The father of WWE’s black-and-gold brand, Paul “Triple H” Levesque, took to social media after this week’s monumental episode of NXT On USA to comment on the NXT Women’s Championship changing hands in the highly-anticipated Shayna Baszler vs. Rhea Ripley showdown.
“The Game” sounded off on Ripley capturing the NXT Women’s Title from “The Queen of Spades” in one of two featured World Championship matches on Wednesday night’s NXT On USA show, which also featured Adam Cole defending his NXT World Championship against Finn Balor.
“An incredible main event and a new champion,” wrote Triple H in a tweet that also included photos of himself with Ripley holding the title backstage at Full Sail University in Winter Park, Florida after the match. “One of the most dominant reigns over the NXT Women’s division comes to end and another begins.”
Triple H added, “Rhea Ripley will be the one to lead NXT into the new year… Congratulations. ‘And New.'”
