WWE COO Triple H recently did an interview on the World According To Wrestling podcast to talk about a number of professional wrestling topics. You can check out what he had to say here:
“Did it change our timing a little bit because of when they positioned their show? Yeah, but we are talking by maybe months or something not speeding up the process in terms of getting it done,” Triple H said. “We’ve been working on this for a long time. Any other show aside, if they are successful I’m happy for them. And, at the end of the day, it all helps the industry so we just do what we do. And I think we do it better than anyone else on the planet.”
Revolution Pro Wrestling founder Andy Quildan then commented on WWE moving into the English scene:
“Worrying about what everyone else is doing and trying to get into pretend wrestling wars with people is just ridiculous,” Quildan said. “The fact of the matter is if WWE want to come over and takeover UK wrestling, they’re going to do it. It is what it is. Let’s continue to do what we do in the highest level possible.
“I can see people’s mentality with ‘they’re trying to take over British wrestling’ and my argument is if you look at for example theatre, look at the West End. How many different theatrical productions are going on in the West End every single night. All at the same time. All competing with one another… I’m not phased by it. It’s a very interesting time and certainly a lot of stuff’s changing but at the same time it’s nice for British wrestling not to be an afterthought for once.”
