10 WWE Wrestlers With The Triple H STINK

1. Dexter Lumis

You would be fooled for thinking Dexter Lumis had been released during one of the company's scattered firing sprees in 2023.

One of the weirder pet projects of Triple H's first summer in charge, Lumis was a one-note joke that often stopped being amusing in NXT, and with his matches almost never even cracking the lowest expected standards for the current era, and multi-month series with The Miz was just about the least appealing idea 'The Game' had in his locker.

When everybody involved got that mess out of their system, it felt - and again not to be too brutal about this - that WWE would do exactly that with the murder-turned-shagger-turned-mercenary babyface. An earnestly lovely reunion with storyline love interest Indi Hartwell for her early-2023 NXT successes notwithstanding, Lumis has haunted the halls more as one of his disappeared victims than as the killer himself. As of this writing, he last appeared on camera in May.

What's going on there? And are you even interested in the answer? The stink - even with WWE red hot by every metric - remains real.
