Former WWE Star Had Heat After Ignoring Triple H

Former WWE Star Had Heat After Ignoring Triple H WWE

Triple H may be WWE’s Chief Content Officer with a history of senior roles, in and out of the boardroom, but that didn’t mean people listened.

One such incident was recently recounted on the Keepin’ It 100 podcast with Disco Inferno recalling Diamond Dallas Page’s early run in WWE.

Disco Inferno recalled:

“He went to WWE and he was going to be wrestling with ‘Taker and he had the match written out on paper.

“Hunter told him, ‘do not show that to ‘Taker,’ [he] showed it to ‘Taker anyway.

“And the famous story is ‘Taker saw it, crumpled it up, and threw it in the garbage.

“Because like, these old school guys weren’t like wanted their match written down top to bottom, you know, and Page didn’t get that.”

Following the sale of WCW to WWE in 2001, a number of WCW stars were hired by Vince McMahon.

DDP would arrive in WWE and start a feud with The Undertaker.

Despite his tenure in WCW providing that he was an incredibly likeable performer both in the ring and on the microphone, WWE creative brought him in as the stalker of Sara, the then-wife of The Deadman.
