Additionally, Gulak praised H for his vision of taking the concept of Cruiserweight Classic with a sports-oriented feel and developing it into a brand.
“His vision was to take that Cruiserweight Classic concept where it was a sport-oriented feel and turn that into a brand. Most of that vision stuck. A lot of it go modified and changed and grew over time, which is what happens when you’re running a show that didn’t have a start or end date,” he added.
Drew Gulak further talked about how Triple H‘s ideas had a long-lasting impact on the show. He said that ideas don’t have a beginning or an end date, as they just keep on living, getting modified and growing over time, and that is normal for any show.
