(Classic Rock) Megadeth frontman Dave Mustaine presented wrestling icon Triple H with the first ever Spirit Of Lemmy Award on the Main Stage at Download this past weekend.

Minutes after Megadeth's performance, Mustaine invited Triple H on to the stage to present him with the award - which forms part of the Metal Hammer Golden Gods.

Triple H says: "Having Dave give me this award is a dream come true. Standing on the Lemmy Stage, named after one of my great friends and being given the Spirit Of Lemmy Award is amazing.

"I can feel Lemmy here right now, sitting up on that black cloud over there - drinking a Jack and Coke, probably. The true Spirit Of Lemmy is this f***ing crowd right here.

"This is the Spirit Of Lemmy, the Spirit Of Lemmy will never die, because of all of you." Read more here.
