WWE chief Triple H vows to haul in two superstars for talks after shocking car park fight following Bad Blood
TRIPLE H is to haul two WWE superstars in for talks after a shocking car park at Bad Blood.
Undisputed Champion Cody Rhodes was attacked by rival Kevin Owens backstage after the pay-per-view in Atlanta.
Rhodes, 39, competed in the main event at the State Farm Arena in Georgia as he teamed up with former foe Roman Reigns to beat Solo Sikoa and Jacob Fatu of The Bloodline.
But after picking up the win, the American fell victim to a backstage assault from Owens who blindsided him and pummelled him with a series of punches as well as kicks.
The whole incident took place in front of a handful of fans while WWE personnel tried to pull KO away from the fallen world champion.
Shock footage surfaced online and WWE legend and current chief Triple H revealed it will be handled behind the scenes.
He posted online: “We are aware of the incident outside of the arena last night between Cody Rhodes and Kevin Owens.
“The matter will be dealt with internally.”
And fans were left in awe as one said: “This is exactly how wrestling promotions should be using social media to tell stories in 2024. Brilliant.”
Another added: “One of the most creative things you’ve ever done. Bravo.”

The two wrestlers have been at odds since August when The American Nightmare defeated Owens to retain his title at Bash in Berlin.
Since then, their feud has heated up with the Canadian expressing his frustration with Rhodes teaming up with Reigns.
Owens and The Tribal Chief have been feuding the last two years during the latter’s dominant 1,316-day world title reign, which was ended by the current undisputed champion at WrestleMania 40.
The entire incident in the parking lot was part of a storyline that continues to evolve between the two professional wrestlers.
