WWE Chief Content Officer Paul Levesque, aka Triple H, took the time while WWE was in town on Friday to check out the International Pro Wrestling Hall of Fame, housed inside MVP Arena. The museum has been featured on the now defunct A & E series, WWE's Most Wanted Treasures. The fan within the "Cerebral Assassin" was impressed with the museum. Levesque has long wanted to build a physical location for WWE's own Hall of Fame, and one day may finally get that opportunity.
