But before we do get into this week's episode of Upper Sundowns for Smackdown, we need

to talk about the fact that yesterday Triple H announced due to all his health issues

he has retired from professional wrestling.

Now one, I'm just glad he's okay because it sounded terrifying.

But also two, I don't think I would be the wrestling fan.

I am today if it wasn't for the game and on a wider level.

He was my inspiration for going to the gym and lifting weights has helped me in many walks

when it comes to my own life, so I just want to give him one massive salute and say thank

you.

He also mentioned during this interview that at one point there were plans on the table

for him to wrestle at WrestleMania 38, but now obviously that's not going to happen.

But we still need to talk about the show of shows and we have just seen the penultimate

episode of Smackdown before that very event.

So let's take this to finger a power and give the good bits an up and a bad bit to down.

Brock Lesnar was here at the start of Smackdown and told us he'd been fine for trying to kill

Roman Reigns last week.

That doesn't sound accurate, surely you should be in jail.

And he also said he was going to buy him a blood red SUV, so there's no two ways about

it.

Lesnar is a crazy, crazy man.

He also let us know that management had told him you're not allowed to fight Roman anymore

unless there's provocation, so he went into the head of the table's dressing room.
