Former WWE Superstar and member of The Kliq, Sean “X-Pac” Waltman, recently appeared as a guest on WrestleTalk TV. In the latest clip released from the interview, which is featured above, Waltman talks about The Kliq’s initial impression of Triple H when he first came to WWE. Below are some of the highlights from the interview.
According to Waltman, The Kliq knew Triple H was destined for greatness. He offered the following comments regarding HHH’s early days in WWE.
“Obviously we didn’t predict exactly what would (happen), but immediately it was like, ‘let’s gobble him up.’ He was riding with Killer Kowalski every night, who was his teacher. He was trying to be cool to Walter (Kowalski). We were like, ‘you gotta drop Walter, you’re coming with us.’ We needed a designated driver anyway.”
While the group might have enjoyed the fact that he could be a designated driver, Waltman admitted that they saw a number of positive qualities in Triple H straight out of the gate.
“Level-headed, focused. His determination, drive. His learning curve, his aptitude. When he first got there, he was still the student, but the way he soaked up all the knowledge and got better, it was really light years ahead of how most people do it.”
