In an interview with TMZ, WWE’s Executive Vice President of Global Talent Strategy & Development Triple H discussed the passing of Shad Gaspard, noting that he expects that the company will honor him on tonight’s WWE SmackDown broadcast on FOX.

“This was all happening in real-time. Wednesday night, we put something at the beginning of the show (WWE NXT), I’m sure we’ll be doing something on SmackDown. He was such a great guy, Steph and I saw him maybe 6 months ago, we were at FOX for a meeting, he was coming out of the lobby, we were coming into the lobby, we probably stood there for 20 minutes talking. He was just the greatest guy, he was finding success in all these other things, he was doing Hollywood and everything else. With the circumstances around all of this, his son, thank God he’s okay, knowing that he said ‘save my son’ and that was the last thing he did, that’s all you need to know about the guy.”
