#3. WWE EVP Triple H's first TV appearance since suffering a serious cardiac event
Triple H has not been seen on any TV program since he experienced a severe cardiac event a few months back. The WWE Executive appeared on a recent edition of NBC News and opened up about the company's NIL program.
WWE's 'Next In Line' initiative was introduced to create a pathway for exceptional college athletes to find their way into professional wrestling. Triple H commented on the exciting new project and explained how gifted students could earn money in college by maximizing their brand value at a young age.
You can check out Triple H's appearance below, in which he looks to be in excellent health once again:
“To allow college students to sort of monetize and utilize their name, image, and likeness. It has opened up an avenue for us. Thiss allows them to have that open door to earn money while in college," revealed Triple H.
Triple H underwent emergency surgery in September and subsequently took some time off from his backstage duties. There is also some doubt over his in-ring status as he might not get cleared to wrestle another match.
