Triple H’s recent injury at WWE Crown Jewel could really throw a problem into the mix for next year’s WrestleMania in New Jersey.
Dave Meltzer noted on Wrestling Observer Radio that Triple H’s pec injury sustained at the WWE Crown Jewel event likely means he’s missing Mania this year. After all, with only 5 months until WrestleMania and that being on the low-end of pec surgery recovery time — Trips probably won’t be ready until then.
“So he’s probably having surgery. I think he went right to Birmingham so he’s probably having surgery. If it is a torn pec and he’s having surgery — he’s out of WrestleMania which means the Batista/ Triple H match which was the main event of that show — you gotta change your plans.”
Dave Meltzer added that Randy Orton seems to be the logical choice if a replacement for Triple H needs to be decided on — if anything because they could tell a similar Evolution storyline.
“If Batista wants to do it I guess Orton would be the guy and it would probably be a better match now. But it’s not as big of a match. But yeah, that would be the guy though.”
