Triple H has become a topic of discussion ever since fans noticed the storylines taking a hit while the prices continue to rise.

TKO’s acquisition of WWE came with the consequence that ticket prices would skyrocket since TKO is more focused on profit and revenue.

As a result of this, fans have taken to social media to complain about the prices. In fact, the prices did not go down even when the arenas had empty seats. In fact, WWE’s distributor is implementing a media blackout within a 50-mile radius of Allegiant Stadium in Las Vegas for WrestleMania 42 to boost ticket sales.

Triple H will take the fall when the situation worsens

On The Coach and Bro, Jonathan Coachman explained that TKO is no longer able to go to podcasts and claim that WWE is selling out arenas. So, when the time comes for someone to take the fall, it would be Triple H.

Think about this, Tommy. It’s all well and good when you’re signing billion-dollar deals, multiples. But the minute it starts going the other way, the minute that Shapiro and Ari can’t go on Pat McAfee and talk about how much money they’re making or, you know, biggest house ever or all this kind of stuff, that really is starting to infuriate fans as well. Fans are tired of contributing to the biggest house, but yet there’s still 25% of the seats that are empty because they’re too expensive. So, think about it. If that starts to go the other way, who takes the hit for that? [snorts] It’s not going to be Nick Khan. Is not, you know, Nick Khan has positioned himself with Zufa Boxing, with the UFC, and with the WWE. So, if something goes down, it’s going to be Triple H that takes a hit. It’s not going to be Nick Khan.

And that’s why we’ve constantly said, Vince thought that by the end of 2026, Triple H would not have his spot, and he’s standing on that.
