Triple H has changed a lot of the company culture in WWE ever since he rose to power. He has made decisions that Vince McMahon wouldn’t have approved during his reign. Recently, a female wrestler from WWE’s active roster was announced to appear in another promotion’s wrestling event. Moreover, the event in question will be held during WrestleMania week in Philadelphia.
While this announcement seems absurd on WWE’s part, reports suggest that the CCO of the company is behind it. Not only has Triple H approved of this, but he is also reportedly supportive of some stars featuring in other promotions even during Mania week.
Triple H could be open to more partnerships

Shayna Baszler was recently announced to appear on GCW’s Bloodsport, which will take place on April 4th in Philadelphia. The PPV will take place only a couple of days before WrestleMania 40 in the same city. Since Baszler is still signed with WWE and is being promoted by GCW as her gimmick in the leading wrestling promotion, it was strange for fans to comprehend.
But now, reports from a credible source suggest that Triple H could have been behind this approval after all.
According to the Wrestling Observer Newsletter‘s Figure-Four daily update, Baszler’s appearance at the upcoming GCW PPV is a Triple H decision. Moreover, the newsletter claims that Paul Levesque has a “different view on these things“.

In the past, we have also seen WWE partner up with TNA. And now, the CCO is trying to befriend another promotion. Could this also result in more crossovers?
This is also not the only change that Triple H has brought about in the WWE workplace. Randy Orton appreciates the changes in the company time and again.

Triple H receives appreciation for working differently
The Viper had to face many problems during his injury hiatus. Although he eventually recovered, beating the odds, he still, at times, comes across moments that hold him back from wrestling due to his injury. When he came back to the promotion, Triple H and Nick Khan asked him to inform them if he ever felt like wrestling would be risky during any show.
According to Randy Orton, the management then allows him to ditch wrestling and deliver a promo instead. The WWE legend believes that this type of care for the talents was much needed in the promotion.
