Over the last few months, a lot of work that Triple H has done with NXT has been undone. Most of his hires and people working under him have been released, including the likes of William Regal and Road Dogg. With the rebranding of the brand into NXT 2.0, it seemed to be a complete overhaul with too many changes in a short period.
One former NXT Champion who was released not too long ago is Killer Kross, fka Karrion Kross in WWE. While he had an underwhelming run on the main roster before his release, his run with the company’s third brand was successful and he is one of the few two-time NXT Champions.
Speaking to CBS Sports’ Shakiel Mahjouri, Kross praised Triple H for being a natural leader and having several great qualities:
Kross explained that the talent wanted to perform well, not only for the fans but out of respect for The Game and Shawn Michaels:
It only confirms the impact and legacy that Triple H has left behind in his years handling NXT.
What is Triple H’s role with NXT going forward?
It seems unclear as to what WWE has planned in store for The King Of Kings going forward. Ever since his cardiac incident last year, Triple H hasn’t returned to his role in NXT.
In that time, Vince McMahon launched the overhaul of NXT into NXT 2.0 and put Bruce Prichard as one of the creative heads of the brand. It’s a different direction for the brand that has now been re-labeled as developmental - a decision that hasn’t sat well with many WWE fans.
While there was a report about Triple H being disappointed with all that has happened, there hasn’t been a word from him yet about his thoughts on the situation.
