ON PAPER, PAUL LEVESQUE APPEARS to be just another busy businessman with a family living in the burbs. He's 46 years old, wears a suit to the office, works late hours, lives in connecticut, and is happily married with three kids. He even finds the time to exercise. But Levesque isn't your ordinary paper-pushing number cruncher. At 6'4", 255 pounds, he's kind of a big deal - literally - that's because Levesque, World Wrestling Entertainment's Executive Vice President of Talent, Live Events & Creative, is also Triple H, current WWE Heavyweight Champion. We spoke with the Kings of Kings as he prepared to appear in his 20th WRESTLEMANIA, ON APRIL 3, covering topics that include his upcoming title bout, dealing with promatch jitters, his family life, retirement, and craving macaroni and cheese.

MF: How does it feel to enter WrestleMania as the WWE World Heavyweight Champion?

HHH: To be the WWE champion is a huge honor, but at the same time the pressure is immense.

What should we expect from WrestleMania 32?

It’s going to be big in Dallas at AT&T Stadium. Our goal is to break the WrestleMania 3 all-time indoor attendance record for entertainment. I have to think of something good for my entrance.

What are your prematch rituals to get pumped up?
