Triple H sends a heartfelt message following the death of former WWE Referee

WWE legend Triple H recently shared a heartwarming post addressing the passing of legendary referee Tim White.

White started his career in WWE as a part-time referee. He then went on to officiate in some of the company's most famous matches. Following his retirement in 2009, White starred in several comedy skits during WWE's Ruthless Aggression Era, alongside announcer Josh Matthews.

Following White's death, Triple H took to Twitter to pay a touching tribute to the former referee. In the post, The Game said White was one of the best people he's ever worked with.

"Shocked and saddened. Timmy was one of the absolute best people I’ve known and had the pleasure of working with. Myself and the entire @WWE family will miss him dearly," he wrote.
