WWE: Triple H on Chyna’s HoF Induction, Becky Lynch on WrestleMania 35, Hidden Gems

Triple H Comments on Chyna Being a Future Two-Time WWE Hall of Fame Inductee

CBS Sports held a recent interview with Triple H and one of the topics discussed included his thoughts on Chyna’s upcoming induction into WWE’s Hall of Fame as a member of DX and the possibility of her being inducted on her own in the future.

“It’s awesome. I’m thrilled for her as the human being that I knew, for her family and for her sister, who I knew. There is probably not a woman who has ever made as big of an impact as she did. Somebody that transcended the business on her own and I’m sure will be in the Hall of Fame sometime on her own. I think it’s fitting she is in there with DX in the beginning because it’s how she started, and I think it’s what it should be.”


Becky Lynch Comments on Headlining WrestleMania

ESPN held a recent interview with Ronda Rousey, Charlotte Flair, and Becky Lynch and one of the topics discussed included Lynch’s thoughts on headlining WrestleMania 35.

“It is the most incredible, humbling feeling in the entire world because, on one hand, what happens after you achieve all your life goals? You have to come up with some new ones. Even the fact, everything about this feels so synchronistic and so meant to be. Even the fact that New York was the first state I ever came to when I came to America. Very grateful that this girl that was failing PE at 15, has somehow become the best sports entertainer in the entire world. So much that they couldn’t deny her the main event at WrestleMania.”
