Triple H Reveals Solving Creative Differences With CM Punk After Reaching An Impasse

CM Punk's return to the WWE marked a defining moment in the Triple H era. The former WWE champion making a return at his home at the Allstate Arena was something no one ever thought about. Given his past friction with Triple H and their well-recorded matches, his return was out of the world. The WWE CCO opened up on how it has been working with Punk and also reflected on the way they handled their creative differences and worked together despite their past issues.

“We’ve had a couple of moments since his return, there was one moment where he’d return and they told him something creatively and they told me, ‘He does not like this.’ I was like, ‘Okay, I’ll talk to him.’ Went and talked to him. ‘What’s going on?’ I told him the creative and he was like, ‘That’s good, whatever.’ I was like, ‘I know you don’t like it. Everybody’s told me. Let’s be open.’ He complained about what it was and I said, ‘Let’s go sit and talk about it and come up with something good.’

"That sort of changed, it was like a paradigm shift for us relationship-wise, and now, it’s a funny thing for me to say, sitting down and being collaborative with CM Punk is one of my favorite things in TV because he shares a very similar view at the end of the day of the business as I do,” Triple H said during a recent interview with High Performance, as quoted by ewrestlingnews.
