Ricardo Rodriguez Accuses Triple H Of Calling Him Fat, Deletes Tweets

Ricardo claims HHH's nickname for him was "Bumblebee", in reference to The Simpsons character.

Ricardo Rodriguez has been rather outspoken since leaving the WWE, and this week is no exception. Upon news that WWE officially signed Kevin Steen, Ricardo took to Twitter in a bitter rant saying €œCongrats.. I hope he at least looked at you while shaking hands at one point and did call you fat as f€“k. #OhMemories." The tweet was in response to a photo of Steen alongside WWE COO Triple H. Much like Rodriguez, Steen has been criticized in the past for his weight issues. According to sources Rodriguez was having an issue maintaining a weight goal that the WWE set for him. Due to this the WWE opted to keep him off of television. In Steen's case he lost weight prior to coming into the company. Ricardo wasn't done there, criticizing Triple H and accusing him of making somewhat racial jokes. €œ#BumbleBee was his name for me€ Don€™t even think he ever knew my real name," Rodriguez said. Bumblebee is the name of a Hispanic character on The Simpsons in which wears a bumblebee suit. Rodriguez later deleted the tweets.
