triple H was unwilling to do.

“And there have been many situations where he was dealing with Bobby, where he didn’t have the ba**s to tell Bobby the truth, creatively what he wanted to do. There are multiple times that I tried to talk to him, and he would always [say], ‘I’ll get with you in a little bit.’ Or the few times that I got a chance to get him in his office alone, he would call somebody to come in. He didn’t want to deal with it. I don’t respect that. I’m professional. Tell me how you feel. We’re doing business. Based on it, you got to like me. There’s lots of people throughout my career that I’ve worked with, that I don’t like. But we’re making money, we’re doing business.”

MVP said that when he realized that Triple H was the one who would be in charge, he convinced Lashley to leave the promotion, as he didn’t see a future for either of them in the promotion. 

Undisputed WWE Champion Cody Rhodes has addressed The Rock’s demand for his soul and admitted that he’s unsure whether “The Final Boss” still wants it.

The Rock wanted to take Rhodes’ soul, hinting that he wanted “The American Nightmare” to wrestle for him in early 2025, though his motives were never fully explained. Rhodes, in an interview with “ESPN,” was shown a Topps card that he had signed with the inscription, “He wanted my soul?!”, which led him to wonder whether the Hollywood actor still feels the same way. The card was bought by the New York Knicks’ Karl-Anthony Towns, which led Rhodes to remark that he had received a “special card.”

“Well, it’s a very rare card he [Towns] got. This is during the period that ‘The Final Boss,’ The Rock, was asking on television for my soul. I don’t know if it’s still on the line. He appears when he appears,” said Rhodes. “But that right there is a very special card, and I’m glad he got it.”

Rhodes declined The Rock’s offer to take his soul and told him to “F himself,” which ultimately led to him being attacked by John Cena, The Rock, and rapper Travis Scott. Many fans and critics panned the “soul” segment, as well as Cena’s heel turn and Scott’s appearance. 

That criticism would have led most people to abandon the storyline entirely, but The Rock, a few weeks after WrestleMania 41, said that he could revisit it in the future and even teased that other WWE stars were eager to have their souls taken by him. There were also hints that The Rock wanted Rhodes to turn heel, but WWE sources dismissed them. 

Veteran WWE star Sheamus is closing in on a return to the ring and has posted photos of himself training at the WWE Performance Center. 

The former WWE Champion has been out of action due to a shoulder injury and has yet to wrestle this year. However, it seems that he’s ready to get back in the ring, as he posted a series of images of himself training, showing off his new physique as well as the welts on his back from running the ropes.

Sheamus last wrestled in WWE last November, when he teamed with his old rival John Cena, and WWE Hall of Famer Rey Mysterio, to face the trio of JD McDonagh, Dominik Mysterio, and Finn Balor of the Judgment Day. He was then set to continue in the John Cena Last Time is Now tournament, but was forced to pull out due to the injury. The Irish star then reportedly underwent surgery on his shoulder in Birmingham, Alabama, and has yet to return to the ring. 

The WWE wrestler had previously been sidelined with a shoulder injury that kept him out of action for over 200 days before he eventually returned to the WWE ring in 2024.

One of the most legendary managers in WWE history is the “Mouth of the South” Jimmy Hart. Most recently, Hart was seen alongside Hulk Hogan during the latter’s final appearance in WWE before his death, but Hart managed a wide variety of talent across many promotions throughout his time in the professional wrestling business.

Hart sat down with Cody Rhodes on “What Do You Want to Talk About?” to chat about his career, and he explained a lot, including the many jackets he’d wear down to the ring. Hart credited all the talent he had to manage, because he wanted to make them feel unique.

“I realized this… I had 23 different people that I managed up in New York during that length of time,” Hart explained. “Twenty-three different ones. Here’s why every [jacket] was so important. If I was with Earthquake and Typhoon, I didn’t want to wear a honky-tonk jacket out while they were doing that. I realized that I gotta make a jacket for everybody I’ve got to manage. Make them feel special, feel important. Because, I would have never got this Hall of Fame ring here if it wasn’t for all the guys I was able to go to the ring with. They were the Cadillac, I was the hood ornament on the Cadillac. That was it. They were so important to me. Everybody.”

In addition to Hogan and the Natural Disasters, Hart also managed The Honky Tonk Man, explaining his “honky-tonk jacket,” the Funk family, Kevin Sullivan, Lex Luger, The Giant (now better known as the Big Show) and many, many more. He was inducted into the Hall of Fame in 2005.
