During an interview on the ’81’ podcast, Old School WWF Legend Bret Hart claimed that back in 1997, when all of them were working for the World Wrestling Federation at the same time, he witnessed first hand that Hunter Hearst Helmsley (Triple H) hated Rocky Maivia (The Rock) and tried to ruin the young up-and-coming talent.

Here’s what The Hitman had to say:

“When I did the big interview about America, the next week’s taping, I wrestled The Rock and they wanted me to beat him.

Triple H did.

He wanted me to beat Dwayne and win the Intercontinental Title.

I refused, ‘What do I need the Intercontinental title for?’.

I remember Triple H was sick about it because he had a thing for Dwayne and wanted to ruin him.

He hated him.”

The Rock and Triple H eventually became main eventers 2 years later in 1999 and got into a major on-screen rivalry that headlined several pay-per-views between September 1999 and August 2002.
