During an interview on The Laboratory podcast, Bobby Lashley was asked about working under Vince McMahon and Triple H, and who he preferred as his boss in WWE.
Here’s what the former WWE Champion said:
“I had a connection with Vince. Vince understood me. Vince was big on the show. He looked at people that were stars. He saw that in me. There were a lot of little nuggets that Vince would give me throughout my career and tell me different things.
Vince looked at me like, ‘I can tell Bobby works his a$$ off. I can send him anywhere around the country to represent the brand.’ He looked at me like a star. I like Vince.
I haven’t really had too much of a connection with Hunter. Hunter has his guys. I’ve tried to, but we haven’t really worked enough together to get to know each other.”
Lashley got heat for his comments on social media. The All Mighty said the following about it on The Bo and Them Show:
“I said something where I had more of a relationship with Vince than Triple H, and everybody was going after me. Vince did this and Triple H did this. It was a very simple, innocent comment.
When Vince was here, I had more conversations with him. I don’t know what anybody does in their personal life. And where I work, that’s what I concentrate on. And when we were there, Vince was always trying to pull a different side of me. So there were different things I did at that time when I was in the wrestling business when Vince was in charge.
What Vince told me was I want to see different layers of you. He was like, ‘man, there’s so much more to you, so I want to make you feel uncomfortable on TV so that we can get those different layers’. So I had a different relationship with Vince.
When Triple H came on, we didn’t really get a chance to sit down. He didn’t get a chance to get to know me.”
