10 Ways Triple H Has Transformed WWE In Just One Month
6. Restoring NXT Piece-By-Piece
Is NXT 3.0 incoming?
It could be, because Triple H has started to surround himself with clever wrestling minds who understand what he originally tried to achieve with the brand and want to restore the thing to former glories. Shawn Michaels is the top example here, and he'll obviously work well alongside his old D-Generation X partner..
Another Trips buddy, Road Dogg, has recently returned the fold. He was a critical part of Hunter's NXT success, and probably will be again once 'The Game' starts to reshape WWE's third brand post-Vince McMahon. Fans can probs kiss goodbye to the current NXT 2.0 setup, to be honest.
NXT's peak came when WWE let the show become its own thing and prioritised strong in-ring content over everything else. Triple H knows the value of a developmental territory/farm system, and the need for a steady stream of ready-made workers who can elevate Raw and SmackDown once they've had their fill on the 'other show'.
