"I do not give my respect very easily" - Triple H says 27-year-old WWE Superstar has earned his respect
During a recent WWE press conference in Las Vegas for Crown Jewel, Triple H said Logan Paul has earned his respect.
The Game has been an integral part of WWE ever since he debuted for the company in 1995. Over the years, he became a part-time wrestler and poured his time and energy into developing a brand for the upcoming and future superstars of the industry called NXT.
Earlier this year, Triple H became the creative head of the company and was later promoted to Chief Content Office. After his promotion, the 14-time World Champion made several groundbreaking changes and rehired superstars who were let go by the old regime.
Logan Paul recently signed a deal with the company and had two matches at WrestleMania 38 and SummerSlam. During the recent WWE Press Conference for Crown Jewel, Triple H said Logan has earned his respect and praised The YouTuber's recent performance in the company:
"Logan was totally different. Logan was a guy that came in, talked to us about it, and as soon as we talked to him about doing something, man he started to put in the work... When I saw him in the ring for the first time, he blew my mind. I saw him do it again, after that blew my mind. This is the guy as I said earlier earned my respect. In this business, I do not give my respect very easily. He has earned that and its why he is here," said The Game [From 44:34 to 45:18]
