WWE Chief Creative Officer Paul “Triple H” Levesque has given a massive vote of confidence to the current roster of WWE superstars, stating that he believes the talent pool is so deep that it could rival the legendary “Ruthless Aggression” era. That period, which ran from roughly 2002 to 2008, is widely regarded as one of the most star-studded times in the company’s history, featuring the rise of icons like John Cena, Brock Lesnar, Randy Orton, and Batista. For Triple H, who was an active competitor during that era, the comparison is a significant one, and it highlights his belief in the long-term health and success of the company’s talent development system.
Speaking on the Countdown to WWE WrestlePalooza pre-show, Triple H was asked about the depth of the current roster and did not hold back in his praise.
“I actually absolutely believe that. The beautiful thing about the roster that we have right now is that all of the names that you said are stars that have been doing this for a long time and are at the top of their game. But for every one of those you mentioned, there is a Bron Breakker breaking through underneath them, there is a Bronson Reed breaking through underneath them, there is a Gunther. There is a new crop of talent, right? There is a Rhea Ripley, who, in the big scheme of things, is fairly new here, right? There’s a Stephanie Vaquer. Then on the flip side of that, when you get to those talent, there is a Trick Williams, there is an Oba Femi, right? There is an Ethan page, there is a Sol Ruca, all of these names that are the future. So not only is it deep at the top, it’s deep in the middle, and the people coming up, but it’s deep underneath that there is no stopping this roster. This roster will be on fire for years to come.“
