Paul Levesque ‘Triple H’ has been in the pro wrestling business for a long time. ‘The Game’ has a keen understanding of the profession as well as the wrestling talents. Former WWE writer Freddie Prinze Jr. recently admitted that Triple H was even right in his assessment of former WWE Champion CM Punk’s ‘hypocrisy’.

CM Punk held the WWE Championship for 434 days from 2011 to 2013. However, during this time, by John Cena largely overshadowed him. While Punk was the champion, Cena headlined more pay per views than him.

This, along with other booking related frustrations, led to the ‘Second City Saint’ walking out of the WWE in 2014.

Former WWE creative writer and actor Freddie Prinze Jr. recently spoke on his ‘Wrestling with Freddie’ podcast about the reports of Punk being difficult backstage at AEW and issues with his perceived ego within the company.

He admitted Triple H was right in his assessment of CM Punk in his WWE days. The former WWE writer also recalled that he had disagreed with the ‘King of Kings’ over this.
