Triple H has confirmed that the emotional moment shared between Brock Lesnar and Cody Rhodes after their SummerSlam match was completely unplanned. After the American Nightmare beat Brock with three Cross Rhodes, the legendary heavyweight hugged Cody and raised his hand in front of the crowd in Detroit, Michigan. It was a rare and special sight to see the Beast let his guard down in that way.
At a press conference after the show, Triple H said, "I heard Cody say he hadn't had time to really digest the Brock Lesnar moment after their match - completely unplanned, completely in the moment." He pointed to how special it was seeing Brock do something like that and credited it to where Cody is at, despite his WrestleMania loss to Roman Reigns in April.
"Name the amount of people that Brock Lesnar has gotten up after going through a match like that, shook their hand and pulled them in to hug them before walking out," he said. "I know Brock, I work with him all the time. That was a 'holy s**t' moment for me! So, when Cody realises what happened, I think - that's a moment."
Triple H also had high praise for Brock as a 'generational talent' and special 'human being', with all the work he's done both in WWE and the combat sport world. "For me, you know, Brock Lesnar is such a unique athlete, human being, all those things, but I don’t believe he gets the credit he should for being one of the all time greats at this," he said. "You know, unbelievable athlete at the highest of levels, UFC at the highest of levels… but just talking about sports entertainment, in my opinion, one of the greatest of all time."
