There is a large contingent of the WWE Universe ready and excited for the day Triple H is handed the keys to the "WWE kingdom".

With Vince McMahon's increased age and swirling rumors he's preparing to spend upwards of $500 million on the XFL, one has to imagine Vince's time sitting in on every WWE meeting, attending every television shooting, and making every final decision for the largest sports entertainment company in the world is coming to a close. Next in line appears to be Stephanie McMahon and her husband (Triple H), who arguably has his hand on the pulse of the WWE audience better than Vince does.

While Vince and Triple H often share many of the same philosophies, Triple H per NXT is far more "wrestling"-focused, more in tune with Indie promotions and eyeing international stars. He believes smaller guys have a place in WWE, he sees the value in strategic partnerships, and his ideas about the in-ring product could supply WWE with their crop of future talent for years to come. Meanwhile, some believe Vince is still stuck in the past and that "bigger is better."

But, what would a WWE-run company look like when managed by Triple H?

10. Push the Cruiserweights

A fly on the wall in the corporate offices of WWE might hear frequent disagreements between Vince and Triple H when it comes to the Cruiserweight Division.

Most wrestling fans know that Vince is not a fan, and that Triple H is the driving force behind making the 205 Live brand sustainable. Why is there such a gap between the two sides? Vince is still stuck in a time where the big men ran wrestling and while Triple H graduated from that era, he's also seen the changing of the guard.

Triple H saw the potential in holding a Cruiserweight Tournament like the one that debuted on WWE Network in 2016. He was very hands on before Vince took 205 Live and nearly destroyed it with terrible gimmicks and similar storylines to those offered on the main roster. It's now back in the hands of Triple H, and finding a groove with the WWE Universe.

The wrestling ring will one day be owned by names like Ricochet, The Young Bucks, Adam Cole and others who do not boast the typical WWE size and look. Yet, these are the guys Triple H is pushing to work with or trying to turn into stars. There's no doubt Triple H understands the value in giving the guys who can work the spotlight to show their stuff.

That will likely be one of his first orders of business.
