A 70-year-old legend has praised Triple H but also revealed the one big problem with WWE. The Stamford-based promotion is gearing up for its biggest show of the year, WrestleMania, in a few weeks but has faced scrutiny over some of its creative decisions.
Now, Hall of Famer Eric Bischoff has offered his take on the current WWE product. Speaking on D-Von Dudley’s YouTube channel, Bischoff said while the in-ring action is great, the storylines haven’t captured his attention.
Thanks for the submission!
He mentioned the storylines aren’t “rich enough”; however, he backed Triple H, saying he is the best man for the job when it comes to the creative.
“I think Paul Levesque is absolutely the best choice for that role. Paul is a traditional wrestling guy. He probably has much more respect for the old-school psychology, pacing, and match style than probably anybody in that company, other than maybe Shawn Michaels and Undertaker,” he said.
Bischoff did have one complaint, though, as he pointed out the biggest problem with the current WWE product. He said the product suffers from a “sameness” across characters and storylines.
“I think if there’s a problem with the product, if it feels a little flat right now, I think it’s starting to feel flat for the same reasons it felt flat to me back in 2019 when I complained about there being a sameness. There’s just a level of familiarity in each one of the characters and each one of the storylines and each one of the presentations and each one of the promos,” he added.
Triple H revealed the challenges of backstage role in WWE
Triple H has been heading WWE’s creative as the Chief Content Officer since 2022. During this tenure, he has overseen major creative decisions of the promotion and has also faced criticism for some choices.
In an interview with TKO Spotlight, The Game revealed the struggle after transitioning from an in-ring performer to a creative head.
He said as a wrestler one has to focus only on onself, but that changes with being an executive. He mentioned that you have to deal with a lot of people and focus on everything.
