"He's a straight-up racist" - Former WWE champion makes a major claim about Triple H
A popular former champion recently made a major claim about WWE Chief Content Officer Triple H. The star also revealed the alleged reason for not being called in for a major show. It is none other than former Intercontinental Champion Ahmed Johnson.
Ahmed Johnson was a popular name in the professional wrestling world in the early 90s. The star was a part of WWE (then WWF) from 1995 to 1998, during which he wrestled against some of the biggest names, including The Rock, Yokozuna, and Triple H (FKA Hunter Hearst Helmsley).
During a recent interview with Ten Count Media, host Steve Fall highlighted that the Triple H-led creative team has been bringing back some legendary names, including Jesse Ventura, for Saturday Night's Main Event, and wondered why Ahmed Johnson hasn't made an appearance at the event.
The former Intercontinental Champion called The Game a "racist pirate," alleging that the WWE CCO was the reason why he hasn't been called in for an appearance at SNME.
Johnson added that he believed The King of Kings was jealous of him back in the day, as he was one of the ''top guys'' in the company, unlike Triple H.
"Because you have a racist pirate at the helm. [Host: Would you like to elaborate?] Well, Triple H… He’s a straight-up racist. So, like I said, he was very jealous that I came in and got this big push, and he was… he was Hunter Hearst Helmsley, man. He was just a mid-carder, and I don’t know where he gets off thinking that he was one of the top boys back then, because back then, he wasn’t. It was me, Shawn [Michaels], Stone Cold [Steve Austin], The Undertaker, and Sid. Those were the top guys back then, and Triple H just wasn’t one," he said. [16:45-17:36]
