Triple H injured at WWE Crown Jewel, will undergo surgery
Triple H will be undergoing surgery for an injury suffered during the main event of Crown Jewel.
WWE.com posted an update on Triple H after the show, noting that he suffered what appears to be a torn pectoral muscle while teaming with Shawn Michaels against The Undertaker & Kane. The article states that Triple H plans to return to the United States this week to undergo surgical repair.
The injury may have happened early in the match when Triple H was whipped into the corner and took a bump over the ropes to the outside. Triple H finished the match, with him eventually getting the pin on Kane after hitting the Pedigree.
In addition to Crown Jewel, Triple H wrestled at WrestleMania 34, the Greatest Royal Rumble, and Super Show-Down in 2018.
WWE’s European tour is beginning this weekend. Monday’s Raw and Tuesday’s SmackDown are both being taped at the Manchester Arena in Manchester, England.
