Over the years fans have seen some epic matches at WrestleMania, and Triple H has been involved in some of the biggest matches in the history of the big event. However, Triple H officially announced his retirement at WrestleMania 38 due to health issues as he underwent a procedure in September of 2021 following a cardiac event.
During an appearance on the Pat McAfee Show, Triple H was asked about the possibility of returning to the ring for one more match, and he indicated that it’s simply not something that’s going to happen.
“No, I don’t think so. I don’t think I should be out there taking bumps. I have a jumpstarter. That’s all good. That’s a backup system if anything goes bad in your life, which could happen to anybody at any given time. I have a backup system. You don’t want to unplug the wires.”
Even though The Game’s in-ring career is over he made it clear that he has no regrets and felt that he was at a place where he was ready to retire before health issues forced him to hang up his boots.
“It’s funny, people will be like, ‘Oh, I’m sorry, I forgot you can’t.’ I’m totally good with that. I rode until the wheels fell off. Almost literally. I’m great with that. I was at a place where I should have been retiring anyway. I was at a place in my mind where I wanted to be done with it. The last year, right before this all happened, I was asked to be at WrestleMania for two days. ‘I need you, you can work with anybody you want.’ I said, ‘I don’t think I want to do it.’ ‘Please think about it. Let’s just do it. Please think about it.’ I thought about it and was going to go back and say, ‘I’m not doing it,’ and then I had to not do it. I was already there. I’m good with it. I have zero regrets.”
