As previously reported, WWE recently reached out to wrestling legend Bruno Sammartino about headlining next year’s WWE Hall of Fame class. Sammartino’s camp issued a statement to the Wrestling Observer on Monday night confirming that Bruno was contacted – and is not interested.
The Observer is now reporting that Triple H recently called Bruno Sammartino and tried convincing him to accept the offer. Because Sammartino has bad blood with Vince McMahon, Triple H told him to not worry about Vince and to think about his legacy and educating today’s audience about his legendary career.
Bruno was reportedly not impressed with Triple H’s efforts.
