WWE legend, Triple H, quits wrestling
World Wrestling Entertainment (WWE) legend, Paul Levesque aka Triple H, has retired from professional wrestling.
The 52-year-old made the announcement during a session with American media personality, Stephen A. Smith, on Friday.
Triple H revealed the cardiac arrest he suffered last September forced him to quit the combat sport.
He is a five-time world heavyweight champion, a five-time WWE Intercontinental champion, and the winner of two Royal Rumble matches.

Triple H made his professional wrestling debut in 1995, and the 2019 fight against Randy Orton Saudi Arabia was the last time he took to the ring.
He said: “As far as in-ring, which I get a lot, I’m done.
“I will never wrestle again. First of all, I have a defibrillator in my chest, and it’s not a good idea for me to get zapped on live TV.”
