CM Punk was a guest on Friday’s Pat McAfee Show, where he discussed various topics, including the difference between working with Triple H and Vince McMahon.
Punk cited Triple H as being open to other people’s ideas and willing to take feedback. Punk does think that regardless of who’s in charge, you have to have a person with the final say.
“I think he’s receptive to other people’s ideas, whereas maybe Vince wasn’t. He was like, ‘I’m the boss. We’re doing this, and this is how we’re doing it.’ And that’s great. If you run a company, you need somebody who is the yes and no man and [has] the final say. But I think Triple H thinks he’s surrounded, and oftentimes is, by a lot of really, really genius wrestling minds. If he has an idea or see something one way, he’ll look at Michael Hayes and be like, ‘What do you think?’ He’ll turn and look at Paul Heyman. These are people who have Bonafide resumes. They have literally done everything you possibly could do in the sport. I think their voices should be heard. Not all the time everybody’s going to have this dynamite idea. But I think the best idea always wins in today’s WWE.”
Punk noted that he doesn’t like talking publicly about the backstage vibes because it comes across as BS, as he has been in places where they say that, but everyone hates everybody.
