There was a lot of tension between Triple H and Daniel Bryan at one point during 2013. Bryan faced Randy Orton on an episode of Monday Night Raw and after the former World Champion suffered a stinger in the match, the decision was made to cut it short.
Bryan was reportedly "irate" when he realized that his match had been shortened and headed backstage for some answers.
Bryan talked about the situation in his 2014 Autobiography where he revealed that he and Triple H had something of a standoff after The Game was seen as the man who made the call because of the risks to Bryan's health.
"What is that all about. That's bull----!" "You need to calm down," responded Triple H, who had been communicating with the doctor over the headset and called for the match to be stopped, he added. "No, you need to calm down!" I replied. We were up in each other's faces and both ready to fight."
This altercation was then used as part of a storyline for Triple H and Bryan heading into their WrestleMania matchup, but it all stemmed from Bryan's very real reaction to a decision that Triple H made.
