? people always did thatIt's telling how much good will HHH has with fans that people are blaming the wrestlers for getting the titles instead of the guy booking it.

It's weird to me that Spring Breakin' is framed as a 2 parter but they already defended the main titles on show 1, what's the big hook for part 2?
Anyway the women's triple threat was neat, did not like how they chose to end Trick/Iija, man did not exactly earn the multiple H Bomb kickouts, seeing that there was no real feud and the match was like 10 minutes but oh well.
At this point I'm wondering if this is a meme or if people actually think Becky is acting even remotely like Hogan did.
It's a shame for 2 weeks in a row the Trick Williams matches felt like they needed 5 more minutes for different reasons, but the story of Ilja and Trick didn't need a feud - it was a professional rivalry/respect story from pretty much the beginning. They faced off 4 times over the past year, with Trick originally wanting to prove himself on the roster instead of being the side man for Carmello Hayes by stepping up to Ilja, with Ilja respecting Trick's hustle when most folks would play to other tactics against him. Then over the year as they had the rematches and Ilja won the NXT Championship you saw Trick get progressively better against Ilja but still lack something until this week when Trick had to turn to using Ilja's moves against him. If it wasn't a TV match and got the time, they probably could have shown that a bit better, but it's what it was.It's weird to me that Spring Breakin' is framed as a 2 parter but they already defended the main titles on show 1, what's the big hook for part 2?

WWE will probably front load it for a month or so with main roster folks to get eyes on it before settling down, but as long as CW don't try and butcher the marketing/promo, I assume they'll get similar to what NXT is getting just now once things settle.
It's even more hilarious when you know Orton is bored as fuck of his current theme but chose to keep it over a def rebel "effort"."Def Rebel, who've produced WWE's music since 2019, did a remix of Randy Orton's theme for his return last November. Orton turned it down within minutes of hearing it, per Brennan on Fightful's YouTube"
bro 💀💀💀

Not sure but wouldn't surprise me. Suppose hearing the same song night in/night out would make you hate it sooner rather than later.
I guess I'm surprised they frontloaded the main titles on part 1.The tag team and North America belts Will be defended and it'll also have the gimmick NXT underground match. From the result of that 6 Man tag from night 1, I can see the heritage Cup to be added to the card.
Ohhh, there was more story here than I realised, that's what I get for mostly just reading reports for the last couple of years, some things don't sink in that way.It's a shame for 2 weeks in a row the Trick Williams matches felt like they needed 5 more minutes for different reasons, but the story of Ilja and Trick didn't need a feud - it was a professional rivalry/respect story from pretty much the beginning.

Hulk Hogan has taken credit for discovering The Undertaker.
"It's kind of funny how The Undertaker came about. I was doing a movie called Suburban Commando and we needed a couple of really big aliens, we had one actor and we couldn't find another guy big enough. So I remembered Mean Mark Calaway from the NWA he was working in Atlanta Georgia for [Jim] Barnett at the time, so I had somebody hunt him down and we brought him to Hollywood and The Undertaker Mark Calaway was one of the bounty hunters in the movie Suburban Commando.
"We became really good friends and once we were done I said 'Man you should come to New York.' So I brought Mark Calaway in to meet Vince [McMahon] and Vince took a long look at him, he was a monster at six foot ten and in really good shape and Vince goes 'I'm gonna call you The Undertaker.' I just said 'Oh my god, this will never work with the bodybags and dead people' but I was wrong on that one, so The Undertaker was born."
Despite these claims, The Undertaker was already signed with WWE while filming Suburban Commando.

If memory serves, it was a SmackDown episode in 2006 where Orton came out using This Fire Burns as promo for the Wreckless Intent album.If I remember correctly Orton actually lobbied for it to be his theme, he actually came out to it in a video somewhere, but it was decided(probably by Vince) that it didn't fit him.
I can't wait for tomorrow. Great profile picture.Ah it's been a few days since we got a CM Punk update from you. 😂
Just to confirm, WWE said in their tweet announcing he'd be at the Draft shows that he will appear live at the events - not necessarily on TV. I bet he does a live thing for the crowd and just appears on TV on Monday when he's draft-eligible.
As soon as I see Hulk Hogan has said something, I know I'm in for a laugh.Even before I started reading it I knew it was bullshit but I can't imagine anyone takes Hogan seriously anymore. Man has been full of shit since the 80s.
