Since Vince McMahon left WWE and Triple H took over creative duties, the product has undergone significant changes.
Fans and wrestlers have praised the weekly TV show and PLEs, and many wrestlers have publicly stated how much has improved backstage among the talent and production crew.
While speaking on Sam Roberts’ “Notsam Wrestling” podcast, WWE Hall of Famer Kurt Angle discussed Triple H running WWE:
“I love the fact that Triple H is in charge. He was always the one that I knew that could run the business and run it properly. He gets it. He gets the comedy. He gets the seriousness. He gets these wrestlers needing to be world class athletes, not just good workers, but great athletes. He just totally gets it. He’s one of those guys that is going to take chances, but not as much as Vince did. I think he’s going to have more rational answers and programs that are going to make more sense and not be so outlandish or goofy or crazy. I think Triple H has a great mind for the business. He always has.”
Angle continued, “I will tell you this. When I get in the ring with him, he is the one that I feel most secure about because he can lead you in a match, and then go a separate way for another 10 minutes, improvise, go back to the spot where you ended with. He is just a great improviser. He knows every facet of the business, and I think that he is the one that should carry this company because he has a great mind. He really does. He has the best mind for the business of anybody I’ve known since Vince.”
Angle’s feelings about Triple H are similar to those of many other legends, including The Undertaker.
