WWE Executive Vice President of Talent, Live Events and Creative - Paul ‘Triple H’ Levesque - believes that India has a lot of talent to offer when it comes to professional wrestling and WWE will not mind setting up a local performance centre in order to help the Indian prospects in the future. Mentioning India as an example, he said if the country had five good prospects, they would be brought to the WWE Performance Centre in Orlando, but if it had 50 hopefuls, talent scouts and trainers might take trips abroad in order to set up a training infrastructure for the local athletes.
