Triple H Named WWE EVP, Talent Relations

Triple H is back. 

WWE announced today that Paul Levesque will return to his position as Executive Vice President of Talent Relations.

The company issued the following press release: 

"STAMFORD, Conn.--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- WWE® (NYSE: WWE) today announced that effective immediately, Paul Levesque will resume his executive position as EVP, Talent Relations.

"'I look forward to returning to my prior position as head of Talent Relations. I'm healthy, fired up, and ready to take charge,' said Levesque."

WWE's announcement comes after a Performance Center speech from The Game in which he revealed that he was "back" but failed to give any further details. Triple H had previously been the head of NXT but he stepped back from that position and his role as Executive Vice President of Global Talent Strategy and Development in September of 2021 due to heart issues. 

The NXT brand then underwent a revamp in his absence and Triple H returned to his office job in WWE earlier this year. 

Brandon Thurston of Wrestlenomics reported that Bruce Prichard is no longer Interim Head of Talent Relations following Triple H's appointment and Levesque has taken over what were John Laurinaitis duties' before he was placed on administrative leave.
