Triple H has taken to social media to eulogize heavy metal icon and WWE Hall of Famer Ozzy Osbourne. Following the death of Osbourne on July 22, Triple H took the chance to recall his own heavy metal fandom and the role Black Sabbath‘s “Paranoid” played in The Game’s life.

Triple H wrote:

Rock and Roll Heaven just received The Prince of Darkness, and if I know Lem, he asked what took you so Fkn’g long to get up there!!

Ozzy was one of a kind. His relentless passion for music was something I always looked up to. From the moment I heard the first riff of Paranoid I was hooked on this sound that I never heard before. My dream turned into reality as Ozzy would become involved with
@WWE
and eventually inducted into the Hall of Fame.

My condolences to Sharon, your children and grandchildren who had the fortunate pleasure of your time.

Give Lem a hug from me and I’ll see you on the other side Give em Hell Ozzy.

“Walking out on another stage
Another town, another place
Sometimes I don’t feel right
Nerves wound up too damn tight
People keep telling me it’s bad for my health
But kicking back don’t make it”
