Michael Cole makes Triple H break character during rare WWE appearance

WWE Chief Content Officer Triple H showed up at the SummerSlam kickoff show this week. The event started the official countdown to WWE SummerSlam this year which will be a two-night event for the first time ever.

The Fanatics Fest in New York City was the venue for the SummerSlam kickoff show. The event featured several top stars such as John Cena, CM Punk, Randy Orton, Seth Rollins, Jey Uso, and more. Several WWE Superstars were at the event for autograph signings and photo ops. The Biggest Party of the Summer is scheduled for August 2-3, 2025, at the MetLife Stadium in New Jersey.

During the show, Hunter came out to do his signature water spit for the fans. The hosts for the night, Michael Cole and Peter Rosenberg, also joined in on the act. However, Cole started hilariously imitating Triple H just before the moment. Hunter couldn't control himself and broke out laughing. He had to spit out the water to make fun of the WWE announcer. The three men then tried again and went through the water spit.
