Triple H Finally Admits His Role in the Montreal Screwjob

Triple H just shattered one of wrestling’s longest-standing mysteries. In a recent interview on The Roommates podcast, WWE’s Chief Content Officer finally came clean about his involvement in the infamous Montreal Screwjob—a moment that changed the course of wrestling history forever.

Recounting the lead-up to Survivor Series 1997, Triple H described a pivotal conversation with Vince McMahon about Bret Hart’s refusal to drop the WWE Championship to Shawn Michaels. “Vince had come to us and said, ‘Bret’s not resigning, and he won’t drop the title to Shawn.’” With the clock ticking and no resolution in sight, Triple H made his voice heard. “I was the least important person in the room at the time, but I just said, ‘F*** that—if he won’t do business, do it for him.’”

That moment, as Triple H revealed, sparked the plan that led to the Montreal Screwjob, where Hart was betrayed in front of his hometown crowd in one of the most shocking finishes in wrestling history.

For years, fans speculated about who was truly behind the controversial decision. Now, Triple H has confirmed what many long suspected—he played a key role in orchestrating the infamous event.

Triple H’s shocking confession about the Montreal Screwjob pulls back the curtain on one of wrestling’s most insane moments, proving just how ruthless the business can be behind the scenes. Love it or hate it, his admission cements his place in wrestling history as a mastermind of controversy.
