To hear shawn tell people to leave him completely alone so he can recover, is the sign of a real friend
As many times H saved him from OD'ing, this was due recompense
Their not friends they are BROTHERS 1000% love them both 2 goats 🐐
Of a real friend yes
It's also the sign that does really something bad wrong that's going on
@@benjaminvalenti1242 Steroids abuse wrecked HHH body. He might be clean now, but it did took a tool on his body
Ran into him one day in a store in Boston around 2003-2004. I turned down an aisle and almost bumped into giant HHH. I was like "oh hey man! I'm a big fan". Dude was WICKED NICE and totally down to Earth. He was already a legend by that time, and just was a super nice, regular acting guy
that's awesome! man I'd love to meet Triple H
That's awesome man
Most of the wrestlers are good people not in the ring there are several instances where they brake character because of a young fan ring side
That would be so cool. Meeting the McMahon's is on my bucket list. Their efforts got me through good and bad times, I could always count on wrestling to cheer me up.
Wow! And around that time 03-04 he was a mega heel so that’s cool for him to be super nice.
To know that he never drank never smoked especially coming up through attitude era, just shows how dedicated he was to his body of work. He lived for this business and I just hope we can appreciate that ❤
Not to mention he was friends with Lemmy 😂
He juiced during those years specially when he struggled with his weight that’s why his heart failed also his genetics
@@elmulato7038 i was gonna say juice as well sure genetics had part but he was on alot of juice at one time his size nearly double what he was when he started wwe in only a few years
@@timmydgrows4729absolutely. He got massive at one point was quite obvious he was on some serious gear.
Guy was enormous. He was juiced up for a lot of those years which is terrible for anyone but especially with a heart condition
He is really fortunate that his doctors caught this in time to save his life. So many people did not catch this kind of thing in time and are no longer with us. It also put into perspective what's truly important to him.
Yup, that's what also roids can do to your cardiovascular system
'fortunate'.... well, being insanely rich helps
@@FcoEnriquePerezhis heart issue was because of steroids or COVID vaccine??
@@adibutt1171 It could be due to steroids usage, or it could be because of his family history with heart problems, but I know for a fact that it had nothing to do with COVID.
Don't be scared about him, money talks!!
Kudos to Ariel Helwani for letting him tell his story without much interruption
He knows when to listen. That's a good interviewer.
Ya I’m much more interested in hearing Trip’s story than anything Ariel might have to say 🤷🏻♂️
Indeed, that's skill is underrated
We see how FAKE these STEROID users REALLY are when they finally can't take their STEROIDS because they got ARRESTED/in PRISON or the doctors tell them to come off because of health PROBLEMS...there goes those FAKE STEROID muscles they been HIDING behind!
ROIDERS are FAKES!
Stay natural buddy!
It's 1 of his BIGGEST strengths as an interviewer, is his ability to listen. A strength few others possess.
Right on death's door. Came all the way back to be the face of the WWE again. Legend.
My all time favorite wrestler
He was on death’s door but due to outside interference from Shawn Michaels he picked up the big victory
@@ochomigos great comment lol
@@ochomigos SWEET CHIN MUSIC!! SWEET CHIN MUSIC!! BAH GAWDDD
@@biggietothex SWEET CHIN MUSIC TO THE GRIM REAPER, AS GAWD AS MY WITNESS HE IS BROKEN IN HALF
I recently had to have a defibrillator implanted because of a genetic heart condition that caused me ventricular tachycardia on several occasions. Bear in mind im under 30 i didnt see a single patient that didnt double my age the whole time i spent at the hospital.
I cant express how comforting this interviews are and how gratefull i am to triple h for opening up and sharing his story.
I wish nothing but the best for him and his family
Same thing brother. 28 and had it since I was 13. I had 4 surgeries & Every time I go to the doctor everyone around me is 60+
My ex fiancé had a pacemaker implanted when we were 17.
That was a terrifying time for both of us lol. I remember taking her for her check ups and she was 30-40 years younger than anyone in that waiting room
**bare** not the animal, Bear.
@@MattHadderEnglish is not my first language, thanks for pointing that out
I’m an ICU nurse at Yale where he went. Crazy to think he went there but he’s just a human like all of us. He’s right tho. Nothing matters in the end. Spend time with your loved ones. It will be gone fast.
Triple H has really gained my respect after this, so calm and collected, I’ve also had heart issues and trust me it’s a lot easier to tell yourself to remain calm then it is to actually remain calm , I wish him good health and a long life ahead
@@captdaddy 😂 exactly my point, im glad he earned your respect from having a health scare
@@captdaddy they’re just saying they relate why y’all gotta hate 😂
@@CarolinaPanthersGuy trust me
He already had my respect. He just has made me respect him more
@@CarolinaPanthersGuy fair enough it's just wording felt abit patronising, wish us all good health, peace ✌️
He's lucky to be alive and we're lucky to still have him in the world. A true legend of wrestling x
💙💙
He still sounds like poo .
love triple H
No, blessed.
He's done so much for the business and it's heartwarming to see that he has no regrets and he'd rather focus on building up others' careers. Not only has he done a lot for WWE on the business side of things but he's done wonders for Women's wrestling as well. A real class act
Man, he’s seen so many people pass away in similar circumstances, some of whom were his own friends, he must have been terrified. Eddie, Bulldog, Warrior, Savage, Andre, Boss Man, Road Warrior Hawk. All lost due to heart related issues. He handled it like a tank though, so thankful that we didn’t lose him.
Yeah and don't forget Scott Hall. He had a blood clot that caused him to have 3 heart attacks that killed him, because of his hip surgery.
And sadly now Bray Wyatt.
It’s absolutely terrible 😢, all the folks we have lost in the business due to heart related issues, really is a wake up call to the younger generation
Heartbreaking. I've never met the man, but was always a fan and always looked up to his style and persona. Losing HHH would be a great loss to all of us.
Not heartbreaking. Look at this as inspiration!
@@bobbyblack1138 but it is heartbreaking he almost died last year.
@@samg873 he almost died after they put in the defibrillator?
@@Outdoorpro72 before
it happened after he was vaxxed.
“Rode it til the wheels fell off, and the wheels fell off”. Man oh man Triple H, God love ya. Thanks for all the memories in-ring.
Damn glad I got to watch the ride for years of his career. Loved him and hated him throughout the years as far as a character goes, but always respected him for what he did.
More like Roids'
😭
@@tonymontana4284 these guys take steroids?
Triple HGH
Even heart failure can't beat The Game ❤
Mr. Pachino, he’s the Cerebral Assassin HELLO?
It'll only take 70 years..😅
and even Jerry "The King" Lawler too
His comments toward the end about not being able to get time back with your family -- so very, very true. I have a three year old boy and have already told myself that I will NEVER be too busy for the important moments in his life, and I will do my best to fulfill that promise to myself.
Mad respect to Triple H on sharing and being transparent about his health scare. Grew up on this dude.
Not transparent enough. Steroids take a toll
I think a lot of people watching this have. I've been watching his matches since I was 9 and seeing him like this is one of the most sobering things to witness.
It's a very sobering and highly insightful interview on his health battles. 👍 Legend of a wrestler growing up for myself and my brothers.
@@ZeldaEd123 how did u watch scripted matches for 9 year
@@BlackMamba-lt8oe I started watching wrestling in late 2002 and I was 9 years old at the time?
Triple H is a good guy underneath it all. This interview really shows it
Just because he's nice here, doesn't mean he doesn't have a very unfriendly side also.
@bert Dr wit except there's videos of him meeting fans and is very friendly. He even took time out to spend time talking to a fans baby
I think, and he admits this, people can change. I think as he’s matured, he’s become a better person. It’s a good lesson tbh, your personality isn’t static, it’s never too late to change.
@@Bert_de_Wit Yeah remember he had a big hand in screwing Bret at survivor series 97
The guy who betrayed Chyna, ran the place with his kliq? That is a good guy? I guess some people are easily fooled.
Had absolutely no idea exactly _how_ much he went through... Huge, huge respect.
"Until the wheels fall off. And the wheels fell off." He gained a perspective after a life threatening situation. I'd love for him to become a public speaker.
I'm glad Triple H is okay. He was the wrestler everybody loved to hate, but he was also one of the most entertaining and greatest wrestlers of all time too.
We hated him, we love him
All because, he knew what is wresrling by heart and thats why he is a legend
@@karuzozweihander3218
Indeed. He did.
Time to play the game! I'm glad things worked out well for Hunter...I speak from experience when it comes to heart failure......much love to Hunter and his family. We just lost a family member last year from CGHF...
Like The Rock and Austin. People hate him then love him
My condolences for your lost family member. I'm happy though HHH survived, though. It is a truly scary experience! 💙💙💙
That’s terrifying, happy to see he’s still with us
It really is terrifying especially if it can happen to this guy who has millions and teams of doctors and stuff.
@@flightofthebumblebee9529 its precisely cause of that that hes still alive tho. Imagine if this was a regular dude. Would most likely be dead
@@signalhd9793 that's what I just said in other words lol
Triple HGH
@@signalhd9793 Very sad but true. 🙏
I had a heart attack last year.i also had a 99% blockage and a blood clot . I have a stent in my heart Only God kept me alive
Triple H gave us some incredible moments in the last 25 years and it was more than enough. Now he is shaping younger talents with his experience and still contributing immensely to the business.
This aged SO well. The Rock/Roman/Bloodline vs Cody/Seth/Basically Avengers cinema wouldn't happen if not for him.
Props to HHH for opening up like this. Wasn't always a fan, especially during the Reign of Terror days in the early 2000's, but to see him putting priority in his life and putting his family first really hits home now that I have a daughter myself. Props to him.
He opened up like this months ago with Stephen A Smith.
@@chriskay1449 link it or go away
@@reyagu4607 just look it up yourself
Wondering if he hadn't been vaccinated if he would have had this issue. I know he said this was genetic but it's interesting that this happened not long after vaccination.
@@reyagu4607 Can't be linked or it would be deleted. It's simple to search it.
There is a reason why he is one of the All-Time Greats. Think about who was around him during the Attitude Era. WOW! Greatest era of wrestling.
His knack for finding new talent or taking existing talent under his wing is pretty impeccable too ,, randy and Bautista, all the NXT stuff which he now put shawn michaels in charge of
Greatest era is a matter of opinion,the 70s,80s,90s each was the greatest to that generation.
Brunno Sammartino drew big crowds at a time when there wasn t much of television or instant mass communication,some would say that Brunno was better than Flair and Hogan.
My point is: greatest era in wrestling depends on what that individual is looking at.
@@giovannisocci8793 So true. I remember old Mid-South wrestling. When I was going to school in Dallas, I was driving around and somehow while being lost, I came across the Legendary Sportatorium. So many greats came through there. The 80's was a decade of great tag teams at all levels. I also used to love WWF's Intercontinental Championship wrestlers. A lot of character amongst all the competitors. Great Times indeed.
bet he won't be getting anymore jabs
@@giovannisocci8793 I am going to say the 90's and early 00's 80's was fun but nothing like the 90s and early 00's
This brought me to tears I have so much respect for Triple H as a human and a wrestler I'm really sad that we won't see him wrestle again I completely understand why he medically can't. I'm still going to miss his it. I'm very thankful that he is alive he has brought NXT into the next generation he is a vital part of WWE.
I’ve always been a fan of this man and I honestly never knew he had went through this. I’m glad he’s still here ❤
I’ve always loved Hunter. Hearing him say he wasn’t sad to hang up the gloves because watching the younger wrestlers now achieve their goals brings him that same excitement and happiness of when he used to wrestle himself is so genuine & heart warming.
Paul
His names triple H to people that don’t know him personally
@@cookiesncreed1487 birth certificate says Paul
To the original comment : I haaaated triple H. But that mean he was a great heel. 😎 Great guy. Love what they do for make a wish
@@ZLwh1ne if it is to the original. then reply to the original? lmao wtf
Had a pacemaker fitted aged 14 due to complete heart block. The health anxiety is incredible. Relate to what he’s saying
Makes sense why he stayed away from drugs and drinking.
Although the story he speaks of here is a tragic and scary one, this is one interview with him that I really appreciate. I don't know that I've ever seen and heard the man known to the world as "Triple H" just being the guy he is in his everyday life. Behind the scenes and when not in character, he just seems like an honest, intelligent, down to earth kind of guy. It's great to know he's ok after having that close of a call, and I hope he's got decades left to enjoy here with us.
My husband had Triple Bypass last year. Great thing with wrestling, a lot of these guys are like us. A lot of family groups within the wrestling world. Had friends that worked in hotels near the arenas where these guys would come to wrestle, and they would talk about how huge these guys were and how they interacted with their fans. Seems like the nicest people play the best villains, and for some reason I actually always liked Triple H. He was always so entertaining, going up against and taunting the Rock and Stone Cold, etc.
I can see his eyes turning red and watering when he answers the dying question. Love his outlook on having to retire. Love what he has done with WWE since Vince retired. Life almost had him down for the count but he kicked out at 2 and hit it with one last Pedigree.
Triple HGH
Stay natural buddy!
@@steroidsR4losers Ummmmmm ok?

Boring
The reason the STEROID LOSERS don't like talking about their STEROIDS:
The STEROID LOSERS want us to believe their "size" & "strength" came from lifting weights!
The STEROID LOSERS want us to buy their BOGUS supplements & "training programs"!
FAKES & CROOKS!
Stay natural buddy!
I’m going through something similar now and listening to HHH talk about his experience really calmed me down. I can safely say it is a terrifying experience
Health is wealth. I recently had a health scare and it was nowhere near as bad as triple H, it turned out to be something very minor. But I was constantly thinking about it, I thought there was something wrong with me and I was going to die and it took a mental toll on me for 2 months. Health really is wealth. I'm just about better now, another month or 2 and I'll be fine. Good luck. 👍👍👍
Best of luck man. Youll get through this
@@nigel485 sorry to hear that what caused these issues and what u doing to make yourself better
What’s a health scare?
Hang in there 👍🤟
I have heart problems and I really sympathise with him because it is truly terrifying to know that your heart can just stop beating at any time. I’m glad to see he’s doing okay really it’s good to see.
Always been a HHH fan, extremely lucky to have seen him " officially " retire at WrestleMania 38. I moment ill never forget
I met him years ago. And he’s such a genuine and kind person. The way he was talking is the way he is in this interview. No arrogance or anything of that sort. I shook hands with him and said how much of a fan I am to him. He was very appreciative. So glad he’s healthy with everything
Liar
@@staygold2563your mad lol
I don't think that people give Ariel Helwani enough credit for his work. Amazing interviews, allows them to respond without interruption and steers the interview in a soft manner. Great interview.
Big facts! I wasn’t familiar with him until the MJF interview but I’ve come to really enjoy his product
That’s what I noticed in this interview and I like interviewers who do both of these things.
I've seen Ariel piss ppl off too 😂
Piers morgan also lets them finish
Him and cvv
I had the exact same issue in 2016. We are both lucky to be alive!
What a guy, total respect for him and glad he is ok, what a legend!
Powerful interview. Puts life into perspective. Glad he’s still with us.
Ariels a great interviewer
Triple HGH
@@bryced7633 Helwani is one of the best interviewers when it comes to sports journalism. The guy is pretty clued up when it comes to the world of MMA but he's equally as clued up with wrestling jargon and nuances. His interviews it's basically a real interview. Hearing last year about trips heart issues was a major shock and humbled me as I have always seen trips as the indestructible guy built like a Brickhouse that rarely loses. Just goes to show no matter who we are we're all humans at the end of the day.
yes it does, it just proves a person should not take experimental medication that has never been tested and has no use for it
He won’t be for very long catheters kills ya more then heart attacks
He was hands down one of the best in the business at getting people to follow the storyline and being a character aswel as a great in ring performer
And was great at making people hate him when needed and love him when needed especially during the early 2000's during the reign of terror
Yeah he is at least 8 / 10 not a 4/10 wrestler.
One of my all time favourites and hearing this for the first time was so heartbreaking and im so thankful that he got the help straight away ❤
Triple H has been my favourite WWE fan for more than I can remember and hearing him talking about this is absolutely heartbreaking 🥺 I'm so glad he made a great recovery! 👊👊❤️
Holy cow. What a story. He's so damn humble and wise. The product is better now because of his passion for the business.
Bless him.... I too have congestive heart failure and its the worst feeling to hear "your heart is functioning at 20%" i drove myself to the hospital, I'll NEVER forget it. My heart is at 40-45%
With Triple H talking about this, I think about my father. My father had a heart attack a few years ago and it really was a scary situation. God is good and I'm so glad he made through it. I'm also glad Triple H had a doctor that caught the problem before it got worse. It's a miracle that both my father and HHH are still here.
Hunter talking in a very humanly manner, not as a Wrestler that i have watched for almost 25 years, really feels refreshing and it just shows that even he is vulnerable on a physical and emotional level. And i am glad that he is so open with it as the new head of WWE, which is something i never saw Vince do.
I wish Hunter all the best and that "the game" will live a long and happy life.
Hes definately changed.
Vince McMahon attended Pat McAfee Show earlier this year.
triple h was close to dying but then suddenly remembered he had a sledgehammer under the operation table which he used to survive against his most challenging opponent! mad respect for paul!
Yea man that sledge😢
Grew up watching triple H and all the old school 90s wrestling era, I love seeing him still so involved, I respect this man and his journey, and his emotion is just so raw. I enjoyed this watch!
"I was vaxxed"
It's scary as hell! I am dealing with diastolic heart failure. I almost died. I have always liked HHH but seeing him open up about this make me like him even more. And seeing him get emotional just made me cry.
Oh man, sorry. When did it start?
Weak genetics
@Boogie loose 🐱 energy 🥒🥒🥒🥒
@Boogie evander holyfield has beaten u 2 times , even though why the press follow u🐱🤣🤣🤣🤣, bcoz u are loose 🐱 energy

My dad had a widow maker heart attack. Has the defibrillator/pacemaker. I understand how traumatic and life changing this can be. Prayers to Paul and his family.
Amen. 💕🙏
Hear my attack?
@@rocklobster5074 😂😂😂 dude I never caught that. Thanks!!
did your dad do tons of steroids for decades like HHH?
Had the same problem with my heart, was in the ER for something not related and was rushed to surgery mine was blocked 100% for who knows how long. Got a stent and no more problems.
My favorite wrestler without question. Had the great physique, charisma, and knew his limitations in the ring. Respect.
I never liked Triple H in WWE but I have so much respect for this man. This interview and the things he has said is so deep and it will be with me forever!
Wow how couldn’t u like him in wwe
I zoned out
Feel the same. The man is bigger than his character!!
@Eric Guerrero fr, such his character on WWE is a bit of a jerk but I can't help but love him. & he's a good person bts
I mean that's the point he's a heel in majority of his run but he's a good person outside his character
My man really had been through 20 hours in 3 days with his heart opened 😢😢😢 God bless Paul and his family 🙏🙏🙏
I've never been a fan of Triple H, and was a fan of WWE/WWF from the early 90s. THis interview is very touching, good to see this normal side of him. I wish him all the best!
Good GOD. I had absolutely no idea of the level of danger he was in, and I'm so glad he shared this story.
Wow. Just, wow.
What a great guy he is. And well done to Shawn for watching his back.
Has to be said, those doctors and surgeons are absolutely INCREDIBLE people 👏 ❣️
Amen they truly are
This guy bounced around with doink the clown and Irwin r shyster . And makes it sound so deep. 😂
Can we just commend his Dr for actually doing his job and caring enough to find the actual problem rather than just give meds
Wish Bray Wyatt had got lucky like HHH. R.I.P. Bray Wyatt 💜
Another benefit of being a celebrity
He’ll be paid really well I’m guessing
Wow no one in the comments is going to say it huh
Wow!!! Iv always liked HHH one of my favorite wrestlers, very very touching interview. He is such a freaking down to earth dude,he is so level headed. So glad he is ok and doing good!!
What a mature, level-headed guy who isn’t too proud to extract humility and perspective from his ordeal. I’m grateful that he shared his thoughts and feelings with us. Triple-H is a true mensch.
After watching this, 100% respect for him. What a humble guy. I certainly hope his life continues on years to come. I'm a HHH fan now.
I struggle with heart arrhythmia so I’ve had my fair share of doctors talking about heart stuff with me and man, this guy had a guardian angel
What a respectful interviewer, leaning forward the entire time. I wish the utmost health and happiness to the legend Triple H. ❤
The love he has for the business, for his fans, for his family is truly a huge blessing. I’m glad Hunter is alive he is a wonderful person.
Yes he is. He's a legend.
Im glad it's working out for him, and it's great to see him accepting the new chapter in his life.
My dad dodged the widowmaker at 70, had an emergency triple bypass to correct it, and lived another eleven years. My mom had a heart attack in her 50s, made some changes and lived until 83.
Now that I'm staring at 60, my Dr is keeping an eye on my heart. So far, so good...
So far so good is great to hear!
Triple HGH
My Dad’s father died at 60 from a heart attack.
Triple HGH
🙏🏿🙏🏿🙏🏿🙏🏿
10:30 Triple H had one hell of a career. His reaction to never wrestling again was very justified and understood. He knew he left a legacy.
For an industry where so many people succumb to so many different dangerous vices and lifestyles, it’s so refreshing to see one of the best ever be so candid and transparent while also spending his whole career doing things the right way.
Triple H: "What's his finish?
Booker: "The Widow Maker."
Triple H: "I'm not putting that over, get my shovel."
😂😂😂
Don't know why people think he buried talents he didn't putted over booker which was a fault I agree but that doesn't mean he buried him booker is already a multi time champion and those HHH haters won't say this to punk who is now burying AEW and he can't even wrestle properly.
😂😂😂😂
🤣🤣🤣
Get my sledgehammer
I really respect Triple H. He has matured really nicely. Lived his best life, created a family. Inspired others to live their best life. Went through hard times with his health and learned from that experience in order to be an even better person. He is still helping others to live their best life in the business while also being a good husband and father first of all. He is a great man.
Oh please
I still remember when he tore his left/right quadricep in 2001. He still was able to take the Walls Of Jericho and finish the match, then return the following year.
to bad china didnt get the same respect..
Ye sure, that’s why he cheated on her multiple times.
Gotta take steroids to live your best life, attract a female, start a family, etc until your body gives out
Having his priorities in order after a scare like that. What he said about that appreciation is so well said.
I've known for all these years after meeting so many of these guys. It's a business. But seeing and hearing him say what he just said just reaffirms. Wow. Ty for posting this!
This had me emotionally and personally on edge. I can't understate how sad, and happy this made me at the same time. Sad because that is scary, and I don't wish that on anyone. Happy because of his outlook on it all, he was positive, and I respect that a lot.
Med student here. For those who don’t know, the “widow-maker” part of the heart he’s referring to is the left anterior descending artery, it’s the biggest artery in your heart. People who suffer from a heart attack or issues in that artery have about a 12% chance of survival outside the hospital, it improves to 25% in the hospital. I’m truly thankful he has a healthy lifestyle and didn’t have to worry about the compounding issues of what we call comorbidities (unhealthy choices like smoking, drinking, and a sedentary lifestyle).
Thanks in advance for letting me nerd out real quick and apply what I’ve learned in my studies so far 🤞🏾.
Why does it happen even with such a healthy lifestyle.?
@@minivalsankattungal9869. There’s a variety of reasons from genes, to cholesterol, and even blood pressure. Artery health is something else to be considered as well.
My Dad died from the widowmaker, unfortunately while he was driving home from work which resulted in his van hitting a tree head on. The coroner told us he was gone from the widowmaker before the impact. Big props to HHH, he’s been saved by competent doctors who sound like they genuinely cared. Amazing!
@@minivalsankattungal9869covid vaccine
Extremely heartbreaking and scary for triple H this guy is an outstanding legend and I highly respect him
Great interview! His answer to the last question hit me hard! He looks like he has found real peace in the midst of a life altering struggle!
Nobody even knew he was struggling. It was shocking to me. He did the right thing. His time is over. He did us a great service. He was a hell of a performer. Still is. One of the best in the business. Jerry Lawler & him have so much in common it’s scary. We all remember what happened.
Thank God he retired from wrestling and having him around still. Like I said before about Roman's Lukemia announcement...God, protect this man
This is very emotional and heartwarming. A very good lesson about life.
The Game! Hate this happened to him, but I'm glad he's blessed to still be here! HHH was a big part of my childhood, & behind the scenes he seems like a good guy! Hope he's doing okay nowadays, dude's a real legend!
This man's outlook on his whole situation, life, his career and family is amazing! Like him or not he definitely is respected in the up most way !
up most? hahaha
Very powerful interview, and personally relatable - my father also had the widowmaker attack last summer, his heart also had 99% blockage and they told him if he had gone another week before checking in to the hospital that he wouldn’t have made it. If it wasn’t for his Apple Watch going off multiple times that day, he probably would not be here anymore.
I’m glad Hunter beat the odds as well, and it’s very relieving to hear that he is at peace with being forced to retire from performing. He will always be one of my father and I’s favorite performers
He really is a good guy !
Great father , good boss etc
Hear tons of cool stories about this legend.
I didnt always love wrestling but those biceps always had me tuning in. Its nice now to find out what a Humble man he is. Much respect!
The LAD, the widomaker. Had a 70% blockage myself. I caught it early, in hospital that evening, next day stent in a different hospital, next day home. Like HHH, not diet, not bad lifestyle just life, age and luck.
Get your heart checked folks.
Which test did they use to detect it?
As someone who had his first ICD (defibrillator) implanted in my chest at 19 years old, and now being 42 and hearing Triple H talk about finding peace and how he feels makes me think of the early days of me having mine. He's putting into words, things that I felt at the time, and have done over the intervening years. It's amazing to hear him talk like this and I'd love to meet him and tell him how hearing this has hit me and how I see some of what I went through is there in the way he talks about it.
19!? Genetic issue?
@@rlfs2853 Nope, just a weird defect in my heart that didn't show up until then. Really fortunate it was caught when I went to the doctor for something unrelated.
Triple HGH
Stay natural buddy!
I used to work in CTICU at Yale. It's a great place. I left a couple of years ago. It would have been an honor to participate in his care. I'm glad he caught it in time.
My buddy is a doctor and told me a year ago while we watched the game that he had heart problems.
He said he just looked weak.
Triple H has always been my fav wrestler. All the way from his battles in the late 90’s, summer slam 02, and the rest of the things he’s achieved in his career. Upmost respect for him and I hope he fully recovers from this.
True Hall of Fame talent. The WWE made the absolute right choice putting him in charge. Good luck, and Godspeed to him, Stephanie, and his family.
Im so upset i live in an era were triple h of all superstars is retired from wrestling he was my favorite back in his 2008-09 run
As someone who has had triple bypass surgery from a heart attack and blockage, I can completely relate to everything Triple H said about being scared. Terror like no other is how I described it.
I had a dual bypass. Terror is about right
have what back some night and how good time attack ever from wwe brock him never house randy orton ric TRIPLE H have
Good to hear he's ok. Back in the day when I watched the WWE he was one of my favorites. He was the embodiment of wrestling entertainment.
Always respected the heck out of HHH! Serious respect for that man. He is right, after the health scare with his heart he had nothing else to accomplish in the ring, he had a 1 of a kind wrestling career and a 1 of a kind life and he has nothing to complain about. He has for sure 100% earned his rest from the ring. Much love to one of my hero’s! 🙏🏻🤘🏻
Amen to that. 🙏
It’s hard not to love this guy. He seems to be a good man. He’s reigniting my love of wrestling in big way with how he’s running things so far.
Same I started watching summerslam after vinces “retirement” after a few year break from wwe and I am falling in love again
Ruined too many wrestlers' careers behind the scenes. Very sad.
my favorite wrestler of all time...
PS ik this was 7 months ago but him just being alive means a lot because of his impact on WWE past and present. just good to see him in good health.
The Game is such a great man and it’s inspiring to see how grateful he is and how amazing his outlook on life is!
So glad he's still around, not even just for wrestling, but just for his family. On the other hand, it's great that he caught it when he did, he's a massive part of modern wrestling, and it would have been a massive shame for him to leave us. Best wishes Hunter
Shudder to think what a real athlete would go through . This guy danced around with doink the clown 50 times a year, sounds like he's talking about something deep 😂
