Triple H is one of the most powerful people in all of wrestling and throughout the course of his career he’s feuded with some interesting names. Back in 2006 fans saw DX clash with the Spirit Squad during their feud with the McMahons, but it seems that there was at least one Spirit Squad that Triple H wasn’t fond of.
During a recent episode of his Cafe de Rene podcast Renee Dupree claimed that Triple H hated Nick Mitchell, known as Spirit Squad member Mitch at the time, when he said, “I remember being on the road and Hunter [Triple H] hated Mitch. Nick Mitchell, right? He hated him.”
Johnny Jeter who worked as Johnny in the Spirit Squad went on to say that Nick Mitchell made everyone laugh backstage, but he thinks Nick’s lack of experience created some issues for him.
“With Mitch, he didn’t have the experience and so that inherently made people not respect him enough. He was in a tough spot, right? If WWE says, ‘Hey, we’re gonna sign you, put you in a tag team,’ I don’t care what anyone says, they would do exactly what Mitch did.”
The Spirit Squad first debuted on WWE TV in January of 2006, and they split up in November of that same year. During their run they managed to capture the WWE World Tag Team Titles one time. Currently Dolph Ziggler is the only former Spirit Squad member who is still with WWE.
