The recent acquisition of WWE by Endeavor has led to several changes in the workings and internal management of WWE. Triple H has now taken the reins, shifting the center of power from Vince McMahon, who once held sway over everything.
According to a report by Fightful.com, Triple H has been directing all creative operations for weeks. In fact, the new change in the atmosphere is here to stay as Paul Levesque will continue being the man in charge.
The new report says that Ari Emanuel, the CEO of Endeavor, liked the way Triple H worked after his ‘knighting’ as the sole creative lead.

This often forced writers to choose what was safe according to Vince over what was actually best for business. While Vince made minimal changes remotely, playing favorites disrupted things.
