Former WWE wrestler Darren Young revealed that Triple H once made him cry backstage during an interview with Chris Van Vliet. Young was told he couldn't use the Crossface Chicken Wing because it was a dangerous hold, only to find out it was being saved for Asuka.
āItās unfortunate that someone didnāt have my back because when I was having my last feud with The Miz, I was told I couldnāt use the crossface chicken wing because it was a dangerous hold. Legit. I said I know what Iām doing, Iām not going to kill anyone. Fast forward and I found out the move was being saved for Asuka.Ā The MizĀ pointed that out to me in the locker room weeks later and I was like āI f*cking knew it!ā It broke my heart. Iāve got pictures of him on my wall in my childhood room. It broke my heart. I cried like a baby backstage and he came over and was like āDarren, why are you crying?'ā
Young also talked about coming out as gay:
āIt was Stephanie McMahon and Vince McMahon who really embraced me and let me know that everything would be ok,ā he revealed. āVince genuinely talked to me for 20 minutes about his best friend Pat Patterson being gay. Patās a great guy. Iām not a bitter wrestler and Iāll never be a bitter wrestler. Vince gave me a shot and Iām grateful that he gave me a shot.ā
