Triple H introducing Motorhead
Fan report from wrestlingfigs.com:
The lights dimmed and Motorhead's "THE GAME" came on.....and so did Triple H! He was so pumped up, and he gave the band a cool intro. But the kicker is that for the entire show, HHH and Stepanie McMahon were on the side of the stage, and Stephanie was headbanging like crazy to the whole show! It was so funny watching them act like a couple during the show. HHH looked like he kept making sure she was OK, and she would go over and rub his chest and give him a peck. It was different for sure. When the show was done, HHH came back on stage and shook hands and then did the end of the show bow with the band.
Triple H & Stephanie attend Motorhead Concert
WWE Champion Triple H and his wife Stephanie were in attendance at last night's Motorhead Concert at the Roseland Ballroom in New York City. The concert started off with Triple H's "The Game" theme music blaring over the PA system with the man himself appearing on stage. Triple H introduced the band and stood on the left side of the stage in clear view of the crowd for the entire 90-minute show. Stephanie was also there with Triple H, headbanging throughout the concert.
At one point, Stephanie jumped on stage to high five drummer Mikkey Dee. During their third song, Lemmy said, "I'd like to dedicate this next song from Motorizer to Triple H and his lovely wife." The song was "Rock Out," the theme for the Unforgiven pay-per-view. After the show was over, Triple H came on stage to take a final bow with the band.

J.R. comments on the Triple H/MVP match
From J.R.'s fan nation blog:
As an old school wrestling fan, the FNSD main event this week between Triple H vs. MVP was a really enjoyable wrestling match. I love watching strategies unfold in the ring as opposed to seeing a dozen hurancaranas, six planchas and three topes all in the span of about how long it takes Gary Coleman to P.O. his fan.
