HHH has confirmed his in-ring career is done on "First Take" with Stephen A. Smith
Excerpts of Triple H’s interview with Stephen A. Smith aired this morning on ESPN’s First Take.
Triple H said he had viral pneumonia and his lungs were inflamed and things got worse over time. He said that he got checked after he coughed up blood.
Hunter said he suffered heart failure in the emergency room and his ejection fracture went down to 12 and he was down to the “1 yard line” on where he doesn’t want to be.
He got emotional when talking about if “this is it” and it’s tough to swallow and makes you think differently about life.
On his future, he said he is done in the ring and “I will never wrestle again” because he has a defibrillator in his chest. Stephen A. Smith said that Triple H is still “50% of himself” at this time.
The entire interview will air later today on ESPN+
