10 Wrestlers Who Turned Down Triple H
10. The Young Bucks Told Papa H No... FOUR OR FIVE TIMES!
In the time before the idea of becoming All Elite was even an official thing, Triple H reportedly had designs on bringing in the titular Elite as part of a shocking invasion storyline around 2019.
Said initial report by Dave Meltzer was then further explained by The Young Bucks a bit later down the road, with Matt and Nick Jackson eventually revealing how the then-head of NXT went about trying to turn The Elite's heads towards all things Sports Entertainment.
As the former AEW World Tag Team and Trios Champions noted to Fightful's Sean Ross Sapp, despite the company not even being aware of their eventual promotion even being a concept at the point of their negotiations, WWE threw "everything" at the group.
Despite this being the case, the world class pair would go on to decline Trips' offer to join the WWE machine "at least four or five times". Though the tag team icons would also stress that Levesque was a "charming dude" who "said all the right things".
All the charm - and money - in the world couldn't convince the eventual AEW EVP's to fully get onboard with The Game's vision of an Elite corner of WWE, however, and The Bucks haven't really looked back ever since.
