While speaking to Emily Mae of Sportskeeda at the Royal Rumble media event, Carmelo Hayes was asked about Triple H's induction.

"Yeah, shout out Triple H. I mean, shoot. Absolutely. There's a lot of guys. Cena, Hunter. I mean if he wasn't in the top position right now, he probably would have got in a lot sooner. I think that says a lot about the humility of Triple H is like, 'I don't need to be in the Hall of Fame right now because I'm pretty much running it.' So I mean that was really cool. I like how they did that. I like how Shawn and Taker did that I thought that was really cool to like your boys, I think about like that like it's like your road buddies and your boys like surprise you with a Hall of Fame, which is crazy. So so deserved and earned and... time to play the game."
