At tonight’s WWE Bad Blood 2024 post-show Paul Levesque (Triple H) addressed recent discussion regarding representation on PLEs.

A topic of conversation amongst fans as of late has been the absence of Black male wrestlers on premium live event cards.
Levesque was asked about the representation, to which he responded:

“I don’t see the difference in anybody. I don’t see the color, I don’t see the nationality, I don’t see any of it. I just see talent. I don’t see the difference between men and women. I see talent.
“We tell stories with those talent, how they can handle those stories and how they can represent those stories, and how we can bring those stories forward.
“I don’t keep track of any of that. I do what’s relevant and what’s the best in storytelling and what’s being delivered the best, and that’s what goes.
“No different than the men and the women, who main events. Whatever the biggest stories are, that’s where we go.”

Elsewhere in the conversation, he spoke excitedly about the upcoming storytelling opportunities once WWE transitions Raw to Netflix in January 2025.
He did not however comment on the length of the show (since Raw is changing to two hours on USA for the rest of this year), remarking instead that when he finds out, he will let us know.
