“It was the first time” – Triple H opens up on scary incident outside WWE ahead of WrestleMania 40

WWE’s Chief Content Officer Triple H recently shared details about a frightening incident that occurred to him while he was away from the Stamford-based promotion.

The success of World Wrestling Entertainment continues to grow every week. The most recent episode of WWE RAW set numerous records, with many attributing the accomplishment to The Game. As the current CCO of WWE, he is seen as a driving force in revolutionizing the world of professional wrestling.

Complex has just released a new video on their YouTube channel featuring Triple H discussing the sneaker culture and purchasing a few pairs for himself and his family.

During their conversation, The Game shared a story about the moment he became aware of the massive popularity of WWE during The Attitude Era. The WWE CCO recounted going to the Pheasant Lane Mall to purchase supplements, only to find himself being followed by a large group of people.

“You mentioned Pheasant Lane Mall, one of the times that it really first hit me how big we had gotten was, [that] I used to go there all the time. There was a GNC there… And I went to go get supplements and it was maybe a 100 yards off the entrance, pulled in walked in the door, [and] by the time I walked to the escalator to go down to the next level, I looked back there’s like 200 people following me and I was like holy sh*t,”he said.

Despite being the King of Kings, he revealed that he never reached the store and instead had to drive around for nearly an hour to shake off the crowd before finally returning home.

“I never even made it to the store, it started to become a mob scene, security came, and like they got me out of there and people followed me leaving to try to get home. Like I had to drive around for 45 minutes to lose people to go back to my house and it was the first time I was like well I guess I’m done going to the mall,”he added. [From 11:11 to 11:59]

And at the time there was some of us in that era where like look, [Stone Cold Steve] Austin wore what he wore, like when you would see Austin and he had the Jorts before Cena did, right? With the Jorts and the knee braces just because [of] what he wore to the building that day.”[From 06:36 to 06:53]
