WWE Chief Content Officer Paul “Triple H” Levesque appeared on Stephanieโs Places and discussed various topics, including his retirement announcement made at WrestleMania 38.
Triple H said, โThe moment in Dallas (at WrestleMania 38), Vince (McMahon) asked me to go open the show. The idea of going and putting my boots in the ring was not what he had in mind. Like, โWhy do you wanna โ I gottaโ open the show with a downer,โ and I said, โI donโt see it as a downer. I see it as kind of a triumphant moment. Iโm back.โ
