What can be a perfect way for ‘The Game’ Triple H to start his WrestleMania weekend? The wrestling fans imagined Triple H wouldn’t attend The Stupendous WrestleMania 38, but he is in Dallas, Texas!

Paul Levesque, aka Triple H, announced his official in-ring retirement earlier this week. Last year when Triple H took time away from the company, the WWE reported it was due to a cardiac event. But during a recent interview with Stephen Smith on ESPN, Paul revealed that his heart condition wouldn’t allow him to get back in the ring again.

Why was The Game at Dallas Cowboys headquarters?

Before WrestleMania 38, The Game was trying to do his backstage job scouting new talents in the WWE. Several weeks ago, the company announced tryouts for current and recently graduated college students.

The WrestleMania tryouts began on Wednesday and ran throughout Friday. The company hosted over 50 male and female talents with athletic backgrounds in basketball, wrestling, football, gymnastics, volleyball, track, and field.

WWE Performance Center and WWE NXT staff accompanied Paul Levesque in Texas to scout young talent in the company.
