MSK Hail Triple H As A 'Really Cool Dad Or Uncle'

MSK have hailed WWE NXT boss Triple H as being like 'a really cool uncle or really cool dad', highlighting how behind the tag-team The Game has been.

Wes Lee and Nash Carter have taken the NXT tag-team division by storm in 2021, and the NXT Tag Team Champions have credited that to how into them Triple H has been since their debut.

The duo have reflected on the first time they met Triple H, admitting to being star-struck by the WWE legend.

Speaking to Fightful, Carter said: "I don't get star-struck often, but..man...it was time to play the game."

Lee continued: "He's sitting down, his back is turned to us, so when the door opens, the chair spins around and he stands up and we just like [frozen]. He was like a real cool uncle or real cool dad who brought us in and was like, 'I really like you guys. You guys are awesome'.

"There's a level of compassion that he has too. What he's saying to us, we know it's coming from his heart. That man has no downtime so anytime he stops and speaks personally with you, he's not going to waste his time. He's not going to waste his efforts with side comments or unnecessary things, he's going to get to the meat and potatoes and give you everything you need. That's exactly what he did with us and it was awesome."

Carter added: "Especially one interview where he said he had and the drive and that he would run through a wall for us. Hearing that, it's like, let's go. It got me so amped."
