MVP Says He Didn't Call Triple H Racist, But Says Hulk Hogan Is
MVP wants to set the record straight on comments made about Triple H's booking
MVP isn’t all too pleased with the notion that he called Triple H racist, refuting those claims and saying that his words were taken and twisted. During a virtual signing with K&S WrestleFest, MVP sought to set the record straight and clarify the comments he made to an Instagram comment regarding how Triple H books black talent in WWE.
"It made the rounds that 'MVP said Triple H was racist.' I never said that word. I never said that. You show me the quote or the caption where I said that. Somebody made a comment on my social media about how he books black talent. I just said, 'Ah, you see it.' I never said he is racist. I never said that. That was never anything I said. I want to make that very clear. If you're watching, you got that sound byte here first. I'll go more into it on my podcast. I didn't say that. Now, my opinion on how he books talent of color, that's a different conversation, but I never said the man was racist.”
Whilst MVP clarified that he didn’t call Triple H racist, he wanted to make sure fans knew of someone who he does believe is racist - Hulk Hogan.
“Hulk Hogan is racist. He said it himself, 'I'm a little bit racist.' He said that. As far as Triple H, I don't know that he is. I don't know what his motivations are, but I never said he was racist."
Hulk Hogan recently compared himself to Chris Benoit when talking about the reception he receives from WWE fabs.
