Ric Flair pitches WWE’s next creative head after Triple H

Posted: Apr 23rd 2026 By: Shounak Chakribarti

Appearing on the latest episode of The Ariel Helwani Show, Ric Flair pitched The Undertaker taking over WWE’s creative head role after Triple H.

Speaking with Ariel Helwani about The Undertaker’s career and his current work as a booker for AAA in Mexico. Helwani asked Flair about his thoughts on it. The 16-time World Champion addressed the current situation and pitched The Undertaker taking over Triple H’s role in WWE if he is ever let go by the promotion.

“If they let go Hunter [Triple H] and Taker [The Undertaker] is physically able to do it, he should be the next head of creative.”

However, when asked if Flair believes Triple H should leave WWE, he responded, “No, no, no. I’m saying if something happens with Hunter, because, you know, he has some very serious health issues. You know that, right? Nothing’s guaranteed.”

In the same appearance, he also opened up about his relationship with Triple H. “Well, it’s good, I mean, we exchange pleasantries, but here’s the deal with Triple H. He did do much for me. He did so much for me after [Eric] Bischoff destroyed me. And when he brought me into the company, which he did, I think more than Vince [McMahon] did, we did Evolution, which restored my confidence because Bischoff had completely killed me. So, I can’t get mad at him. Our relationship is not the same, but he has a lot on his plate. Running the WWE and being in charge of this and that, constantly being scrutinized.”
