Sportskeeda's Gary Cassidy has conducted an interview with the recently-released Lio Rush, touching on all kinds of different topics - including his relationship with NXT head honcho Triple H.

On departing from WWE as part of Black Wednesday's mass releases, Lio said: "I don't know if it ended on good terms or not because I feel like me and Hunter clashed heads a lot."

"We were always in disagreement as far as what the plan was for me and how he saw me as a character or how he saw me as an asset to the brand," Rush extrapolated. "I feel like we were just always disagreeing all the time and it sucked because you know, obviously I looked up to Triple H when I was a kid and stuff like that."

The former NXT Cruiserweight Champion continued, saying there was a "lack of communication" between him and 'The Game' prior to him being cut, and that he knew something wasn't right when the back and forth between the two stopped "out of nowhere." That's when he knew his release was coming.

Rush is yet to announce his next big move, though he has intimated that he may not stay in wrestling.
