TRIPLE H DISCUSSES HIS BOOKING PHILOSOPHY, CONNECTING WITH WWE FAN BASE

In an interview with Sports Illustrated, Paul Levesque shared his booking philosophy and connecting with the fan base. 

"Writing this stuff is a feel. You can analyze stories and how they come together, but how does it make you feel? If you can make people feel those stories, they’re going to be invested in the product. That’s how we try to approach, find that ultimate emotional place for the talent and the characters and the stories they’re in. We don’t take our fan base for granted. And the way our talent operates is different from other generations. They want to go out there and put on the best possible show they can. A lot of these kids are already invested–they grew up wanting to do this. And if they didn’t, they fell in love with it by learning from people who grew up wanting to be in this business, and that’s how they learned the respect for it. To me, that’s what makes you successful. That connection with our fan base, that’s a big part of our core." 

He even noted how even though Vince McMahon is no longer involved with the creative process, his fingerprints still remain across the company. 

"Vince taught me years ago, you put yourself in the seats and you’ll never go wrong. You’ve always got to maintain that perspective. I started out as a fan. Book what people want to feel and see."
