Bobby Fish: I Can’t See Anything That Triple H Has A Hand In Not Being Successful
Bobby FIsh remains a big fan of Triple H.
In NXT, Fish was part of the Undisputed ERA alongside Adam Cole, Kyle O’Reilly, and Roderick Strong during the Black & Gold era. Undisputed ERA was arguably the most successful group in NXT history and Fish was two-time NXT Tag Team Champion during his time on the brand.
Fish was released by WWE in August 2021 amid NXT putting a focus on younger talent and athletes over independent wrestlers, rebranding as NXT 2.0 in September.
Speaking to Rewind, Recap, Relive, Fish commented on Triple H assuming creative duties in WWE with Vince McMahon retiring.
“Hunter is brilliant. The time I spent learning under him, brilliant is the only description I can attribute to that man when it comes to pro wrestling. I’m happy to see things seem to be working out there in a more harmonious way. When I left, there was a lot of transition. It’s never fun to see people that you’ve worked with, and that you’re friends with, and you care about their success or their day-to-day, even office people and medical staff. You make friends with these people over the years and you want to see them in a good work environment and enjoying themselves. We certainly all were, at that time, when we were there and Hunter was the head coach or quarterback or whatever you want to call it. Those things changed, things got a bit wonky. I left after my release, so I can’t speak firsthand, but to know that there is a chance now with Hunter back doing his thing, that things could return or maybe become something entirely new or different, but under him. I can’t see anything in the wrestling business that he has a hand in that’s not going to be successful. I’m obviously biased and partial to the man, but I would go to war for him seven days a week,” he said.
Fish signed with AEW after his NXT release and reunited with Adam Cole and Kyle O’Reilly, who left WWE after their contracts expired.
