WWE superstar Triple H admits injury concern ahead of WrestleMania 35

Triple H has conceded that he has an injury concern ahead of his no holds barred clash against Batista at Wrestlemania 35.

The WWE legend admitted he has been forced to hope his recovering pectoral muscle will last the distance in the bout after tearing it during a tag team match in Saudi Arabia in October.

Triple H says he did not intend to wrestle much after the event but was quickly paired with Batista for what is sure to be one of the matches of the night in New Jersey.

"I got cleared up to perform, and my training is good and I feel good," he told ESPN.

“But until you get in there, lifting dumbbells and getting hit by Batista are two totally different things.

WWE legend confirms WrestleMania 35 match in doubt as he posts nasty injury video  

"So I’ll see how it goes, but I feel good and I’m excited to get in there.

"And at this point in my career, I don’t ever want to make it sound like it’s not as big as it is, but at this point in my career, it’s all gravy.”

Triple H is one of the most recognisable names and faces within the WWE having won the world heavyweight championship on five occasions and the WWE championship nine times.

He is also a five-time intercontinental champion and won the Royal Rumble in 2002 and 2016.
