The discussion of WWE holding a big for pay-per-view in the UK is always something that comes up whenever it’s time for WWE to travel back to the land of the Royals. Triple H recently spoke to Express Sport how about this issue revealing that perhaps the SummerSlam in 1992 at Wembley Stadium wasn’t as big of a success as some people thought:

I always hear about Wembley, I always hear it was such a massive success. It was not. I will just say that from a business standpoint, it was not. That’s why we didn’t come back and that’s why we’re still trying to figure it out.

However, Triple H goes on to say that with the success of events like Super Show-Down, it is a certainty that a stadium in the UK will definitely get its opportunity to shine when the time is right:

As far as the ability to have larger Pay-Per-Views and larger events, yeah. I think you see that happening now. I just came back from Australia, 70,000 people in the stadium. I think those things become clearer and clearer as we’re experimenting with other things… So when the time is right, absolutely.

While this is more of the same “just be patient,” verbiage that we usually get from WWE on this situation, I’m more inclined to believe that we will actually see this soon with Triple H at the helm because of all of the great things he has done to expand WWE on a global scale so far especially with the NXT UK brand. Time will truly tell I suppose.
