Former WWE Champion reflects on how Triple H is different from Vince McMahon

Former WWE Champion, CM Punk returned to the wrestling promotion under Triple H's regime last year after nearly a decade of being away. The Second City Saint recently opened up about the major differences between his current boss and Vince McMahon.

During a recent conversation with Jimmy Traina of Sports Illustrated, CM Punk claimed that McMahon made people wait outside his office, which is not the case with Paul Levesque (Triple H). The Best in the World added that Hunter is more approachable and hands-on with the talent as he wanted everyone, and eventually, the wrestling promotion, to do well.

"I think Vince [McMahon] would make people wait outside his office. There'd be like a line, you know what I mean, and people would be intimidated by that. And I don't get that read off of Triple H at all. I don't see people waiting outside his office. I never had that with Vince. I would always just like go in and ask him a question if I needed to. Never trying to waste his time, never trying to waste Triple H's time, but I see him [Paul Levesque] being a lot more hands-on with people and approachable and accessible. He wants everybody to be their best because he wants the show to be the best. So there's no leftover 80s macho kind of weird energy going on," he said. [From 13:47 to 14:37]
