Triple H comments on UFC and WWE merger.
Triple H took over as the lead of creative in WWE in mid-2022 after Vince McMahon stepped down from his position as WWE CEO amid sexual misconduct and hush money allegations. Though Vince would make creative changes from afar over the past year, Triple H (Paul Levesque) has firmly established himself the creative leader since WWE and UFC officially merged to create TKO under the Endeavor banner.
Speaking to Justin Barrasso of Sports Illustrated, Triple H commented on the merger.
“I can’t tell you how excited I am,” he said. “Working with Endeavor, it’s next level. The flywheel for all the things they touch–if you were trying to build that on your own, it’s taking you a decade. For us, now, it fast tracks everything we’re doing.
“Endeavor, UFC, they’re the best in the business at what they do. They put things on a different level of professionalism, and we fit right into that. The future is so bright because of the opportunities Endeavor is going to provide for us and the synergies that are there. We’re going to take this to a whole new level.”
Triple H was ringside at the Callum Walsh vs. Ismael Villarreal fight on Thursday night with Dana White and Nick Khan.
TKO was in the headlines on Thursday afternoon as it was announced that Vince McMahon was selling 8.4 million shares of his stock. Fans can learn more by clicking here.
