Triple H accused of disrespecting John Cena by WWE veteran

Triple H has been accused of disrespecting John Cena by a WWE veteran. The promotion's Chief Content Officer has come under fire for some booking decisions lately, and he was once again called out after the events of RAW.

The Game kicked off RAW this week by introducing John Cena in front of his hometown, Boston, for the final time. As Cena addressed the fans, he was interruptedby Dominik Mysterio.

The two stars got into a back-and-forth, and throughout this entire ordeal, Triple H remained in the ring. Many fans online criticized him for staying in the ring, and former WWE writer Vince Russo has also called it out.

On his Vince Russo's The Brand, the veteran writer questioned HHH's presence in the ring at such a big and emotional moment.

"When you know that moment comes when you need to give up the ring for whoever else is in there with you. This is like at the very pinnacle of when you need to step your big nose a** out of the freaking ring," he said.

Russo noted that people should understand leaving the ring at that time would have been a sign of respect.

"Like when you know, 'Okay, bro. It is time for me to exit because it is time for him to get his moment'....That's a respect thing. I don't think people understand that," he added.

Russo also mentioned that it would have been fitting if Cena's father had introduced him instead of Triple H, as it would have captured the emotion of the moment.
