Kofi Kingston talks Triple H being in charge.
Many wrestlers and personalities within the wrestling industry have praised Triple H and his current reign of creative in WWE. 'The Game' took full control of creative in the company in January 2023 after Vince McMahon was forced to resign from WWE due to Janel Grant's lawsuit that accused him of sex trafficking, emotional abuse, and sexual assault.
While speaking to the Battleground Podcast for a new interview, Kofi Kingston talked about Triple H being in charge and how he is doing a phenomenal job.
"I think he’s doing such a phenomenal job right now. You got glimpses of what he could do with a roster when he was running NXT. When he took over NXT, there was a lot of eyes on NXT because they just started doing things a little bit differently, especially in comparison to the way things were run on the [main] roster at that given time. So now to see him at the helm, being able to bring that same mentality to the main roster, it’s great. Like I said, you’ve seen the results of it. You’ve seen how people are engrossed in the product. I think he really understands, and you go back and you think about him as a worker, his matches were storyline-based, story-driven. The matches themselves told a story from start to finish. So to bring that same mentality to the show now, you can see that, and I think it’s great. I think he’s doing a phenomenal job. Hat’s off to Triple H. It’s been an amazing ride. I think one of the main things that he focuses on is doing things in a unique way. It might be a little thing here and there. It might be the way that Sami Zayn enters into Montreal on the heels of Jey Uso leaving the crowd, leaving the building, you see Sami Zayn looking up at the building. Now Sami Zayn comes in. It’s little, but it’s so outside the box that it makes it really, really unique, to get the perspective of the crowd from Sami Zayn’s angle. I’m watching, I’m like, oh my god, it just feels different. There’s a lot of little things like that that he will do. They add so much to the product and the presentation of a match, the presentation of a promo, the presentation of an interaction, somebody being in the background of something, little Easter eggs for people to be rewarded who have invested in the product for so long. So it’s really cool to see that he’s really going out of his way to make the product different after so many years of the way it’s traditionally been."
