WWE: Triple H on Possible Returns for Sasha Banks & Others, Gable Steveson Update, Roderick Strong Injury

Triple H Comments on Potential WWE Returns for Sasha Banks, Braun Strowman, & Bray Wyatt

Ariel Helwani held a recent interview with Paul “Triple H” Levesque. One of the topics discussed included Levesque’s thoughts on the potential of Sasha Banks, Braun Strowman, and Bray Wyatt making their returns to WWE within the near future.

On the topic of Banks’ potential return, Levesque stated:

“Time will tell. I think in a lot of ways communication breakdowns are terrible. There was a communication breakdown there, for whatever reason. Starting back up that communication is not a difficult process but it can be a process and you have to go through the process. But she’s an unbelievably talented woman who can do just about anything she wants, it just comes down to what does she want to do now.

She’s an unbelievable performer that I believe in with everything I have.”

On the topic of Strowman’s potential return, Levesque stated:

“Braun Strowman, we’ll see. He’s a polarizing person a little bit sometimes in the business but for a guy his size, what he brings to the table, he’s an amazing athlete.

If this is what he wants to do at the highest of levels, then I would like nothing more than to give him another shot.”

On the topic of Wyatt’s potential return, Levesque stated:

“One of the most – I mean this in the best way possible – crazy, creative people I’ve ever been around. Mind just never stops thinking of creative but it’s like being in a whirlwind of stuff. So without the harness and without someone to point the tornado, it’s just all over the place. He’s a victim of his own mind and creative but I love working with him.”
