"They don’t know what else to do with him"- Triple H's booking of former WWE Champion called out by veteran (Exclusive)
Triple H has been in charge of WWE Superstars' booking ever since Vince McMahon stepped down from his position as the head of the creative. While fans are majorly on board with The Game's decisions, wrestling veteran Vince Russo recently slammed the 55-year-old for his booking of Kofi Kingston.
Kofi was one of the hottest acts in the company at one time. However, The New Day member has done nothing notable since dropping the WWE Championship. Kingston has been on the losing end of most of his singles matches and the same was the case on RAW last night where he suffered a defeat to Bron Breakker.
While speaking on Sportskeeda Wrestling's Legion of RAW podcast, former WWE head writer Vince Russo stressed that Triple H and Co. have completely fumbled Kofi Kingston.
"You wasted everything you did. You can’t go from here (top) to here (bottom). You put so much time and energy and money and now it means absolutely nothing," Vince Russo said. [1:04:33 - 1:04:46]
The veteran added that Kingston has been in the Stamford-based company for so long, that they have run out of ideas for him:
"Yes [Kofi’s booking is diminishing WWE Championship’s legacy]. He has been there so long, they don’t know what else to do with him. He’s been there forever, The Miz has been there forever. So, you get to the point of, 'Okay, what do we do with them?' What you do is you move on from them." [1:05:05 - 1:05:25]
