Triple H says he’s focused on doing his job to the best of his ability.
During his Elimination Chamber post-show press conference, Triple H was asked by Brandon Thurston of Wrestlenomics if he was in favor of a WWE sale prior to Vince McMahon’s return, or if he was still in favor. Triple H said that there are plenty of variables to consider, but he is OK with whatever situation allows him to keep doing his job.
“Depends on who’s buying, I suppose, what the offer is, what the outcome is. I stay out of it. That’s not a cop-out answer. I have the greatest gig in the world. I helped, in some small way, create the magic we did here tonight. And to me, it’s the best gig on the planet,” he said.
“As long as we get to do this, as long as we get to create it the way we get to create it, as long as we get to do our jobs and we get to go out there and put our passion on display,” Triple H explained, “as long as our talent is allowed to put their passion on display and do what we do, I’m good. I’m good. It is what it is.”
It was recently reported by Bloomberg that people familiar with Vince McMahon believe he is looking to get “as much as $9 billion” in the potential sale of WWE. Bloomberg noted several potential suitors including Endeavor Group Holdings Inc., the owner of Ultimate Fighting Championship, as well as a Middle East-based group. WWE CEO Nick Khan denied a report that WWE had a deal in place to sell, but he believed that the sale would be a quick process.
Vince McMahon retired in July 2022 amid an investigation into alleged sexual misconduct and hush money payments and returned to the WWE Board of Directors in January 2023. McMahon claimed that his return focused on the negotiations for a new WWE media rights deal and a potential sale.
