- Quotes
Triple H: You know, I know that all of you know that I am a man that makes very few mistakes. Almost never do I make a mistake. And when I have made mistakes in the past, my pride has always stood in the way of me accepting those mistakes and admitting those mistakes. Well, today I'm out here in front of all of you...
[the crowd begins an "asshole" chant]
Triple H: Today I'm out here in front of the world to admit that I made a very big mistake. I'd like to direct this to my wife, I know she's here. Stephanie, you're in the back; I know what you walked in on last week had to look pretty bad. But you've got to understand that was completely innocent. Stephanie, never, ever has there ever been anything between me and Trish Stratus, and never will there be. Stephanie, you are my true love. Last week, my mistake was in not taking into consideration your feelings. When you saw what you saw, you exploded, rightfully so. But you never gave me a chance to explain it to you, and then I got angry, and then things get said. When you're angry, you say things you don't mean, and, Steph, I didn't mean what I said. Stephanie, you have to understand something, this has been the hardest few days of my life, and I am out here in front of the world to apologize to you, and you know more than anybody how hard that is for me. Stephanie, I would like you to come out here and accept my apology and let me tell you in front of the world how sorry I am, and how much I truly do love you.
[their music hits, and Stephanie comes out to the ring]
Stephanie McMahon-Helmsley: Hunter, you have no idea how much you hurt me. Imagine how you would feel if I was bent over in front of some guy, in front of... i-in front of Kurt Angle. How'd that make you feel? You know, I can't get the image of you and Trish out of my mind, and it makes me sick! Sick to my stomach. And you know what else? For the past few weeks, you have been so obsessed with Chris Jericho that you've all but ignored me. You haven't paid me any attention at all. But you sure have paid attention to Trish.
Triple H: Steph, I know how that must have looked. But, I mean, Steph, come on, I gotta tell you, there was nothing to that. You've gotta believe me. Steph, come on. If there's one thing in our relationship that always held up, it's trust. You always know that you can trust me. I'm your husband. I would never lie to you. Steph, there is nothing between me and Trish Stratus, there never will be anything between us. Now, as far as for ignoring you with Chris Jericho, okay, maybe I was a little big obsessed with Chris Jericho, but, Steph, I was doing that in your defense. He called you the worst possible things on Earth, and I defended you. That was for you. Now, maybe it took all of my attention, but it was for you. Steph, you have to understand something, I love you. You are the most important thing in my life, okay? And this week, I can't even describe to you, you know? I mean, Steph, I've been beaten within an inch of my life in this very ring. I've been through wars with everybody. You've seen them with your own eyes, you've stood at ringside and watched me half-bleed to death. You've stood at ringside and watched me endure more pain than any of these idiots could ever endure in their whole lives...
[the crowd jeers]
Triple H: ...and that was absolutely nothing to the pain I endure when I think of you leaving me. You might as well tear my heart out, rip it up, and stomp it on the ground. The pain I have felt my whole career is nothing compared to when you look at me like that. Steph, I am out here in front of the world; I said things I shouldn't have said, I did things I shouldn't... I shouldn't have done. But I'm sorry. I know you love me, I love you, and we can move on.
[offering a bouquet of roses]
Triple H: These are for you, and I want the whole world to know, everybody here to know, that I am sorry, that I love you, and that if you will forgive me, I will be the happiest man in the world. Stephanie, I love you.
