‘America is back,’ wrote one user on X. Social media users were quick to react after spotting a familiar face at Linda McMahon’s Senate confirmation hearing for Secretary of Education – pro-wrestling star Triple H. Some joked that McMahon, estranged wife of WWE mogul Vince McMahon, had “brought her own security,” while others remarked on the sheer absurdity of the moment on Thursday. “Triple H is currently sitting behind Former WWE CEO Linda McMahon as she testifies before the Senate to become the Secretary of Education. America is back,” wrote one user.
“I guess she brought her own security... Wild times,” added another. Another wrote: “I count 4 people in the room for Linda McMahon’s confirmation hearing who’ve taken a Stone Cold Stunner on national television: Linda McMahon, Paul Levesque, Stephanie McMahon, Shane McMahon.”. A Stone Cold Stunner refers to the signature wrestling move of pro-wrestler Steve Austin, aka “Stone Cold.”. Shane and Stephanie McMahon are the children of Linda and Vince McMahon. Stephanie is married to Triple H, whose real name is Paul Lavesque. McMahon introduced her children and Lavesque to the Senate in her opening remarks.
