Triple H recently retired from professional wrestling after years of being in the company. The real-life Paul Levesque suffered a cardiac event back in September 2021, following which he took some time out of the ring. The Game had a rough time trying to cope with his condition.

“I’ve watched the Stephen A. Smith interview with Triple H, obviously bro it was a very very life-threatening situation he went through. We saw him getting emotional and choked up, that was the HHH I knew, that was the guy I knew and I knew this was very real,” said Russo. (57:50 onwards)
