Former WWE star MVP has strongly criticized Chief Content Officer Paul "Triple H" Levesque. The current AEW star has been under scrutiny after he commented on the WWE chief and stated that he has zero respect for him.
The star has recently said that he has the least amount of respect for Triple H, and questioned his booking decisions since Triple H took over the WWE creative in mid-2022.
While some people thought that MVP's criticisms might indicate racial bias. But, MVP has made it clear that his issues with Triple H are personal and not about race. He stressed that his concerns are rooted in their past interactions and specific actions taken by Levesque that caused him to lose respect.
Reports suggest that MVP is now listed in the “Alumni” section of WWE, and his latest run with the company ended last month after his contract expired. Let’s take a look at the reason that MVP has opened up about why he has zero respect for WWE.
Former WWE star MVP explains why he has zero respect for Triple H
In a candid interview with BetIdeas, former WWE star and current AEW talent Montel Vontavious Porter, better known as MVP, didn't hold back his feelings to criticize WWE Chief Content Officer Paul "Triple H" Levesque. He made it clear that he has "zero respect" for him.
The reason why he has commented on Triple H stemmed from his perception of how certain talents, notably Bobby Lashley, were utilized under Triple H's leadership.
He highlighted that despite Lashley's status as a two-time WWE Champion, he was assigned to mid-card matches after Levesque acquired the key executive position in WWE. The booking choices were called into question by MVP, and he urged fans to take note of those who filled the main roster's upper echelon at that time.
MVP has commented, “Let’s just say this, Bobby Lashley was a two-time WWE Champion, and after he took over, Lashley was reduced to the midcard. Bobby Lashley is a bankable, marketable guy. And he just got reduced to midcard, whatever. What I said, specifically in response to the person on my Instagram page, was that you see it. It’s my opinion of how he chooses to book certain talents.”
He further said, “Some people say all the time that, ‘oh MVP’s just griping, MVP’s just crying’. Okay, well just watch the program. Who were the people in the top spots under his leadership? Who were given the opportunities? And I’m not talking about NXT. I’m talking about the main show. I have my opinions, based on my personal experiences.”
MVP said that he will delve deeper into these issues on his upcoming podcast, " Marking Out with MVP and Dwayne Swaezey." He added, “And at some point on my podcast, I’ll talk about it and I’ll go in-depth about what my issues are with that man.

Additionally, the AEW star cleared out that it has nothing to do with any racial discrimination or hurting anyone's sentiments. To this he stated, "And I’ll be honest with you, my issues with him have nothing to do with race. My issues have to do with him as a person and our interactions and things that he said and did that caused me to have zero respect for him.”
