Triple H was stunned into near silence when he was told he’d be inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame in 2025.

WWE is on the road to WrestleMania 41 and a big part of that journey is the Hall of Fame ceremony which will take place on the same weekend as the showcase of the immortals.

WWE had not announced any inductees for the Class of 2025 but it seems things were at work behind the scenes to the surprise of fans and apparently Triple H himself.

The Chief Content Officer appeared alongside WWE President Nick Khan at a town hall meeting for company staff when out of nowhere Shawn Michaels’ music hit. That was followed by The Undertaker as The Deadman also made his way to join his old rivals.

Triple H Stunned By WWE Announcement

Shawn Michaels told Triple H that he and The Undertaker had made an executive decision and although The Game was part of the WWE Hall of Fame as part of DX, it was time he was inducted on his own. An emotional Triple H embraced both men before his wife Stephanie McMahon also joined him.

Triple H was a man of few words after the news as he joked about throwing Nick Khan off the building for keeping him in the dark:

From a guy that usually has something to say about everything, I’m speechless. I’m gonna kill Nick (Khan) when we leave here. If you see somebody flying off of the roof, just ignore it. I don’t know what else to say, just thank you.

Triple H will join Ric Flair, Shawn Michaels, Booker T, Bret Hart, Hulk Hogan, Scott Hall, Kevin Nash, Sean Waltman, and Barry Windham as a two-time WWE Hall of Famer.
