D-Von Dudley heaps praise on former world champion for getting him producer role

D-Von Dudley is thankful to Triple H for helping him become a WWE producer.

Dudley is a WWE Hall of Famer; as one-half of the The Dudley Boyz, he had ten reigns as a tag team champion in the company. Alongside Bubba Ray, he also enjoyed plenty of success in various promotions around the world. Triple H's resume speaks for itself; he's a 14-time world champion.

During a recent appearance on Wrestle Buddy, Dudley spoke about The Game and stated that Triple H has always been supportive of him. Likewise, D-Von looked back on how The Cerebral Assassin always wanted him to shine when they worked together in the ring. He also named Triple H as the person who got him a job as a producer with the company.

“There were times it was me and Bubba versus, say, [Triple H] and Stephanie McMahon," said Dudley. "He would come to me when putting together a match and say, ‘D-Von, let’s shine you, let’s get you over.’ I’m like, ‘Alright, great!’ Hunter was always in my corner, I never had a problem. And to this day, I will always say that it was Hunter who brought me in as a producer. (h/t to Wrestling Inc.)

Dudley hasn't wrestled for WWE since 2016; instead, he has been focused on his role behind the scenes in recent years.

D-Von Dudley is aware Triple H is on his way to recovery

Triple H has not made an appearance on WWE programming since his cardiac event in September. Like many others, D-Von Dudley does not know any specifics about the fan-favorite's condition. That being said, he noted that he has heard that the 14-time world champion is on his way to recovery.

On the podcast, D-Von stated that he thinks Triple H will return, and everyone will be happy when he does.

“I don’t know personally, but like everybody else, I’m being told I think he’s on the road to recovery and he’s doing great," said Dudley. "I think people are anticipating his return, and I think they are going to be very happy when they see him take his rightful place." (h/t to Wrestling Inc.)

Though there have been no recent updates about Triple H's return, it is expected that The Game will come back at some point.
