The WWE-UFC merger under TKO Group Holdings was completed on Wednesday, September 12. Executives from both sides of the companies were present at the NYSE building to make the historic announcement. Later, multiple reports revealed that the Endeavor deal led to higher-ups in the company receiving major bonuses, including Paul Levesque, better known as Triple H.

Paul, Chief Content Officer of WWE, received a $5 million bonus. Triple H will continue to oversee creative control of the business despite the snub from a position on the new Board of Directors. Moreover, Nick Khan, who presided as President, gained triple that amount with a hefty sum of $15 million.

Along with them, Kevin Dunn, Executive Producer, and Frank Riddick, Chief Financial Officer, obtained $7 million and $5 million, respectively. All in all, it was one of the biggest days in the company’s history as it finalized the long-awaited deal. Fans can certainly look forward to more associations and partnerships between the WWE and UFC soon.

Furthermore, it marks the first time in almost four decades that Vince McMahon no longer holds major power in the WWE. However, he will assume his role as Executive Chairman of the promotion. Vince returned earlier this year to his position despite seemingly retiring last year due to his alleged hush-money payments coming to light.

Endeavor CEO Ari Emanuel and WWE CCO Triple H were spotted together at New York Fashion Week’s event. Fans online captured the WWE legend sitting alongside Ari and Amazon owner Jeff Bezos. As many may know, Endeavor acquired WWE, which merged with the UFC under TKO Group Holdings.

Triple H attended the event, which also saw Maxxine Dupri walk the runway for the first time. Therefore, the King of Kings may have been present to support the 26-year-old superstar. The WWE Universe was jubilant to see HHH be a part of a major show among the biggest names in the world.

As of last year, Triple H has climbed the executive ladder in the wrestling promotion. He finally became the Head of Creative after years of putting in the effort in NXT. Needless to say, Paul Levesque has become one of the most important figures in the past few months.
