Triple H Dodges Questions About Vince McMahon Allegations

Well, what did everyone expect?

The 2024 WWE Royal Rumble went down last night (Sat., Jan. 27, 2024) inside Tropicana Field in St. Petersburg, Fla, and in the iconic match, former UFC fighter CM Punk lost to Cody Rhodes in the final moments (watch highlights).

After the mega event, Chief Content Officer Paul “Triple H” Levesque attended the Royal Rumble post-show press conference to speak about the event. During the press conference, Triple H was asked about the absolutely disgusting allegations against father-in-law, and former WWE founder Vince McMahon.

Triple H would dodge the question like a clothesline.

“I’m gonna do exactly what you would expect me to do here,” Triple H said. “Look, we just had an amazing week. A ten-year, $5 billion Netflix deal, The Rock joining our board. We just sold out the Royal Rumble, put 48,000 people in Tropicana Field. I choose to focus on the positive. Yes, there’s a negative, but I want to focus on that and just keep it to that.”

Obviously, Triple H can’t say much about the ongoing investigation, and he has to tip-toe around completely trashing his father-in-law, but it felt like a perfect opportunity to say something of substance especially because McMahon is accused of sex trafficking and rape.

Triple H was then asked what is being done to make sure people in positions of power can’t take advantage of employees under them.

“I’ll give you the most generalized answer that I can. Everything possible,” Triple H said. “That is a very important thing to us, a very important topic to us. It’s as simple as everything possible.”

On Fri. McMahon resigned from Executive chairman of TKO Group Holdings and all roles relating to WWE after he was accused of allegations of trafficking and sexual assault.
