Huge Update on Triple H's Future as Head of WWE Creative

Triple H reportedly signs a new deal with WWE

Regarding Triple H, the Post Wrestling report says that Khan confirmed Triple H would maintain his position inside of WWE. The report did not clarify whether or not this meant that Triple H was given a formal contract extension with the company.

However, in an update after Khan's comments, Sean Ross Sapp noted that it was "heavily implied" to him that Levesque had signed a new long-term contract with the company. This comes on the heels of WWE releasing a group of talent last Friday.

The creative complaints Khan was referencing about the company and Triple H had to do with the build to WrestleMania. Celebrity stars like Pat McAfee were inserted into top storylines at the request of top TKO Group officials like Ari Emanuel. Triple H was said to have not been a fan of those requests and produced television segments to address those concerns.

Other celebrity involvement at WrestleMania 42 included Jelly Roll and IShowSpeed. As for McAfee, he was a central figure to the main event storyline between Randy Orton and Cody Rhodes. McAfee was the mastermind behind Orton's vicious turn and made his disdain for the product, with Rhodes at the forefront, known.

Plans called for McAfee to wrestle a match alongside Orton against Rhodes and Jelly Roll, but those plans were scrapped when McAfee pulled himself out of the angle.

In addition to celebrity involvement, WrestleMania 42 was criticized for featuring too many advertisements and sponsorships throughout the two-night event. Those ads stood out more on the night one card, which featured short matches that weren't spectacular. Night two was easier to manage due to the fact that it featured Roman Reigns vs. CM Punk in a classic main event.

Triple H has been the head of WWE creative since Vince McMahon retired from the company in 2022. Prior to that, Triple H had creative influence and ran the NXT brand.
