10 Wrestling Facts We Didn't Know Last Week (Feb 6)

2. Triple H Outshines Vince

It'll be interesting to see if this story had relevance in storyline going forward, but Triple H claimed during a recent interview with Michael Cole that his appearance on Steve Austin's podcast attracted 40% more fans than Vince McMahon's interview just a few weeks prior. The big question on everyone's lips will be, is this a subtle dig at his elder, or is Triple H simply furthering his arrogant Authority character? Whatever the case, if the statistic turns out to be true, and this interview did bigger numbers than McMahon, it represents a shift in the WWE landscape. There was a time when an open interview with Vince McMahon would have been the biggest thing fans could imagine, but has Triple H supplanted Vince as the man the audience sees as the figurehead of the promotion? If so, what does this mean for the future?
