While dressing media after event, 14-time world champion Triple H said that "If you can get away with it here, it's legal. I saw some comments from people on Twitter, people from States being like, 'What hell is VAR?' It gives rest of world some culture, to see that re's actually a world outside of ir world."
He continued, "You're t going to see any Video Assistant Referees, only replays we're going to give you are when you see something crazy and need to see it a second time to believe it happened - like Trent Seven getting 'Razors Edged' backwards over top rope. That's when we'll give you a 'Video Assistant Reminder' of what just happened."
