Since Vince McMahon confirmed his unforeseen WWE retirement, Triple H has expectedly put his vision into action by introducing several new faces and storylines on RAW and SmackDown.
Vince Russo noted that Triple H’s booking decisions were a far cry from Vince McMahon’s creative approach as he believed the former CEO was no longer concerned about the quality of WWE’s content.
Triple H might have started strong, but Russo still felt that the new boss still had much to learn about the main roster. The former WWE writer wasn’t a fan of the NXT model, as he explained below:
“The ratings aren’t going to matter” - Vince Russo opens up on the potential long-term plans of Triple H’s WWE
Vince Russo added that WWE doesn’t care about TV ratings as they are guaranteed to rake in money from lucrative deals with major networks and other avenues.
Russo opined that WWE eventually wished to move away from television programming and look at having a more settled future with streaming services.
As WWE isn’t under threat of losing much financially, the veteran writer explained that the promotion wouldn’t be too bothered about how the shows are written as long as the big names appear every week.
It will be interesting to see if the promotion potentially transitions from television to streaming services in the coming years under the new management.
