Paul “Triple H” Levesque Acknowledges How Shifting Consumer Habits Have Transformed Wrestling

Paul “Triple H” Levesque recognizes that change is inevitable over time.

During a recent appearance on Greg & The Morning Buzz, WWE’s Chief Content Officer discussed how shifts in business practices and consumer habits have influenced storytelling in WWE programming, particularly within the ring itself.

"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," Levesque shared. "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, say ‘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.'"

Levesque elaborated, “No, you’re just old, dude. 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 no way shape or form about what I want. It’s about what they want. If it becomes about what I want, this show will die.”
