A former WWE star recently made a shocking claim about Triple H. Another former superstar has now confirmed the allegations.

After winning the inaugural season of Tough Enough with Nidia Guenard, Maven wrestled in the Stamford-based company between 2001 and 2005.

In 2003, Triple H married Vince McMahon’s daughter, Stephanie McMahon, after a few years of dating. In a recent YouTube video, Maven claimed that WWE informed superstars that attending The Game’s bachelor party was obligatory.

The former Hardcore Champion noted that nearly all WWE stars were at the party, except for the groom himself, who showed up just before closing time.

I remember when he and Steph were about to get married, the company actually forced us to go to his bachelor party. And you’re saying, Maven, how did they force you to go to his bachelor party? Here’s how.

We would fly in on Friday, wrestle three non-televised house shows, then on Monday night, do Monday Night Raw, and fly home every Tuesday. That was how it was week after week.

Well, the company decided to have Triple H’s bachelor party on a Tuesday night in a North Carolina strip club, and they conveniently made sure our flights were for Wednesday. We had to go.

I can’t remember anyone not showing up. Why? Well, of course, I was there cuz I like strip clubs, but most of the guys were there because they just didn’t want to be the one that didn’t show up to Triple H’s bachelor party.

Well, actually, there was one guy that didn’t show up. Who would that guy be? Triple H himself. We were in the club the entire night, and Triple H would show up the last 20 minutes before closing time. [H/T: Ringside News]

Ex-WWE Star Stevie Richards Confirms Maven’s Story About Triple H’s Bachelor Party

Maven’s comments were met with disbelief from some WWE fans. However, former WWE star Stevie Richards recently confirmed the story on The Stevie Ricahrds Show.

The 54-year-old veteran, who spent nine years in the Stamford-based promotion, revealed that he received a call from talent relations to invite him to Triple H’s bachelor party. When he brought up that he and The Game were not close and they did not even get along, he was told his attendance was mandatory.

Richards added that he had to come up with an excuse to avoid attending the party.

I’ve been told like directly from the boys and other people that I’m lying that talent relations… They said, ‘There’s no way Talent Relations did this.’ I got a call from Talent Relations inviting me to Triple H’s bachelor party. And I said, ‘Well, I don’t really know the guy and we don’t really get along and I don’t think he wants me there.’ And they said, ‘No, you don’t understand. We’re calling on behalf of the company to tell you that this is mandatory that you attend his bachelor party.’

And I said, ‘I don’t think the guy’s that unpopular that the office has…’ I’m saying this to the people in Talent Relations, to the two women that were in charge of doing this. And I said, ‘I think he has a lot of friends or people that would go to this on their own accord.’ And I go, ‘You guys are forcing the talent to go to the bachelor party.’ And I said, ‘Well, unfortunately, I’m going to have a family emergency that day and I can’t go.’ I wasn’t gonna go, dude.
