We have reported for months now that there is a rumored working relationship between WWE and EVOLVE. The two sides have yet to confirm the rumors.
– Speaking of Triple H, he recently spoke with The Orlando Sentinel about the WWE Performance Center. Here are the highlights.
On the original idea of NXT:
“I think the biggest gap we have is that we’re doing all these amazing things to grow our business and our company, except: How are we finding these guys for the future? We’re a victim of our own success. Territories don’t exist; the outside places to do this are less and less. How do you want to do that?”
On the coolest thing about pro wrestling:
“The business has always been — I hate saying this — a traveling circus because I feel like most people say that in a derogatory way, but it’s like a traveling family. They’re all learning together at different levels and they are there to support each other, and that’s what I always stress to the talent. The coolest thing about this business is that when you’re a star, you can reach down and try to help a kid who is trying to become a star and help him or her.”
