One of the thousands at one of Metallica's Sphere shows in Las Vegas was WWE chief content officer Paul “Triple H” Levesque and his wife, Stephanie McMahon.
Suffice it to say he loved the show. Trips gave a short and sweet review of the show, writing, “Metallica at The Sphere…
F’N INCREDIBLE!!!” on X, formerly Twitter.

It looked like a fun night out for the couple. McMahon is even laughing in one of the pictures. Triple H was really taking in the spectacle when the Master of Puppets album cover was displayed on the giant LED screen.
Triple H had a nice night off from his responsibilities with WWE. He is the chief content officer, overseeing the creative direction of the storylines.
WWE is about to hold its annual Crown Jewel event, the next PLE after Money in the Bank on Oct. 10. Crown Jewel is currently slated to take place in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia.
Metallica's Sphere residency
Metallica is a few weeks into their 24-date Life Burns Faster residency at the Sphere. So far, they have performed seven shows, so they are almost a third of the way through the band's first-ever residency.
The band will continue performing at the high-tech venue until Mar. 13, 2027. They will then resume the M72 World Tour in May 2027. The tour has been going on since Apr. 27, 2023, and the itinerary will include 111 shows by the time it's over.
Life Burns Faster has been well received by attendees, including Triple H. Each show has shaken up the setlist, giving multiple-time attendees a new experience each show.
Metallica is one of many iconic artists to headline shows at the Sphere. John Mayer—who previously did a residency with Dead & Company at the venue—will take over the Sphere after Metallica in April 2027.
