5 Things that Triple H does better than Vince McMahon

High time for the proverbial ‘passing of the torch’?

#1 Knows how to snuff out the competition

Talents from all over the world are seeking NXT’s shores

This one may appear slightly incredulous to some of you, given how Vince (in)famously put WCW to rest once and for all. However in today’s Indie-dominated climate of pro-wrestling, dealing with the competition doesn’t quite bear the same hue anymore.

There isn’t one major company vying for ratings with the WWE on television, as WCW once did, but instead, many smaller promotions that offer something a mainstream monopoly like the WWE has deviated from – a wrestling-centric product.

This is where the genius of Triple H shines through unfettered.

The work that he has done with NXT seems to be long term answer to this conundrum that has plagued the WWE for quite a while now. A product that would please the hardcore fans is intrinsically at odds with one that would appeal to the mainstream masses, and Triple H seems to have addressed that with the success of NXT.

It is in NXT that marketability, that has also proven to be transferable to the main roster, goes hand-in-hand with excellence in the ring. To put it in a nutshell, this is something Vince McMahon has been long unable, or unwilling, to achieve.

And it is in this one aspect of Triple H’s stewardship that he clearly one-betters Vince McMahon.
