Triple H says he doesn’t see color or nationality when asked about representation on WWE shows.
At the WWE Bad Blood Post-Show, TJ Legacy of Soapbox Run the Ropes asked WWE Chief Content Officer Triple H about making sure there was representation on the shows. Legacy pointed out that Black male wrestlers haven’t had a match on the last three WWE PLEs, including Bad Blood.
“I don’t see the difference in anybody, I don’t see the color, I don’t see the nationality, I don’t see any of it,” Triple H said. “I just see talent, I don’t see the difference between men and women, I see talent. We tell stories with those talent. How they can handle those stories and how they can represent those stories and how we can bring those stories forward.
“So I don’t keep track of any of that. I do what’s relevant and what is best and the best in storytelling and what’s being delivered the best. That’s what goes. [It’s] no different than the men and the women, who main events. Whatever the biggest stories are, that’s where we go.”
There have not been any Black men on a WWE premium live event card for three consecutive main roster shows. The last event to have a Black male competitor was Money In The Bank, which saw Carmelo Hayes in a MITB ladder match. Prior to that, the last main roster show to feature Black male talent was WrestleMania 40.
