If you watched AEW’s debut Double or Nothing show over the weekend, you will have seen that Cody rather blatantly took a shot at Triple H by destroying a throne with a sledgehammer.
Many wondered whether the King of Kings would make any kind of response to this in the week following, but as of yet, nothing has happened.
During a pre-NXT TakeOver: XXV show press call, Triple H was inevitably asked about AEW and the throne smash.
On HHH taking jab at AEW on HOF and AEW firing back…notes at HOF there is an elephant in room with @RealBillyGunn there and that was a very DX thing to do. Says he’s focused on NXT Takeover quality& results and growth & not what anyone else is saying or what their creative is.

HHH is asked about both WWE/AEW taking jabs at each other and whether NXT could get in the mix. He says the HoF ceremony was a bit different and expected from DX. He says he’s focused on TakeOver this weekend. ^JN

When asked directly about the Throne smash, he said: “For me, I don’t even think about it. I just want to put on the best product possible with this TakeOver. I’m focused on this Saturday’s TakeOver XXV and continuing to grow the brand.”
