Triple H, who has been an essential part of the WWE, suddenly decided to take a retirement from his pro wrestling career in March 2022. ‘The Game’ decided to stop after having a cardiac event. However, Triple H is still on the management team of the company where he was recently promoted to Head of Creative and Chief content officer.

Paul Levesque, famously known as Triple H, suffered from a near-death experience. A cardiac arrest can shake anyone to the core and force them to think about the decisions they have taken in life until now. The same had happened to Levesque. In a recent interview, Triple H opened up about the situation, which was the most difficult time of his life.

Triple H said, “In some way, it’s a gift to look at your life through those eyes. If they tell you that you’re going to die on Tuesday, no one is going to go, Oh s**t, I have a board meeting on Friday. It’s irrelevant. I love what I do. The passion that it brings out of me, I love all of it. I love being part of creating the magic of what we do in WWE for people all around the world. 

“It’s my passion in life, but it doesn’t compare to my passion for my kids and my wife. When you break it down in that manner and that can all go away, you think of life differently,” he added.
