During the press conference after SummerSlam, Triple H spoke about Brock Lesnar and Cody Rhodes’ moment a bit. He confirmed that their showing of respect after the match was not part of the original plan at all.

I know that Cody said he hasn’t had time yet to digest the Brock Lesnar moment after their match. Completely unplanned, completely in the moment, and for me, you know, Brock Lesnar is such a unique athlete, but I don’t think he gets the credit for being one of the all-time greats at this, right? You know, unbelievable athlete at the highest of levels, but just talking about sports entertainment, in my opinion, one of the greatest of all time.
