A top WWE name has revealed details of the conversation that he had with Triple H after being hired last year.

A few weeks after WWE hired him, Nick Aldis was introduced as the new General Manager of SmackDown. He has done an incredible job as an on-screen authority figure since then. Many fans are calling for the 37-year-old to step into the ring as well, somewhere down the line.

Aldis recently had a chat with Kenny McIntosh of Inside The Ropes and opened up about his chat with Triple H after the Stamford-based promotion hired him. As per Aldis, The Game assured him that he would get over with fans the moment he started speaking.

"I think Hunter looked at it as, like, let’s rip the band-aid off. There’s no easy way to do this that’s not going to be a little bit awkward. So let’s get it out of the way. And then he just said, 'I’m going to give you the mic right away, and you’ll get over. Once you talk you’ll be okay.' And that’s how I felt about it. I was like, the sooner I can get in the ring and forget that part the better, just give me the mic," Nick Aldis said. [H/T ITR Wrestling]
