WWE and UFC formed TKO Group Holdings, a little over two months ago which is creatively controlled by Triple H now. Approximately one hundred staff and thirty wrestlers were let go and even more notable change occurred in the middle of these big changes: Vince McMahon no longer has the ultimate word over WWE Creative.
For a long time, McMahon was in control of the company’s creative direction, but that duty now falls to his son-in-law, Triple H. He spoke to Sports Illustrated recently about the booking instructions he received from Vince McMahon, his career aspirations, and the significance of giving back to the fans.
Triple H reveals Vince McMahon’s advice
Vince McMahon is no longer the decision-maker in WWE’s creative direction. He left his position last year after sexual misconduct claims surfaced against him. McMahon continues to have a significant impact on the business, and his counsel is still widely considered to be sound.
McMahon handed over the creative reins to Paul Levesque (Triple H) after a short retirement and subsequent comeback. Levesque, now in control, provided insights into his approach to booking, inspired by McMahon’s lessons, during an interview with Sports Illustrated.

He claimed, “Vince [McMahon] taught me years ago, you put yourself in the seats & you’ll never go wrong, you’ve always got to maintain that perspective. I started out as a fan. Book what people want to feel & see.”

As Ari Emanuel says, people should be able to do their jobs without any problems, so Paul “Triple H” Levesque now has more power over WWE Creative. The effects of this transition are clear, as seen by developments like WWE Raw’s newfound focus on in-ring wrestling and the rise of Japanese superstars like Shinsuke Nakamura and Kairi Sane.
Triple H and Vince McMahon’s relationship
Vince McMahon and Triple H have a special relationship both in and out of the ring. After McMahon’s retirement, WWE’s Triple H assumed creative control. Triple H has a significant family relationship outside of the ring as well; he is married to Vince’s daughter Stephanie McMahon.
The real-life relationship between Vince and Triple H is a mystery, despite their on-screen battles. Eric Bischoff, a WWE Hall of Famer, noted the true friendship and respect shared between McMahon and Triple H, highlighting Vince’s esteem for Triple H’s talents more than their familial connections.
