WWE Star Says They Will ‘Always’ Trust Triple H

WWE

WWE star Butch of the Brawling Brutes stable has spoken about the trust he has for WWE Chief Content Officer Paul “Triple H” Levesque.

Butch debuted in 2016 and spent several years wrestling in both NXT and NXT UK under the name Pete Dunne.

He was called up to the main WWE roster on the March 11 edition of SmackDown, where he began wrestling under his current Butch gimmick.

Though the gimmick did not immediately get over due to the popularity of the Pete Dunne character, fans have since warmed up to the change due to the success of the Brawling Brutes stable.

Speaking to Ryan Satin on Out of Character, Butch spoke about his relationship with Triple H:

“It’s great, he’s a great boss to work for, no bad things at all to say. I love the time with him in NXT, NXT UK was a blast. He’s always been great to me, super approachable. I was really happy to see him back in any capacity when he came back from his troubles.

“It was great to have him around, see him in some capacity and back to work. Now, being head of creative, it’s even better because he’s there every week and he’s so approachable. I can go to him with any small thing. A lot of times, I can leave him to it, I have full trust in him.

“That whole UK tournament, the trust he put in me to do that. To that point, he probably saw me have one tryout match.

“He probably had watched footage separately, but I hadn’t met him until the press conference, which was a few weeks before the UK tournament and never worked with him until the UK tournament and he had full trust in me to have three or four matches that weekend, to be the ongoing story that weekend, and build the UK title around me. Myself, Tyler (Bate), Trent (Seven), Mark Andrews, others.

“The trust he put into me there, ever since then, my full trust is in him. I try not to bother him too much, but I know he’s there and approachable and I know I’m always going to enjoy the creative and I’m going to do the best I possibly can with it.”

Butch will team up with fellow Brawling Brute Ridge Holland to face the Usos for the Undisputed WWE Tag Team Championship at WWE Crown Jewel this Saturday, November 5.
