Triple H breaks silence on WrestleMania controversy - "I think it's a win for everybody"

WWE Chief Content Officer Triple H recently shared his thoughts on WrestleMania moving back to Las Vegas. The company announced that The Show of Shows would return to Vegas in 2026 after a successful showing this year.

On the February 21 edition of SmackDown, The Rock showed up and announced that New Orleans would be the venue for next year's WrestleMania. WWE recently backtracked on the announcement, shifting 'Mania to Vegas while stating that New Orleans would now host Money in the Bank 2026.

This week, during the post-Money in the Bank press conference, Triple H spoke about how WWE was truly becoming a global brand with large-scale events. He noted that this year's reception and the infrastructure were a big factor in bringing the WrestleMania extravaganza back to the city.

"Hard for me to say what the number one decision was, but I think, just the event itself. Vegas, the entertainment capital—to be able to go back in there. It's built for the stuff we do. To be able to go there a second time, the things that we learned this time, how we handled the week there, and everything else, this one will be even better. So it's a great opportunity for us to go in there in a place where people love going to, and will love going to again. We love New Orleans. We love our partnership with them. We were able to grow that partnership with them along this process as well. I think it's a win for everybody." [From 52:30 onwards]

WWE once again shattered records with this year's Money in the Bank. Triple H reported that over 17,000 fans attended the event this weekend in Inglewood, California, breaking the indoor record they had set in January.
