“There Was Some Animosity…”: WWE Hall of Famer Once Revealed His Real Life Heat With Triple H Years After Latter Put a $100,000 Bounty on Him

There are many things that make pro wrestling a perfect fun package for the fans. Starting from larger-than-life gimmicks, spectacular moves, engaging storylines, and endless rivalries. When it comes to rivalries, the ruthless aggression era saw a number of historic feuds which kept the fans hooked, working as a connective link between different matches.

Among the legendary rivalries, some are worth remembering, while some are better to be dissolved over the course of time. Unfortunately, the Triple H vs Goldberg feuds probably fall in the second category as the duo failed to deliver up to the expectation as in-ring rivals.

Triple H awarded a handsome bounty to Batista for injuring Goldberg

But there is one such incident between them that can be considered one of the weirdest in WWE’s history. Once Triple H put a $100,000 million bounty on fellow evolution member Batista for injuring Goldberg during an episode of WWE Raw back in 2003. On October 20, 2003, during WWE Raw, Batista engaged in an angle between Goldberg and Shawn Michaels. The Evolution member put a chair around Goldberg’s ankle and then jumped into that, making him badly injured. The segment ended up with Triple H coming and awarding Batista a briefcase containing a $100,000 bounty as a revenge act for 2003’s Unforgiven.

However, it didn’t take long for the former Hall of Famer to come up with a perfect revenge shot on Triple H as he ended up beating Triple H and Batista during next month’s Raw episode. Moreover, he also successfully defended his World Heavyweight Championship title against Triple H during the 2003 Survivor Series.

Goldberg revealed real-life animosity between him and Triple H

After years passed, Goldberg became vocal about the real-life hit between the hunter and him, accusing the former of having strong hostility toward him.

“I was hanging out with Kevin [Nash] and Scott [Hall]. Their best friend was Triple H up at WWE. They had the whole Kliq thing. They’d always talk. There was some animosity between Hunter and I, and we just so happened to be represented by the same manager. There were things going back and forth,” the Hall of Famer noted while speaking with Dailywwenews.

Since the 2022 Elimination Chamber, Da man has been away from the ring. The speculation about his in-ring return was running high after the star himself stated that WWE Owes him a retirement match. However, shortly afterward, a report dismissed his claim.

While we are yet to see if The Iconic will be back in the ring to have his last dance into the squared circle or not, the 56-year-old superstar’s already established legacy is something worth looking back at.
