2020 – Present                                        No                                                                   Yes

Ricky Starks seemingly has everything that Triple H would want in a wrestler, and it is easy to see how he’d book a lot around the upcoming AEW star. A big part of working in WWE is being charismatic, having a good character, and microphone abilities. They’re all something that Starks has in abundance.

Throughout his time in charge of creative Triple H has relished working with younger, upcoming talent. That was clear when he ran WWE NXT and he managed to take a lot of upcoming stars and independent talent who didn’t have much television experience and turned them into megastars.

AEW Tenure                                       Former WWE Wrestler?                             Realistic Jump To WWE?

2019 – Present                                                         Yes                                                          Yes

Triple H has put a lot of focus on booking women’s wrestling throughout his time in charge of creative, and that is why Britt Baker would thrive working with him. Jade Cargill is an example of how much focus Triple H can put on someone with major star power and Baker certainly ticks that box.

5 Rey Fenix Could Fit In Well With WWE
He’s One Of AEW’s Most Gifted Performers
AEW Tenure                            Former WWE Wrestler?                                       Realistic Jump To WWE?

For a long time WWE struggled to place any focus on lucha style wrestling, with Vince McMahon not putting any effort into that aspect of the business outside of Rey Mysterio. However, Triple H has quickly changed that with the booking he’s implemented on the main roster.

The likes of Dragon Lee and Santos Escobar have become featured parts of the show on a weekly basis, and considering the incredible talent that Rey Fenix has there’s no doubt he’d be a great fit.

4 Jon Moxley’s Current Attitude Would Align With Triple H
His Work Ethic Would Fit Triple H’s Ethos
AEW Tenure                        Former WWE Wrestler?                                       Realistic Jump To WWE?

Jon Moxley Reveals Big Fear Which Led Him Into Treatment - The Illuminerdi

When looking at the wrestlers Triple H pushes the most in WWE outside of Roman Reigns they all have one thing in common – work ethic. The likes of Cody Rhodes, Seth Rollins, and Rhea Ripley all grind hard, and that is why it’s easy to imagine Jon Moxley relishing working in that environment.

His hard-hitting style has an old-school approach that Triple H would also respect, and his ability to commit to a character is something that would lead to him getting big opportunities. However, it’s unlikely at this stage that Moxley will make a return for fans to ever see what that partnership would look like.

3 MJF Is A Natural Storyteller
Triple H Could Do A Lot With His Talent
AEW Tenure                     Former WWE Wrestler?                 Realistic Jump To WWE?

2019 – Present                                      No                                                            Yes

When it comes to wrestlers fans want to see jump from AEW to WWE, MJF is often at the top of the list. A big reason for that is how naturally he would seemingly fit into the company due to the qualities he has as a performer both inside the ring and on the microphone.

Triple H enjoys working with people who have the whole package like MJF, from his gimmick to the fact he tells stories during matches, the former AEW World Champion has it all. It’s easy to see how he would work in WWE’s environment right now where characters thrive.

2 Jay White’s Technical Abilities Would Work In WWE
Triple H Reportedly Tried To Sign Him
AEW Tenure                                 Former WWE Wrestler?             Realistic Jump To WWE?

2022 – Present                                           No                                                      Yes

Jay White was someone that both WWE and AEW were interested in which showcases that Triple H knows he could get the best out of him. Ultimately, he chose to work for AEW, but his run has been hit and miss since joining the company.

NJPW: Why Jay White Is The Best Bullet Club Leader (& Why It’s Kenny Omega)
Bullet Club is one of the best wrestling stables in recent history, but which NJPW star was the better leader: Kenny Omega, or Jay White?

However, White would work well under Triple H as he has a great mixture of fantastic in-ring technique and fantastic promo skills. That combination is something Triple H could work well with, particularly since he’s a brilliant heel.

1 Wardlow Would Become A Main Event Star In WWE
He Has All The Qualities To Thrive
AEW Tenure                                            Former WWE Star?                       Realistic Jump To WWE?

2019 – Present                                                        No                                                       Yes

Wardlow has all the skills to become a major star in professional wrestling, boasting a brilliant look and good powerhouse skills that match his physique. Unfortunately, AEW’s booking of Mr. Mayhem has held him back numerous times even though he had the fan support to be a bigger star.

It’s easy to see why Triple H would be interested in working with him due to the natural tools available. He’s a big man who knows how to work that way, but can also hit amazing aerial moves which is a type of raw talent Triple H could do a lot with.
