Triple H On When He Plans To Hang Up The Boots, What He’s In Charge Of And More

Triple H recently spoke to Muscle & Fitness about his responsibilities as a WWE executive, when he plans to retire and more. The interview was conducted prior to his match with Roman Reigns at WrestleMania 32 and you can check out the full interview here along with some highlights below.

What it’s like to be a performer and an executive:

“Going from the locker room and the road to coming into the office and working with the executives, it’s a totally different mindset and culture. You have to learn how to switch hats quickly. Something I always marveled at when I would first come into the office was Vince’s ability to switch hats instantaneously. One minute he was looking at logo designs, the next minute he was making a decision about an international market, then 10 seconds later he was doing something creative that had to do with the show. And that’s what it takes because there’s so much flux.

“I’m in charge of talent, live events, and a lot of the creative. I also have a lot of input with certain programming. To be honest, if I weren’t on the show every week my life would be a whole lot easier. It takes up a lot of time.”

When he plans to retire from wrestling:

“I think about that. I don’t want to be doing this just to do it. In the past several years there have been opportunities that have presented themselves. It all depends on the year. If you ask me right now about next year, I’m not even thinking about next year. I’m thinking about WrestleMania, and on Monday, after WrestleMania is over, I’ll think about what’s next after that.”
