Ex-WWE employee criticizes Triple H's booking on the main roster
Wrestling legend Vince Russo recently suggested that Triple H had not introduced a game-changing character on WWE's main roster.
Speaking on Sportskeeda Wrestling's The Wrestling Outlaws, the former head writer for the Stamford-based promotion claimed that The King of Kings had not been able to create a compelling complex character on RAW or SmackDown. The veteran noted that he did not see Aleister Black back in the day on NXT, and criticized the 55-year-old's bookings on the main roster so far.
"All I'll say is this. On the big stage, I've not seen Triple H deliver a character like that. On the big stage, I haven't [seen it]. I did not see Aleister Black in NXT. I did not see him. I'm talking about the big stage, I have not seen Triple H deliver a complicated character. I haven't seen it," Vince Russo said. [From 08:40 - 9:06]
