The heart of the matter

The former WWE Intercontinental Champion recently spoke to Chris Van Vliet and, during the interview, Young revealed how Triple H inadvertently brought him to tears after a backstage incident:

“It’s unfortunate that someone didn’t have my back because when I was having my last feud with The Miz, I was told I couldn’t use the cross-face chicken wing because it was a dangerous hold. Legit. I said I know what I’m doing, I’m not going to kill anyone.
"Fast forward and I found out the move was being saved for Asuka. The Miz pointed that out to me in the locker room weeks later and I was like ‘I f*****g knew it!’ It broke my heart. I’ve got pictures of him on my wall in my childhood room. It broke my heart. I cried like a baby backstage and he (Triple H) came over and was like ‘Darren, why are you crying?'” H/T: WrestlingNewsCo
