Triple H has clearly changed the landscape of the wrestling world since he stepped up as the new leader of WWE. The Game has set the standards for every other promotion with records breaking very frequently.
The company has also started naming smaller promotions during their TV shows, which Vince McMahon evidently wasn't in support of during his time at the helm. During CM Punk vs. Drew McIntyre at WWE Bash in Berlin, Michael Cole mentioned how The Best in the World won his first Ohio Valley Wrestling Championship in a Strap Match.
In a recent episode of Jim Cornette's Drive-Thru podcast, Jim Cornette addressed WWE naming other promotions on TV and stated that the company didn't care anymore. The veteran stated that under Triple H, things have changed a lot and the outcomes are evidence of the success.
"They were talking about, you know, Revolution Pro and Westside Extreme Wrestling in Germany. Vince would have went, 'What the fu*k? No,' but they're giving these people's backgrounds. Before they came here, to the biggest show on Earth, they had excelled in other places. They even mentioned Punk won his first Ohio Valley Wrestling Title in a Strap Match; they even mentioned that for fu*k's sake," stated Cornette. [6:03 to 6:33]
He further added that Triple H didn't care about competition anymore except for one glaring name.
"So, it's, you know, again, they don't give... They know they're so far ahead that there's no reason not to acknowledge 85 or 90% of the fu*king wrestling in the world, maybe with one glaring exception," Cornette added. [6:33 onwards]
Natalya shared her thoughts on working with Triple H
WWE veteran Natalya recently shared her feelings about working with Triple H. The former women's champion stated that it was a breath of fresh air, given that The Game was also a wrestler and knew the ins and outs of the industry.
"I was saying this to my husband the other day. ‘Working with Triple H over the last year, it’s been such a breath of fresh air,’ because he was also a wrestler. So he knows all about what it’s like. You’re pitching a storyline or you’re going through a hardship at home or - he has three daughters as well. So, he knows about handling girls. Girls are different than guys. We’re more emotional and we overthink things… He’s a really cool boss. I really like working for him and with him. It’s just been such a breath of fresh air," she said. (H/T - POST Wrestling)
Natalya made her return to WWE on RAW this week, when she teamed up with Lyra Valkyria and Zelina Vega to take down Pure Fusion Collection. However, her future role with the company is still unknown. Time will tell if Natalya makes her way back on WWE TV as a full-time star.
