The WWE product has greatly improved since the summer of 2022 as Triple H took over creative from Vince McMahon after McMahon stepped down due to a hush-money scandal.
There was a concern in 2023 when McMahon returned to the company, working remotely and overseeing the big picture with creative. While Triple H had been running most of the creative, things that appeared to come directly from McMahon were sometimes pushed on TV.
Things changed when Endeavor acquired WWE, and Triple H was given full creative power before McMahon exited the company for good due to the Janel Grant lawsuit. WWE has been doing record business ever since.
PWInsider.com reports Triple H paying close attention to fan feedback and reaction to the product. He has even been seen scrolling through social media for feedback while shows are in progress.
The report noted, “I would like to think Paul Levesque is a lot more receptive and understanding of what the audience wants and I do believe (from what I understand) that he pays very close attention to what the audience wants not just live but also based on social media feedback. I’ve been told there are many times where he is scrolling through Twitter [now known as X] from the Gorilla Position at the broadcasts and paying very close attention to what the audience is doing and reacting to as the shows are going on the air.”
WWE SummerSlam was a major success for the company, and its next PLE is Bash in Berlin later this month.
