“Second Degree Burns All Over Me”: Triple H Experienced Serious Health Issues Before Facing Brock Lesnar in 2013

WrestleMania has always been the prestigious Premium Live Event of WWE. A massive hype is created around it and the wrestlers are expected to deliver as per the audience’s expectations. However, certain things do not always go as planned. A classic example of this was seen before the match between Triple H and Brock Lesnar at WrestleMania 29. But not many of us know about it.

Triple H details his suffering before his WrestleMania 29 match against Brock Lesnar

Both the audiences present in the arena and the ones watching on screen were pretty thrilled about this match. There’s huge pressure on the wrestlers as well to deliver their best. In between all this excitement, the co-founder of D-Generation X made his magnificent entry at WrestleMania 29. To make it look more captivating, the lighting and smoke were on point. However, the dry ice used in it troubled Hunter Hearst Helmsley profoundly. 

The current chief content officer of WWE once detailed his suffering as well. He said, “I get in the smoke and all of a sudden I feel like I’m on fire. And I get out of the smoke and I start walking down the ramp and I realize that I am sizzling!”

“I can feel myself sizzling and I look down and I have dry ice all stuck to my stomach and I tried to brush it off but I ended up getting like really bad like second-degree burns all over me,” HHH added. 

With all this, the pain for the night just started for the WWE Hall of Famer. From thereon he had to face the vicious Brock Lesnar. However, despite all that, he put on a show and came out on top against Lesnar.

The match was also one of the few occasions where ‘The Game’ had to put his career on the line after he was tricked into signing the contract with this stipulation.

What was the trick that Triple H fell into?

All that the wrestling fanatics would know is that Hunter pushed himself to a great extent in preparation for this match. But he was even tricked into signing the contract for that match, as he didn’t know what sort of match it would be. Seeking revenge for his SummerSlam 2012 loss, an attack on his best friend, and an assault on his father-in-law, Triple H was hell-bent on getting in the ring with Lesnar no matter the cost.

However, when The Game got to know that it will be a No Holds Barred match and that if he loses, his career would be over, there wasn’t any way to go back. He had to fight The Beast Incarnate and perform at his best to conquer the rival.
