Paul 'Triple H' Levesque chats Worlds Collide.
WWE Chief Content Officer Paul 'Triple H' Levesque took to the podium during the Money in the Bank Premium Live Event post-show.
He spoke about WWE x AAA Worlds Collide that took place before Money in the Bank. As he was speaking about the show, he commented on the popularity of Mr. Iguana.
“I think a lot of people are going to be very excited and very happy with what we present with AAA. I think as Konnan mentioned today, we’re not looking to turn it into something different, we’re not looking to change it. We’re looking for authentic lucha libre. We’re looking for what has been so sort of deeply ingrained in the culture in Mexico and around the world. We wanna continue that. We wanna grow it. We want to allow those talent, the incredible talent that are there to have an even bigger platform than they’ve ever had and use the power of WWE production and everything else and the strength of the brand to put behind it and let it become something… I think something that was envisioned when (AAA) first started to go outside of the box to create something different and something new. We wanna amplify that. I think it’s what WWE did in the very beginning and I think it’s to the core of what we do so we will amplify that and you know, talking to the talent today and seeing their excitement, this is gonna be a fun adventure for all of them and for everybody and the people that will win the most are fans. I thought the talent there were incredible today. I love walking into a building like that with talent that are seeing sort of (the) shift of what they’re going to be able to do in front of the world and just seeing this opportunity, they were all so excited and so fired up and just looking to sort of just put their stamp on the rest of the world and I think it was just the beginning. We’re just dipping our toe in the water right now of where this will go and it’s gonna be awesome. Also, I never knew iguanas were so much fun. So I think that will be an amazing, amazing -- I think kids are gonna want iguanas everywhere."
Mr. Iguana was on the winning end of a trios match at Worlds Collide and was shown on screen at Money in the Bank in the front row.
