A few days back, former VP of All Sponsorship Sale at WWE, Rob Kligman appeared in an exclusive interview with our Essentially Rasslin Podcast. He recalled the time when he worked with Triple H in NXT. Moreover, he also praised HHH for his current work in WWE.

Kligman said, “Yes, I think you got somebody who, what we talked about with him being part of NXT and sort of creating something out of nothing. He’s got years of experience of being a superstar and I think that makes a big difference, being to reflect back to his days of being a superstar in one of the greatest tag teams probably ever to live. And being able to bring that information and that creativeness to today’s landscape.”

He added, “Because you have to remember also, people are getting their content in so many different ways and a lot of times it’s very snackable content. They want it quick, they want it on their platform. So you have to distribute that across YouTube, Facebook, Snapchat, etc to make sure you’re getting that fan and getting that fan as a younger person as well.”

Indeed, what Kligman said is true as The Game has made a vast difference in the product of WWE. One of the most important aspects of current programming is Triple H’s hidden storylines on the show.
