“I’m taking that spot,” Triple H finally breaks silence on Edge leaving WWE to join AEW 

WWE delivered an incredible show at Gainbridge Fieldhouse in Indianapolis this week at Fastlane. After the premium live event, the company held a special press conference. During the conference, WWE Chief Content Officer Triple H answered some significant questions. The Game was also asked about his reaction to Edge leaving the company to join All Elite Wrestling.

Triple H said it was the right time for him to leave as it would create opportunities for young talents. He said, “But when they see him walk away and go somewhere else, they’re like, ‘Damn right, I’m taking that spot.’ That creates opportunity. Everybody will step up their game to fill that role.” Furthermore, The Game revealed that there is a line of young talents, just like Edge was when he came to WWE.

Furthermore, Triple H revealed the reason behind Adam Copeland joining All Elite Wrestling. He said, “Time. The time was right for him. The time was right for us. I think he had an amazing career and an amazing sendoff here. And I think he felt like he had done what there was to do.”

The WWE CCO wished Adam Copeland luck in initiating a new phase of his career. He also stated that there are no hard feelings or animosity between Adam and the company. Moreover, he praised the WWE Hall of Famer, saying he did what was right for him and his family.

Triple H ended the press conference on a positive note after addressing Edge’s departure, saying WWE is going to continue to grow. The Game also revealed that he texted Edge and told him that he is happy for him and proud of him.

In the press conference held after Fastlane, Triple H went on to appreciate John Cena’s efforts. The WWE CCO said, “He’s at an age [where] he’s doing a lot of other things. I would just say this to everybody out there: revel in it. Because the appreciation level that John should get is off the charts.”
