WWE Had Plans For Triple H At WrestleMania 38

Last year Triple H unfortunately had to undergo surgery after suffering a cardiac event, and there were a lot of rumors going around regarding his future. Yesterday Triple H put all of the rumors to rest when he confirmed that he is officially retired from in-ring competition.

During a recent interview with ESPN’s Stephen A. Smith, The Game talked about his thoughts on his in-ring career, and he also revealed that he had conversations with Vince McMahon about stepping in the ring at WrestleMania 38.

“I was already at a place in my career, as far as the in-ring goes, where I was comfortable being done and finished. If the right thing came along, I hadn’t really said much, but if the right thing came along and they wanted me to do it…I had a conversation with Vince McMahon about doing something at WrestleMania this year in Dallas. We had talked about and there were plans for. Obviously, when this happened, it shut all that down. As far as the schedule, WWE is an intense place, it’s 24/7 and you’re running, running, running. It put things in perspective for me.”

Triple H didn’t provide further details on who he might have faced at WrestleMania, but it’s interesting to think about what could have been. WrestleMania 38 will air on Saturday, April 2nd and Sunday, April 3rd.
