Words matter. These are the best Triple H Quotes, and they’re great for sharing with your friends.
When I’m on the road, restaurants are like gyms: I know where I want to be in each city.
Getting ready to wrestle is like getting ready for a car crash. Getting ready to work with Brock Lesnar is like knowing you’re going to get hit by a bus and the bus is going to back over you. If I’m going to work ‘WrestleMania,’ 16 weeks out I have to start training like I’m Mayweather getting ready for a fight.
Hollywood’s great, but wrestling is my first love.
I can tell you there will be a performance centre in India. There will be a performance centre in the Middle East. There will, more than likely, be a performance centre in Latin America. We will be replicating this process around the globe, all over.
None of us are bigger than the WWE. It will always continue to go on, and I will always be a part of it.
My goal is to make that must-see television so that you have to have the Network. My goal is to make 205 Live the place to see high-flying in a big way. If you’re a fan of the U.K. style, then the Network is the place to go get that style.
It’s the beauty of WWE. We use all our platforms to cross-promote each other and vice versa.
When I went to WCW, I was never supposed to go in there as Terra Ryzing.
To me, it’s what WWE is: the history, the legacy, all the women who come before this. From Mae Young onwards, their legacy lives forever.
I’m friends with Criss Angel. Criss has offered me a million times to go downstairs and see the setup. I don’t want to see it. I just want to go, ‘God, how did you do that?’
I love steakhouses. When I’m in Chicago, I know there’s a Gibsons that’s open late. 13 Coins at Sea-Tac Airport in Washington is a gourmet restaurant I love.
Hardcore wrestling like CZW is just nonsense. There’s no story there. You’ve got guys jumping off of houses onto barb wired tables, and that’s it. They don’t know how to work. CZW is trash.
If you’re going to set an ambition, set it high.
We can find athletes. The biggest challenge is personality. It’s finding charisma. In most sports, they tell you to turn down the personality. Look like everyone else on the team. It’s the team; it’s not you. In this, it’s the opposite. It’s you, not the team. We want you to become the big star.
It’s one thing to put out the opportunity, but it’s another to take it and run with it. People say to me, ‘Thank you for the opportunity,’ and I always respond with, ‘Thank you for taking it.’ We need to be able to see where, how, these changes can grow. Rome wasn’t built in a day, nor was WWE.
Can you do inter-gender matches? Ronda Rousey and our match at Wrestlemania – sure, it can be done. Women don’t need a man in their match to steal the show. They just need an equal platform and opportunity, and if the women have it, they will work just as hard, if not harder, than anybody else to steal that show.
It never ceases to amaze me that you come to any place in the world and walk down the street, and people know who you are. There’s nowhere you can go in the world without being recognised as a WWE superstar.
Balancing trying to be an athlete trying to get ready for WrestleMania, training twice a day, to everything you do at the office to remembering that you have a wife and kids and everything else – it’s challenging, but you just make it happen. In some ways, it’s no different than anyone else’s life.
From my point of view, I’d like to bring other meaningful events through WWE, whether that’s NXT or the United Kingdom championships, taking international brands and putting them on in those markets.
‘WWE Redefined’ has become my new catchphrase.
If we go in the Middle East, and we start to recruit there, and we see that all of a sudden there’s this massive interest, there’s massive depth of people that we feel have the ability to succeed, then we would go there first – or quicker.
WrestleMania is a week-long series of events, and the logistics of executing that week along with the week leading into it and the week after it are extraordinarily difficult in our own back yard.
