Triple H makes Nick Aldis the GM of WWE SmackDown again

Triple H reinstated Nick Aldis as SmackDown General Manager last night following his match against Gunther.

Aldis returned to the ring for the first time since 2023 and battled The Ring General at WWE SummerSlam. Gunther won the match via submission, and Aldis got a standing ovation after the match.

Aldis then had a conversation with The King of Kings and attempted to resign as GM. However, Triple H told him to call things down the middle moving forward and announced that he was still the GM of SmackDown.

“I’m proud of what you did. I’m proud of what you accomplished. I’m proud of everything you did tonight. But as for this letter of resignation, well, I believe in what you did. You’re reinstated as the General Manager of SmackDown. Lay off of Gunther. Call things down the middle and let’s get back to work,” he said.

Triple H says he found out a few days ago that Oasis for Nick Aldis’ theme song was cleared “I was thrilled to tell him, ‘Oasis is in, dude. We’re doing it.’” #SummerSlam
