During the Wrestlepalooza post-show, Triple H said that Stephanie McMahon thought The Undertaker was going to do something for her birthday since it’s just around the corner and had absolutely no idea about the Hall of Fame induction announcement.
When Taker rolled up in front of her, you could see she was expecting something, but the moment he said the word “induct,” her head tilted and her facial expression changed.
After the long embrace, Steph told Taker that “he’s in trouble,” referring to her husband, who was watching backstage at Gorilla. A split screen video published by WWE showed Triple H’s reaction while Taker was delivering the news, and shed a tear as well.
When Stephanie reached Gorilla Position, Triple H put his hand up to cover his face and was met with an expletive from Stephanie before the two shared a big hug.
