@HeckelTravis How much TV did he have to book for each week?
Did he have to book to preserve/obtain new global TV contracts?
How big was his roster?
Lawler is obviously a legend, but this is a weird comparison..

Jerry Lawler used to come into the WMC studios 15 minutes before the show and booked the show and towns for the week

Triple H says he wishes WWE creative work was as simple as some people think it is: "There's so many aspects to what we do, even just on a regular, general daily basis. You're putting something out there in some manner. 'In an ideal world, I would do this,' we don't live in an ideal world. "We live in a realistic world where 'I can't do that because of this. I can't move this here because...' It can be something as simple as, these two people don't get along, or, I know this person has an injury. "Whatever the moment, the sequence, the scenario is, there's so many factors to all of it. I wish it was as simple as what people think when they go 'Why don't they just do this?' I wish it was that simple, I really do." (What Do You Wanna Talk About? with Cody Rhodes)

@AShowQuan I beg some of the IWC to at least LOOK at previous Mania cards
People love acting like everything they view as negative right now is new
English
Well more people wanna see Speed wrestle than Giulia. Idk what to tell you.
Christopher Bullock@Mr_CWBullock
Bullshit. If you are a champion, there should be no reason that they can't make a spot for you but can make room for iShowSpeed.

@yalltitanup Hmm.. I've never seen Vrabel hold hands with Rapaport or Schefter...
English
REPORT: Dianna Russini and Mike Vrabel were both in Arizona for the NFL Competition Committee meetings in Phoenix before being photographed at the Ambiente resort on Saturday, March 28, 2026. According to eyewitnesses and photos published by Page Six on April 7, the two were seen having breakfast at 10:30 AM before spending an hour in a hot tub and later dancing and holding hands on a private rooftop bungalow.
Russini and The Athletic have clarified that she was on a hiking trip with a group of six friends, while Vrabel was visiting the area following a scouting stop at Arizona State. Both parties have firmly denied any rumors of an affair, labeling the photos as "misleading" and "taken out of context" while dismissing the speculation as "laughable." Russini maintains that meeting sources in public settings is a standard part of NFL reporting, and the league has stood by the "professional nature" of their interaction. #NFL | #NEPats

The overreaction to an innocent interaction between Mike Vrabel & Dianna Russini is 🤪. They’ve been friends for a long time, no more.

@AShowQuan Grew up watching WWF w my dad. Started as a baby (he passed when I was 7) & never really stopped. I'm 42
What hooked me: characters, action, stories. Didn't know/care what a 5* match was
Grew up w a lot of great matches but the memories etched in me the most were the storylines
English
Also there’s nothing wrong with just watching one promotion.
LobCityLeo@LobCityGimmick
Foos be like “you need to watch more promotions and “expand” your horizons” as if mfs have time to watch 25 different wrestling promotions,as if 4 days out of the week ain’t enough Ppl have lives,gfs, goals they want to accomplish, gym time, aint no way im wasting that much time
English
@HeyTerezi Good grief, what is happening?!
Do they think "Austin 3:16" is an actual Bible verse?
Do they think Taker was threatening to kill people?
Most importantly, I don't think Seth was a "sniveling little suck-up sellout full of suffering succotash" or had "donkey dung for brains"..
English
he got these niggas in their FEELINGS over a PROMO bro. oh my god he’s one of the greatest to ever do it. they always think everything that comes out of his mouth is 100% real
Angicer@Angelicaceresa1
My God the guy COOKED Punk .... and when in the comments they say "wrestling isn't that deep, relax" you know he didn't just cook he told the whole truth #romanreigns

@malikmagma23 @_xaibii Facts don't matter to them. I'm convinced they don't watch even the show
English
Malakai Black used to appear on weekly TV, and was featured in several major PPVs...
The downgrade for him since joining WWE is real... AEW let the man work. He's lucky to appear monthly, much less get a win. He went on a multi month losing streak during his "barely any TV time" run in 2025.
Why did he even bother with signing? Why should anyone in AEW ever sign a WWE deal?

@Asilnur9 @_centon_ @fangirlviper Fall for what?
Every single wrestling fan who claims to know wrestling should know by now that nobody is just straight shooting without the company knowing at least a guideline of what they're gonna say
Good grief, it's not rocket science
English
@_centon_ @fangirlviper IWC is dumb, and WWE knew very well they would fall for it.
English
TKO got so angry about the situation that they even showed support for Punk on Instagram.
English
@ryansatin You're either purposely ignoring wrestling history and the fact that this match isn't the main event or you're just that ignorant
Either way, congrats on the attention you're getting from it
English
@saad_arif929 @DanteOnDeck They also spoiled the demon before his Mania 35 match with Lashley...
Vince was in charge then, not TKO
Listen, TKO sucks when it comes to certain things, but we don't need to act like Vince was some martyr when he was in charge who never cared about selling tickets
English
@DanteOnDeck TKO's strategy, unfortunately
Instead of surprising us fans and gaining the pops during the live event
They are more focused on selling tickets
In other words, they are saying fan excitement can take the backseat
We want to make money
English
I’m so confused. What does WWE gain from announcing The Demon returning on social media instead of in front of a live audience? If he returned at WrestleMania unannounced, the pop would’ve been legendary.

@BookedHorribly @BrandonTheHeel @Noahgilberto19 You do realize adults existed in the 80's too, right?
English
@BrandonTheHeel @Noahgilberto19 We were young kids tho. A Hogan character today would do nothing for me. As adults I’d rather watch guys who can go in the ring the most. Promos and personality are part of it but give me good bell to bell action.

If you can't wrestle, you shouldn't be anywhere near the main event
Tim V of Bodyslam.net@timvofbodyslam
What do you believe is most important to be a main event level wrestler: Mic skills or wrestling skills?

@CapnYappin @jennmint Cool. I was the biggest "Hulkamaniac" there was as a kid. Doesn't mean he didn't end up being a racist piece of shit 🤷♂️

@jennmint You’re fuckin DUMB dumb. Holy shit. Without Hogan we wouldn’t have wrestling today 🤡

“YouRe not A reAL WreSTliNg FaN”
Shut the entire fuck up. I do not ever have to acknowledge a racist.

@rajmuker -Shane McMahon would make himself world champ
-Out of curiosity, who are you talking about?
-They've signed a boatload of collegiate athletes
-The Goon, Duke Droese, and Abe knuckleball Schwartz are on line 1
-There's been solid edge
-If you're that damn horny, watch some porn
English
How to make WWE watchable again:
• Remove Noseman Triple H from the head of creative and put Shane McMahon in charge.
• Stop pushing Triple H’s favorite darlings...either release them or turn them into jobbers.
• Sign more collegiate athletes and charismatic, attractive women stars instead of indie flippy wrestlers.
• Bring back real gimmicks and larger-than-life characters.
• Bring back the TV-14 era and the edgy attitude that made WWE exciting.
• Bring back segments like bra-and-panties matches ,bikini segments and the unpredictable entertainment that once made WWE must-watch TV.
WWE needs to bring back personality, star power, and entertainment .. not just bland soulless wrestling.

@ShadesOfBoujeee So she'll either...
Become a champion...

@ClarkGrifffin @ChandranTheMan @elliottswrstlin No he's not. The build was literally saved by the sit down interview & the insane video pkg they put together from interactions that had nothing to do w Debra
Until the last stretch, the build was trash & involved someone unnecessary, for 2 guys who had tons of history together
English
@ChandranTheMan @elliottswrstlin Well then you’re lying to everyone else about what made the feud work
English
They dropped the Debra storyline headed into Mania because everyone knew it wasn't working.
Guess you forgot?
ChanMan@ChandranTheMan
Never forget: WWE once had a whole storyline where Debra (Stone Cold’s wife at the time) was made The Rock’s manager heading into WrestleMania X7… Was it unnecessary when you already had Rock vs Austin? Absolutely. But nobody remembers that part. Why? Because the match delivered, and WrestleMania X7 is still considered one of the greatest ever. Did Randy vs Cody NEED Pat McAfee? Of course not. But Rock vs Austin turned out just fine despite the weird build. Not everything in the story needs to hit. If the match delivers, that’s what people remember.
English
@JREwing7893 @Narcolepsyboy_ Why am I not surprised people resorted to name calling. I promise you it's not that serious dude. Go outside, enjoy yourself
That being said, I'm not the one playing revisionist history, acting like people loved every Mania build when all you guys do is bitch about everything
English
@LenK02 @Narcolepsyboy_ Ppl didn’t hate that at all retard. Nice try at trying to revise history. The only one upset by it was CM Bitch. Everyone knew Rock and Cena was going to main event because it was literally nothing bigger than that. Go suck Punk’s dick some more
English
We let nostalgia blind us 😭, which I get we all do it sometimes. But these times in Wwe weren't that great either Mania 26 is like a 2 match show, 28 was a good Mania but the product at the time was suffering a bit as well.
Sahil@Sahil_S4554
Someone please take me back ❤️🩹

@SuplexInsider Shane McMahon would 100% book himself to be world champion
English
@Slappa_WWE People love bringing up Gewirtz like he wouldn't just do everything Rock wanted..
English
If Triple H was released he'd be replaced with a bigger YES man that'll probably have much less knowledge when it comes to WWE
Triple H is the only defence to these stories but he can't defend them all if he wants to keep his job
But y'all don't think like that.
Tribal Wrestling@TribalMegastar
Triple H needs to be released. He can't book anymore bro 😭😭😭 #SmackDown
English
@jennmint It continues to amaze me that ppl on here act as if, prior to HHH, they enjoyed everything Vince spewed out
The revisionist history, the acting as if every wrestling angle has always been the same & has always been to everyone's liking, up til the past year or 2, is mind-numbing
English
I watch it for my favorites. I may not always like the direction of creative but at the end of the day it’s just a scripted tv show. I don’t like every episode of every show I watch but I still tune in.

how the hell do you even enjoy wwe genuinely
