Triple H Says Edge Wants To Wrestle In NXT

Triple H Says Edge Wants To Wrestle In NXT

Triple H recently conducted a media call ahead of NXT Takeover: Vengeance Day.

Triple H was asked about Edge’s recent appearance on NXT TV and his future with the brand including the possibility of him challenging for the NXT Title.

“I think that Edge’s return has been done really really well. He really is in a place in his mind where he wants to build young and just get them rolling in different directions,” Triple H explained. “He has been talking to me prior to coming back the first time at the Royal Rumble over a year ago [about] coming to NXT and not only stepping in the ring and talking but stepping in the ring and performing. Prior to him even coming to The Rumble, he sort of gave me, ‘Man, here’s my list. I’d like to work with this guy. I’d like to work with him. I would love to come here and work with this person’ It’s just where he’s at.

“That youth is exciting. Their enthusiasm, their passion for this, their drive, their desire and I think that when he came to NXT, seems like months ago now but it was two weeks ago, just knowing him so well, I could see the smile on his face all day as he went around just talking to these guys and girls. It’s awesome to see, so I don’t think any of it is beyond the realm of possibility. You saw it last year with Charlotte. I think you see it this year with him playing things across the board, whether that be [Drew] McIntyre, or Roman [Reigns] and / or Finn [Balor], Pete [Dunne].

“I think that all those things are on the table, but one way or the other, depending on where WrestleMania goes beyond that, I think there’s ability for him to come to NXT and sort of use his star power to one, help them and kind of elevate but also for him to have sort of that final few chapters of his career the way he wants to have them and with the people he wants to have them with. So I’m excited for that, and luckily, he’s got something he’s not only willing to do but really pushing hard to do.”

It has been recently reported that the NXT Title will be defended at WrestleMania 37 weekend. Triple H gave his thoughts on NXT talent being featured at WrestleMania.

“My thoughts on it are that it’s great,” Triple H stated. “You come into the place with WrestleMania where with so many brands, a big roster of RAW, big roster of SmackDown [and] a large roster of NXT, that you get to just a certain place where how big and how long do you want these shows to be.

“Everybody is sort of putting their chips on the table, so to speak, for their spot in Mania, as always. That’s the big spot of the year. Not everybody can be in those spots, obviously, and I think everybody understands that, but that’s the battle, and it’s a balance is my opinion. I just think that you have to balance that out, but I love having them be a part of it.

“If you tell me that NXT gets to be a part of the biggest stage in the game and the biggest spectacle, it’s phenomenal. It just helps the brand, and it helps continue to drive it forward. It’s just a matter of how much can you fit into WrestleMania, now weekend. What is the benefit to having its own platform of an NXT takeover that week? It’s a balance, but I love it if we can do it.”
