Triple H Claims Women Pick Up Wrestling Faster Than Men at WWE Performance Center
Triple H just gave major props to the women of WWE, revealing that they’re outpacing the men when it comes to picking up the sport.
Speaking at the MIT Sloan Sports Analytics Conference, The Game was asked about WWE’s women’s division and how it continues to grow. While he praised the company’s top stars, he made it clear that the next generation of female wrestlers is developing at an insane pace—faster than their male counterparts.
“I will say this, we have a performance center in Orlando, Florida. We have 100 to 120 athletes at any given time training in there on a day-to-day basis. I’m not sure exactly what the mix is, but a large percentage of women, large percentage of men. We have an NIL program that recruits across college athletics on every level. So women are a big focus of what we’re doing leading to the future and how we’re training and getting them up,” Triple H explained.
Then, he dropped the bombshell observation: “Across the board, the women pick this up way faster than men do [laughs]. It’s an amazing thing.”
He credited Shawn Michaels, who oversees the program, and pointed out how quickly the women are making it to TV. “We’re getting these women that come in, start training with us at ground zero, just like the men, and six months in, eight months in, nine months in, he’s putting those women on TV already live, and the guys are down here, and I’m not sure why that is. It may be just [they’re] smarter, whatever that is. But it resonates that way, and it’s incredible to see that sort of, ‘Here you go. Just go at it.’ It’s incredible to watch it happen.”
With WWE’s NIL program pulling in top college athletes and the Performance Center churning out new stars, the future of WWE’s women’s division looks stronger than ever.
