Triple H, a huge WWE figure and a Hall of Fame inductee (Class of 2025), recently reacted to a video of Kyle Larson celebrating victories in his trademark entrance style. He said that he had never thought of doing it with wine.
Triple H, who was born as Paul Michael Levesque, is one of the household names in professional wrestling, and he is also one of the top executives at WWE. Levesque was born on July 27, 1969, and was training as a wrestler during the early 1990s before eventually rising to prominence in WWE during the Attitude Era as a founding member of D-Generation X. During his nearly thirty-year in-ring career, Levesque became a 14-time world champion, winning the WWE Championship nine times and the World Heavyweight Championship five times.
