WWE has received widespread acclaim for its tribute video for the late Connor Michelak, a young kid who passed away recently due to cancer. Connor became close to the WWE family after they granted a wish for him a couple of years ago, and gave himself the ring name “The Crusher.”
In response to the video being posted, Triple H took to his Twitter account with the following:
Connor, thank you for reminding me what life is about…..I could never repay you. https://t.co/8RZ42pKXec.

The video has been picked up by many media outlets across the country, and showcases what WWE did for him when they found out the nine-year-old didn’t have much time left. Triple H let him smack him across the face, and took the pinfall in front of all the other WWE Superstars.
The tribute in its entirety can be found below.
Editor’s Note:
WWE is the best at what they do, and this is no exception. It’s insane that so many people could get attached to one kid. Infectious, really.
