Also inspiration for the worst lyric of all time from Eminem: "You heard of Kris Kristofferson? Well I am Piss Pissedofferson"

Yup, apparently Kristofferson was a semi-regular presence at NXT shows. Triple H reportedly had no idea Garrett Dylan (which seems like a nod to Pat Garrett & Billy The Kid, starring Bob Dylan) was his son.
