During the conference call to promote the WWE United Kingdom Championship Tournament, Triple H commented on whether WWE are interested in New Japan Pro Wrestling superstar Kenny Omega whose contract is reported to expire on January 31st.

ESPN featured Triple H commenting on his interest stating, “As far as a Kenny Omega goes, I’m just interested in talent, period. If somebody is talented as a performer and they wanna come work for the WWE, if they wanna come to the largest platform in the world where they can truly show what they do off on a global basis, then WWE is the choice for them. If they wanna come work for us and they’re very talented, then I’m interested in talking to them, and that’s across the board. To me, anytime anybody questions me on a talent — Am I interested in them? — the fact that you’re questioning me on them means that person is probably pretty talented, so, yes, I’m interested.”
