WWE Hall of Famer Mick Foley appeared on D-Von Dudley’s YouTube channel and spoke about Triple H’s abilities as an in-ring performer, reflecting on their matches during the Attitude Era. Foley said,
“You just know you’re in the ring with greatness. This has nothing to do with move sets. You know you’re in the ring with a ring general. You know you’re in the ring with a guy who’s making you the best you can be. So there have been, over the years, people who have said, ‘He wasn’t as good as people thought.’ It’s like, no, I actually think he’s better than you realize. He was that good. Whenever you can watch a match, you go, ‘Wow, there’s just something about a Triple H match.’”
He continued, “It didn’t matter who he was with; it was gonna have shades of a Triple H match. I hoped that I could take my brawling style and make it work with anyone. I was so glad that I caught him at the tail end of my full-time career, when he was trying to push through and become that single guy he knew he could be, and he was simultaneously helping me with the best landing I could have ever asked for.”
Foley also discussed the possibility of making his farewell tour in 2028, the 30th anniversary of his iconic Hell in a Cell match with The Undertaker. He continued,
“The only reason I don’t fix the teeth now is they are a reminder of that night I love being here in your gym and seeing all the mementos around me. I love houses where guys have other stuff, but I don’t really have a wrestling house. What I do have is my smile. I thought now that I’m 60, maybe I’ll fix it. I might wait until I’m 63. 30 years of Hell. I’m going to go back out on the road again for one final tour in 2028 for the 30 Years of Hell Tour, and the idea is to hang it up completely, fix my teeth, maybe start wearing nice clothes so no one knows who I am, and just disappear into the night.”
