Paul Triple H Levesque has addressed the ongoing discussion surrounding Pat McAfee ahead of WrestleMania 42, indicating that McAfee’s actions could eventually lead to consequences.

Speaking on ESPN’s First Take, Levesque was asked about McAfee’s involvement in the storyline featuring Randy Orton and Cody Rhodes. While acknowledging McAfee’s outspoken role, he suggested that it may not go unanswered.

“There’s something on the horizon for this for sure. When you run your mouth as much as Pat does, eventually somebody’s gonna try to shut it but, really, as a WWE fan, what I’m really looking forward to is that moment, mentor, student, Cody Rhodes, Randy Orton, locking up over that WWE Championship. It’s just a moment that transcends a couple of generations to me and that’s what’s really cool about it,” Levesque said.

The comments come as McAfee’s involvement has generated strong reactions from both fans and talent in recent days, with multiple WWE stars publicly voicing their opinions on the situation.

Levesque was also asked about the level of criticism surrounding WWE’s creative direction heading into its biggest event of the year. He acknowledged the pressure but framed the attention as a positive.

“It’s always pressure but the thing is talk is good. People are talking and that is a good thing. Pat, love him or hate him, Pat makes people talk, and I think that’s what’s important here is people are talking. This is gonna be an amazing show. This will be incredible and it will deliver on all levels,” Levesque said.

His remarks suggest that while the response to McAfee has been mixed, WWE views the discussion as part of the overall build to WrestleMania. At the same time, the focus remains on the Undisputed WWE Championship match between Rhodes and Orton, which is set to headline WrestleMania 42 Saturday.
