How to become a WWE Superstar:
Triple H has told Yahoo Sports what he looks for when hiring WWE stars...
"I will take someone with charisma and desire over anything else. It's hard to teach someone how to be charismatic. You ever met that person who has something about them? That's the biggest factor, I think. Nobody pays to just see a wrestler. You pay to see superstars."
