WWE merged with the UFC a couple of months ago. After the merger, the role of Vince McMahon in the company’s creative decisions has diminished. The Executive Chairman has no final say over WWE’s creative decisions, as Triple H is predominantly looking after the creative department in the company.

Recently, WWE Hall of Famer Kevin Nash highlighted a major difference between the creative regimes of Triple H and Vince McMahon. During his Kliq This podcast, the WWE Hall of Famer revealed that Hunter believes in giving opportunities to young talent to see if they are worthy of their spot in the company.

“For so long, people would sit around [in WWE] and wait for Vince to anoint them,” Nash said. “‘I’ll sit here, and sooner or later I’ll get the sword tapped on each side of my shoulder.’ No, man. The sword’s in the stone. You better be the one that can pick that motherf***er up through it,” said Kevin Nash.

For context, the former WWE superstar has referred to a metaphor for the legend of King Arthur and the sword known as Excalibur.

Moreover, the former NWO member believes that it is a great decision by WWE to appoint Triple H as the head of the creative. Nash has great confidence in the creative direction of WWE going forward. Needless to say, the WWE Universe has been highly enjoying and appreciating the product under Triple H’s creative regime.
