Triple H shares message following controversial WWE Bad Blood event

Triple H shared a message on social media today following WWE Bad Blood last night in Atlanta, Georgia. The premium live event featured the return of The Rock, an appearance by Goldberg, and a Hell in Cell Match between CM Punk and Drew McIntyre.

Following Bad Blood, The King of Kings took to X (fka Twitter) to send a message to fans and included a video of himself and the mayor of Atlanta, Andre Dickens. He noted that the show was a massive success and thanked the city for hosting Bad Blood last night.

"Thank you to @andreforatlanta and the entire city of Atlanta for hosting #WWEBadBlood last night. A very successful show across the board, and we can’t wait to be back soon," he said.

The premium live event flirted with a few controversies. Many fans wanted to see the Hell in a Cell Match between Punk and McIntyre main event last night's show, but in the end, it was The Bloodline versus Cody Rhodes and Roman Reigns in the main event. The Rock also returned in the closing moments of the show after the babyfaces emerged victorious, but only came to the entrance ramp, merely made a few gestures, and left.

Triple H also introduced the new Crown Jewel Championship during last night's show.

Triple H reacts to criticism following WWE Bad Blood

WWE Chief Content Officer Triple H reacted to a major criticism following Bad Blood last night.

Speaking at the press conference following the premium live event last night, the veteran was asked to discuss how the promotion was booking black performers. The Game claimed that he didn't see color and was only focused on telling stories with the talent in the company.

"Everybody gets the opportunity. I don't see the difference in anybody. I don't see the color. I don't see the nationality. I don't see any of it. I just see talent. I don't see the difference between men and women. We tell stories with those talent. How they can handle those stories and how they can represent those stories and how we can bring those stories forward," Triple H said. [23:30 - 23:52]
