Triple H Reacts To Older Wrestlers Who Complain About Modern Wrestling

Professional wrestling has been around for a long time and throughout the history of wrestling it has changed a lot. From the in-ring style, to the presentation, professional wrestling always seems to be evolving, but not everyone agrees with the direction it’s heading.

Triple H has been a key figure in WWE through several different eras and he’s currently the person in control of creative. During a recent interview with Greg & The Morning Buzz, Triple H was asked which of his older friends are texting him about the show with their opinions and he had an interesting response.

“Nobody actually texts me during the show because they know I’m not going to answer, for the most part. It’s interesting the different points of view. I know guys across many different generations, and I think there are some older performers that look at the way kids perform today and they say, ‘They’re just not doing it right. They don’t need to do all this.’ I get that, but it’s the way kids consume it today.

There is a saying about when things start to leave you in life. The first thing to go is music. How many people, as you see them get older, ‘Music today sucks. Back in my day, that’s when they made good music. People put their heart and their soul into it and there was real emotion there.’ No, you’re just old, dude.

Yeah, the stuff was great in your generation and you learned it a certain way, but the kids today learn it a different way, and what they see and what they think is cool, then that’s what you need to give them. I can’t control that.

I learned this 30 years the hard way. It is in no way shape or form about what I want. It’s about what they want. If it becomes about what I want, then the show will die. It is about what they want and that overall big picture.”

Do you think Triple H is doing a good job with WWE creative? Sound off in the comments below.
