Triple H was asked about young talents like Lars Sullivan being put on cards with great workers like @KingRicochet , @JohnnyGargano , etc. Triple H said that's how they learn and get better, and that makes them step up or get left behind @WrestlingInc
On the impending expansion of #WWE into international markets for potential touring brands, Triple H brought up the term "global localization" and noted that his vision was to make an easier path for kids in other countries to become a WWE Superstar. #NXTTakeOver

.@TripleH confirms that @KingRicochet "tweaked" himself a little bit in Paris. He's not injured but they pulled him from the Belgium show as a precaution ahead of Takeover. He's fine.#TakeoverMediaCall

Triple H said that the UK Tournament isn't airing live because of the availability of Royal Albert Hall but the only dates available were a Monday and Tuesday, which is obviously problematic. It worked out better to tape it @WrestlingInc
Triple says he wasn't involved in the decision to bring AOP up to the main roster without Paul Ellering, but he's looking for the right thing in NXT to bring him back.

.@TripleH says that if we want to know if @ShawnMichaels is going to wrestle in NXT then we should speak to Shawn Michaels. He's the only one that knows and there is always smoke and fire around an HBK in-ring return.#TakeoverMediaCall

On current main roster talents being sent to #NXT to "freshen up", Triple H said he'd love to bring some guys back and that it would be a positive for everybody @WrestlingInc
