Triple H recently discussed why he never competed in a Money in the Bank ladder match in an interview with Newsweek.com. Here's why:
āI have no desire to climb a high ladder and get pushed off of it. There are certain guys that are built forĀ laddersĀ and guys who are and Iām not one of them. My ladder matches haveĀ normallyĀ involved me whacking someone with it or getting whacked with it aĀ lot. So climbing and falling off of it is not myĀ forte. When the MITB ladder matches started to come around, it was built around an additional match at WrestleMania. Iāve really just had these other storylines going on where I was never sort of involved in the MITB matchesĀ themselves. Iāve had ladder matches and been involved with aĀ lotĀ of them. Itās never anything that I regret because youāve never seen me do a moonsault for a reason.ā
āItās hard to say, especially when you look at 25 years. Ask me after 25 more and Iāll tell you what I think my legacy should be, I guess. Itās hard for me to say that. If I had to say anything itāll be that he was the greatest sports entertainer in the world and was passionate every day about not only being a part of it, but putting it out there to entertain people, and hopefully they were. Whether it was my matches, my career or now with NXT or the talent, or in general whatever being a part of WWE is today. I know people say a lot to put a smile on peopleās faces, it is what we do, so if people are entertained by what Iāve been a part of then thatās my legacy.ā
